Allen's sack-drive scoring rate (32.5% career, 34.7% since 2020) far exceeds league average.

Allen's offenses have converted drives featuring a sack into scores at a 32.5% rate across his career (12.9% TD, 19.6% FG), more than 15 percentage points above the NFL average of 21.1% (7.6% TD, 13.5% FG from 2001–2025 across 27,000+ drives). Since 2020, Allen's scoring rate on sack drives climbs to 34.7% (14.0% TD, 20.7% FG)—roughly double the league average TD rate and 13+ points above average scoring rate. In 2026 through Week 7, the Bills have posted a 72.7% scoring rate and 36.4% TD rate on 12 sack drives, demonstrating elite resilience in a scenario that typically derails offensive momentum.
