MVP hype for Allen

Something tells me that this "Lamar v Josh" MVP controversy is just stoking Mahomes's competitive fires, and that he's somehow using it as a way to feel "disrespected" by the national media, the Ravens and the Bills.  Anyone who thinks KC won't be the toughest of outs is kidding themselves...      

I'd bet based on how the media has been glazing Lamar, that we'd start hearing the "Lamar is better than Mahomes" chatter if ravens go to the SB. It's a what have you done for me lately league.

Let's hope we don't have to find out...

If Lamar wins it I’m cool with it.  His numbers are historic.  Correct me if I’m wrong but we’ve never seen anything like it in the regular season.  I can’t take away anything from either Josh or Lamar—they are special and two of my favorite players to watch. We are fortunate to see both of these players in their primes lead their teams against one another on Sunday night.

Anybody notice that last year all the infographics comparing MVP candidates show total turnovers, but suddenly now they are showing total TDs and INTs. Very curious.

And all the sudden this week some of the team graphics started to show how the Bills had fewer turnovers than the Ravens.  Where were those graphics before the MVP vote?

As Romo said last Josh has been very good with ball security “lately”. Dude has been historically stingy in the postseason.

If the league wants to annoint Lamar every year let them bathe in their obvious fawning.  We'll see how good Lamar really is when Henry ages out.

They'll just go back to the rational they used last year. They eye test and "what value truly means" and they'll return to the "stats shouldn't be considered" speech again.   I'm not the biggest everyone is against us guy but the two faced commentary on what makes an MVP is blatant to me that Josh is not, not may never be the player they will recognize for his talents.

I feel like, if you're gonna give Lamar the MVP, fine, but make Henry co-MVP, otherwise it has to be Josh. There's no way anyone will convince me that Lamar is the sole MVP of a team that has a 1900 yd beast, future hof RB. 9 Pro Bowlers to 2, 6 All Pros to 1. It should be Josh in a landslide.

So turns out I was wrong- they actually still do care about his tweets

 

Makes a lot more sense tbh

It’s a much bigger issue than some people want to admit, nothing can be done about now. A good lesson for kids to be careful what you put out into the interweb, it can come back to hurt your grown self in ways you can’t even imagine.

It's only an issue because small minded, bigoted people make it an issue.

The worst thing about this article is that it constructs and then knocks down a straw man claiming that "no one" questions Allen's pocket awareness or whether or not he's "QBackery" enough.  Someone should send this lazy writer this article whch is only one of many questioning whether Allen could be an NFL QB:

Yawn. 

[Real McClappy]

Hope all the tools that voted Lamar for his 3rd MVP wake the F up now.

[Doc]

I'm sorry but if 2 players on a team's offense are up for MVP...it means neither is.  Sure they may have had AP1 or 2 seasons based on feeding off each other, but they're neither is the MVP.

If the NFL awards Lamar a third MVP, it will be embarrassing for the NFL. Almost as embarrassing as the officiating.

I said it earlier this week.  I hope Lamar gets it.

[Warcodered]

Should be a good award show, either Allen gets it which is great, or it's going to be hilariously awkward.

One team has nine All-pro’s, one team has one.  The team with one just won the game.  I would think the one All-pro that is carrying his team to the Conference championship is the MVP, but what do I know???

[Ralonzo]

Narrative on NFLN is that Lamar was MVP in the game with an 88-yard MVP drive but his teammates let him down. And also he didn't have his #1 receiving weapon so we shouldn't hold his "two boo-boos" (Direct quote I kid you not) against him.
