Lamar Jackson closing the gap on Josh Allen in MVP race

Who is your pick? One thing Lamar has going for him is he just set the career mark for most rushing yards by a quarterback. That shouldn't factor into a single-season award like MVP, but judges can be persuaded by such things.




Lamar Jackson
BAL • QB • #8
CMP% - 67.9
YDs -3787
TD - 37
INT - 4
YD/Att -8.87

Josh Allen
BUF • QB • #17
CMP% - 63.8
YDs - 3549
TD - 26
INT - 6
YD/Att - 7.78

Allen had better numbers of the two last year but Jackson was the media/sports commentator pick and was made out to be the inevitable choice. This year it's the exact opposite.

That being said, both Allen and Jackson have had an incredible year. Just looking at overall body of work, I'd lean towards Allen, but Jackson's numbers are great. It feels like splitting hairs between them.
