Bills Rams Prepare For Monday Clash Around Red Zone Scorers

The Buffalo Bills and Los Angeles Rams will meet Monday night at SoFi Stadium in a Week 5 interconference matchup featuring two high-powered offenses, with Josh Allen, Kyren Williams and Puka Nacua entering the game as key touchdown threats based on their early 2026 production.

According to Sports Illustrated's iHeart sports coverage, Allen opened the season with two touchdowns in each of the first three games and added another score in the Week 4 loss to the New England Patriots. His 2026 pace is ahead of his previous single-season rushing touchdown mark of 15, set in 2023.

The report noted Allen has already recorded 12 rushing attempts from inside the 10-yard line this season. The Bills enter the matchup with an implied team total of 25.5 points, while the Rams are listed as a 3.5-point underdog in the matchup analysis.

Los Angeles running back Kyren Williams has remained a major part of the Rams offense despite increased competition from Blake Corum. According to the report, Williams has collected 15 red-zone touches through four games and has scored four total touchdowns, including one receiving score.

Williams' involvement as a receiver has also increased, with his routes run rising from 17 in Week 2 to 26 in Week 3 and a season-high 41 in Week 4, according to Sports Illustrated's iHeart sports coverage.

The Bills defense has allowed six total touchdowns to running backs this season, including three rushing and three receiving scores, according to the report. Buffalo has limited running backs to 3.8 yards per carry but has allowed production near the goal line.

Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua returned in Week 4 after missing two games because of groin soreness and immediately scored a touchdown. According to Sports Illustrated's iHeart sports coverage, he recorded a two-yard rushing touchdown in the first half of that game.

Nacua finished the 2025 season with 10 total touchdowns, including a rushing score, while Davante Adams led the Rams with 14 receiving touchdowns, according to the report. Nacua has also averaged at least one red-zone target per game in each of his first three seasons.

The report added that Nacua has eight red-zone rushing attempts over his first three seasons, while the Bills have allowed six receiving touchdowns to wide receivers through the first four games of 2026. The Bills and Rams are scheduled to play Monday night at SoFi Stadium.
