It's not happening. Not because Lamar isn't great but there are other issues at play. He would literally have to have triple Josh Allen's production. Reason being is Lamar won it last year with decent stats but not extraordinary at all. His team was the 1 seed and had excellent D and special teams too. He flamed out in the playoffs, again. He doesn't beat Mahomes. Voters just aren't giving it to Lamar a 3rd time, especially when Allen is having the season he is having.

I don't know. in 2023 Lamar won that National TV road game vs San Fran late last season and he went from 2nd in the MVP race to leading at -180 with two weeks remaining and he was basically unanimous. Josh right now is the favorite at -1000, Lamar is second at +700. That is a grand canyon sized gap. Barkley fell all the way to +1300. Allen's last 4 games, all nationally televised in which two were on the road at quality teams. 1,114 passing yards 223 rush yards 15 TD's (8 passing, 7 rushing) 1 int/fumbles (zero the past 3 games) 0 sacks taken You can't play QB any better than that. Someone let me know when another QB puts together a 4 game stretch with a stat line like that. Not to mention he beat the best team in the AFC, the 9-0 Chiefs, and the best team in the NFC, 12-1 Lions. They have scored 30+ points in 11 games in which national media has said it's a down year for Buffalo and he doesn't have the talent around him like Lamar does or Philly/Detroit. Josh will not have to artificially inflate his stats against the Pats and Jets. Voters know those game might be "stay healthy" games for the Bills at this point. Josh proved it. Several TV commenters like Rex, Greenberg and Tedy Bruschi have said the race is over this morning. He left Detroit with the MVP in his carry on bag and it's awesome for him and the city of Buffalo.

The Bills Oline can dominate the trenches against anyone especially when they are super motivated (i.e. playoff games). If the Bills needs to use ground and pound in rough weather the RB room is terrific and they can win that way. In past years I feel as though the RB room was not as deep as this crew and it depended more on Allen to make splashy pass plays which is hard in cold/wind.

Goff is the first QB to throw for 400+ yards and 5 TD's, no int's and lose. A few weeks ago, he's also the only QB to throw 5 interceptions and win. How crazy is that.

That’s the thing. Buffalo’s offense is lights out in these two dome games but the D is really not up to stopping these two very good QBs and their weapons. So the tradeoff is our offense suffers a bit in weather games but the D really plays better in that environment.

The 2nd onsides was well executed imo because they targeted our defensive player, Taron. I’d rather kick to him than our pass catchers that were lined up. But Taron is the man and made the play after it bounced into his mask at first.

this doesn’t look great folks. plus Houston has a nasty defense and a capable offense. Pittsburgh will be a handful there, and Denver will want to beat KC in the worst way possible.

Although the secret sauce of this defense are takeaways. and the takeaway in the 3rd quarter changed the entire complexion of the game.

Ouch! thank god for JA17 and the offense on this brilliant win today, but what do we make of this? I really don’t think this pass defense the last two weeks can lead them to an AFC title let alone Super Bowl. How does it get fixed?

The last run when he got slung down on his shoulder. he grimaced when he got up. The field mics i though picked up someone asking him if he’s ok.

Ok i know this isn’t the thread but i don’t want that matchup

Bass’ eyes look so much like Norwoods. jeebuz

D needs a rest.

why are Goffs throws so often wobbly today?

Cincinnati will finish with 9 wins. Will that get them in the playoffs ?

monster kick

why is Kincaid pointing. Don’t point at dudes. Refs hate that. Fantastic conversion though

Cole Bishop man, all he does is look at the back of dudes jerseys

Is Milano too slow for this game?

Not every drive ends in points, gotta play the game. great punt.

This staff is just weak at the end of halves. They make a time tested philosophy so complicated.

He choked. it’s like a pro golfer missing a 4 inch tap in putt. i mean no excuse

Agree, hail mary’s have like a 12% success rate. not to mention maybe someone gets mugged and they throw a rare flag. We gifted Detroit the end of half. didn’t understand why we didn’t take an easy sideline pattern for 7 yards on the play before to get a long FG chance. terrible
