‘But once he got to a certain point there about the midseason of the ’03 season, and then in the playoffs and from then on, his level of performance and play and consistency was at the very top of the league.’

Allen has been on a path to stardom throughout his six seasons as a pro and recently set an NFL record after picking securing his fourth straight season with 40 total touchdown season during a 24-22 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers.

Bill Belichick compared Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen to Brady after their third years

Allen recently set an NFL record with four straight seasons of 40 or more total touchdowns

Allen and the Bills are set to face the Patriots this weekend as the regular season nears it’s end

So far this season Allen has thrown for 3,778 yards, 27 touchdowns, and 15 interceptions.

He has also rushed for 413 yards and 13 touchdowns while leading the Bills to a 9-6 record.

The comparison is somewhat curious however due to several factors with one of the most notable ones being the differences in how each QB started their NFL journey.

Allen was selected with the No. 7 overall pick in 2018 before going on to start 11 games as a rookie, meanwhile Brady was not picked until the sixth round and did not step on the field until Drew Bledsoe suffered a serious injury.

But together with Belichick, Brady won six of his seven Super Bowl titles in a formidable partnership.

The two QB’s also play the game very differently seeing as Allen is much more of a runner and risk taker with the ball, while Brady was essentially a statue in the pocket who took a much safer approach when throwing the ball.

Buffalo and New England have had much different seasons this year ahead of their matchup this week.

Unlike the Bills who are currently set to make the playoffs as a wild card seed barring a collapse down the final stretch of the regular season the Patriots are currently 4-11 and were eliminated from post season contention weeks ago.
