Happy for Josh and the entire Bill organization to be recognized. Let's build on this and continue to build this roster so we are in playing in the Superbowl this time next year. 

Good post and I know everyone forgets what Allen like when he was drafted and think he was a MVP candidate. But this dysfunctional team that missed the playoffs for 17 years who couldn’t find a qb to save their life; took an “inaccurate” qb from powerhouse Wyoming; the wrong Josh; and helped him developed into a MVP. 
 

I hated the Allen mainly because I never thought the Buffalo Bills could ever develop the “toolsy” prospect and they did. Never been happier to admit I was horribly, horribly wrong.

Chris Simms and Dan Orlovsky are real ones.

 

Tom Brady and Teddy Bruschi, retired and still managing to stay on my ***** list.

Emmanuel Acho too. I thought he’d ultimately vote Josh, but he was a little wobbly toward the end. 
 

Edit: wrong Acho! 🤦‍♂️

I fully believe we still haven't seen Allen's best season yet.  I truly believe he will be even better next season providing Beane actually invests in the WR position

 

Doubt it, we're a run first team now under Brady.   Look forward to more sub 4000 pass yard seasons

[Success]

Only 50 voters - and 2 of them are Brady & Bruschi?

 

Cripes.

He's probably the most smug NFL commentator out there.  He's like the Aaron Rodgers of the NFL media.

😂😂wouldn't be a Josh Allen MVP thread w out @Richard Nogginweirdly pocket watching

 

Ffs people

 

Oof that's certainly a way to perceive things.

 

I think it's fine to celebrate Josh Allen's professional sports achievements without saying he deserves it more than working folks who have remained resilient and optimistically obsessed (and willing to spend their money) for decades/generations with the Bills. That's just silly.

 

(And I do not care AT ALL that Allen didn't mention fans in his acceptance speech. He was nervous and emotional. It's not about recognition. Recognition is only monetizable for Allen. It's actually expensive for us fans, eventually, when he and the team have ultimate success.)

[stevestojan]

So how many companies just popped up solely to make shirts that say “Be good, do good. God bless, and Go Bills.” 

 

I mean, I’ll buy three…

Does "Go Bills" at the end count?

You can still rack up a bunch of passing stats with a 50/50 run/pass split.  The bills were kind of a mess early on in the passing game I can’t see why next year won’t be better in that regard

His entire career from draft to tonight's speech, counts. He's good in our book.

Why care whether someone thinks a QB deserves a SB more than the fans is the point

 

It's such a miserable direction to take a thread

You watched that incredibly classy speech (compared to the 3 hour mess before it) and came away wondering why Allen didn’t thank the fans? 
 

Talk about crabs in a bucket.

The poster responded to the criticism with cluelessness, and it went from there. I'm not AT ALL worried about how much fans were mentioned by Josh Allen. He's mostly beyond reproach in my book. I think everyone is happy to attack critiques of Allen, but I'm not someone presenting ANY critiques of him today.
