The NFL season is already flying by, as Week 6 action will conclude with a matchup between the Bills and Jets on "Monday Night Football."
Josh Allen, arguably the biggest star in the matchup, will be looking to lead the Bills to a 4-2 record this season with a potential win over the Jets.
However, in past matchups between Buffalo and New York, the Jets have given Allen some trouble. When it comes to both forcing turnovers and bringing defensive pressure, New York has statistically been one of the toughest opponents that Allen's faced in his career.
As Allen and the Bills line up against the Jets for the first time in 2024, here's a look at the quarterback's career numbers vs. New York.

Josh Allen stats vs. Jets
Monday night's game will be Allen's 12th in his career against the Jets. In those games, the Bills are 7-4, but Buffalo and New York have also split their past four meetings.
Throughout those 11 games against the Jets, Allen has totaled 2,552 passing yards (232.0 per game), 12 passing touchdowns (1.1 per game), and 11 interceptions (one per game). For context, Allen has thrown for 23,648 passing yards, 175 touchdowns, and 78 interceptions in his career — so the Jets have come away with 14.1% of the quarterback's INTs.
However, Allen has yet to throw a pick through five games in 2024. This season, the Bills quarterback has 945 passing yards, eight passing touchdowns, and two rushing scores.
Below is a look at Allen's stats in the air vs. the Jets throughout his career.
| Wins-Losses | Comp. % | Passing yards | AVG | Pass TDs | INTs | Rating |
| 7-4 | 63.1% | 2,552 | 6.8 | 12 | 11 | 81.5 |
The last time the two teams met in November 2023, Allen went for 275 passing yards, three touchdowns, and an interception. The Bills won that game, 32-6.

Jets sacks vs. Josh Allen
While Allen may boast the better record against New York through 11 games, the Jets have done an excellent job at getting pressure on the star quarterback when they line up against him.
Allen has taken 25 sacks from the Jets in his career, his most against any opponent. While that mark is easily inflated by the fact that the Bills and Jets play twice a year as division opponents, it's still more than the Patriots and Dolphins have been able to register against Allen.
After Sunday of Week 6 and before their "Monday Night Football" matchup, the Jets have 18 sacks this season, which is tied with the Bears for the sixth-most in the NFL. Allen could once again be challenged by New York's aggressive defensive line as each side looks to build momentum for a potential run at the 2024 AFC East title.
