Has Josh Allen put himself back in the race for MVP this year??

It would require a pretty epic set of circumstances for Josh to pass Stafford and Maye. I would love to see those circumstances unfold, but it's just not going to happen. 

 

To me it would first require bills win the division over the patriots.  So bills win out, and pats lose to buffalo and miami (i think this works or is close, but don't quote me).  I'd also say that it would require that the rams finish a WC, and ideally with a worse record than Buffalo at 13-4.  

 

If that happened - Odd's aren't bad that buffalo is 1 in the conference (maybe 2 if denver tops in tiebreakers).  And I would think Allen would have had a great stretch of games to get the team there.

if he looks better than Maye, we win and somehow take the division it's Stafford or Allen 

Stafford has 2 top WR's....must be nice

I think Maye and Allen are going to cancel each other out.  Allen will outplay Maye this weekend and we'll win comfortably, but the Pats will win the division due to the tiebreakers so heavily favoring them (they'll only lose one more game).  But the voters will see Allen going 6-0 down the stretch while Maye goes 3-2, so they won't give it to Maye, but Allen won't get it because he doesn't win his division.

 

Its Stafford's award this year; he'd have to lay an egg against both Detroit and Seattle to lose it.

if Maye takes them from worst to first, he's a lock.

Allen is literally the most valuable player in the league but that's not what the MVP award is for. Yes as stupid as that sounds. It's more of a season achievement award for the QB of a top seed. I think if New England goes 3-1 to end the season Maye will get it. If they go 2-2 it will go to Stafford. Slight chance of Jordan Love getting it over Stafford if the Packers finish with the #1 seed. Anyone other than those three I'd give 100:1 odds at this point. For Allen to get it we'd have to win out and have everything else happen just right for us to end as the #1 seed.

I think he could get it with the #2 seed, but Stafford would have to put up a couple stinkers and the Rams couldn’t also be #1 seed.

 

It actually isn’t impossible that the Rams drop to a Wild Card. Seahawks are tied with them and they and still have a H2H. Also Seahawks outperformed them in the first matchup but Darnold went full Jets-mode in that game.
