That won't be why Lamar wins it. He will win it because he has better counting stats. Not counting yesterday Allen had 6 games below 200 yards passing. Lamar beat him by 400 yards on the ground and in the air. I don't really think it's that close tbh. One of Allen's best games is when Buffalo lost(LA).
I’m not arguing those facts. But I’ve heard the head to head argument proffered on multiple media outlets. The problem with the QB position and using strict numbers is so much of your stats depend on team style of play and game situation. A major reason burrow has the numbers he does is because his team was down so often they had to throw. I do think overall team performance matters quite a bit for the mvp award and number are just one part of the equation. This isn’t best offensive player award. The fact the bills had a better record and had wins over both number 1 conference seeds in my opinion greatly bridges any numbers gap between he and Lamar .
I think Allen will win MVP and he'd get my vote personally but I will not complain at all if Lamar wins. They both had remarkable seasons. Drastic difference from last year when nobody had a remarkable season.
I'd take Goff over Herbert and def over Stroud. But I get your point.
James Cook isn’t a slouch himself.
I stand corrected. Looks like Lamar won MVP.
I think Henry was probably the best RB in the league this season (including Barkley) but defenses are definitely more worried about Lamar than Henry.
Henry also averaged well over a ypc with Baltimore than he did last year which is 100% the Lamar effect.
The NFL alt-22 nerd community loves to make excuses for Herbert. They are like Gordon Ramsay on the kids chef showHerbert better do something. God he sucks when it matters (so far in his career). Lol
Also, Chargers defense scored 9 points on the Texans only TD drive.
