Let's be honest.
There's a much greater chance of Allen winning MVP than this team holding up the Lombardi trophy on February 9th. That goes for most teams.
So yeah....it would be great to see our guy win MVP.
Definitely not.
BTW, I've got plenty of Chiefs, Packers, and Steelers friends. All have said they would rather face Lamar in the postseason than Allen.
There's no question who plays better in big games.
I understand team above player blah blah.
But play Allen in week 18 and go for the MVP. The very injured guys can rest. Patriots aren't going to fool us twice.
I've never understood "rest to avoid injuries." Injuries can happen at any time. SB, mini camp, regular season.
Tbh....no. I just don't see this defense holding up.
Which brings me to another topic. If your a defensive HC, and your defense keeps blowing playoff games, what exactly are you bringing to the table?
And Lamar gets a game against Cleveland. Whereas Allen will likely be sitting.
It's possible because Allen would not be impressive in beating two bottom feeders (assuming he struggles against NYJ). Meanwhile, Lamar would be excellent in beating two playoff teams on national TV.
Allen sitting week 18 while Lamar gets to pad his stats doesn't help either. I hope the team keeps out only the most injured players in week 18.
This.
Needs 3 total TD's minimum. No picks. Just an overall great game.
Unfortunately, if it's a repeat of the NE game, it's going to be very tough for him to win.
