I stand corrected. The bills are 9-6 and have a chance to get to 10 wins and a playoff berth. They should do it this week but they play the Patriots and bills to finish the season and the Patriots already beat them once. If the bills miss the playoffs it will be because they lost to a lot of bad teams. But maybe Allen has done enough to get mvp
Is there a specified amount of games a player has to play?
Basically yes.
That is the odd thing about Jackson all of a sudden being the clear favorite. He wasn't even a top contender for most of the season, but now that the Ravens beat the 49ers in a game where Purdy was terrible and the Ravens offense was good but not great (343 total yards, which was below their season average), Jackson is suddenly the big favorite. It makes zero sense.
It's 50 national media members.
Even though the 49ers had the turnovers and gave the ravens some very short fields (not including all the penalties as well) the 49ers and Purdy still had more offense than the Ravens as well
We really gonna act like the Ravens didn’t take their foot off the gas in the 4th quarter skewing the final stats? Baltimore threw 2 passes in the 4th and gained 25 total yards since they were in complete control. They had 318 yards of offense in 3 quarters. Outgained the Niners 318-260 to the point they went up 3 scores late in the 3rd and then it was 169-25 for the Niners after that. This is kind of my point about Lamar’s total stats- the Ravens offense has similarly shut it down several times this year. He was spectacular for most of the game, easily the best player on the field but his final stats won’t reflect his level of dominance.
I have a hard time saying someone was the best player on the field in a game where he ran backwards into the end zone on a play from his own 20 and then got flagged for grounding resulting in a safety for the other team. Great quarterbacks know that you don't do that.
Lol ok. To each their own I guess.
You don't think the 49ers have been shutting it down?

RavensI’d expect many blowouts as the team with the best point differential in football, I’ve never argued otherwise and was speaking only on Lamar since I watch the Ravens every week. However, these are their splits by half:
Everyone has had a bad week or 2. Allen was awful against the Jets in week 1, and bad in the Broncos game that got Dorsey fired. I'd argue he's been at least solid in every other game, with several elite performances. He's the best player in the NFL in my opinion. I could go into detail about the week to weeks of other candidates, but I'm confident all of them have fewer great games than Allen, and at least a game where they weren't good. In Allen's case they were both Monday Night games, so I wonder if that has skewed his perception as everyone saw those.
Agreed. It's a shame he got hurt and now may not be able to break records he's was pacing. In a year where no QBs are throwing up eye-popping numbers, he could've become the 1st WR to win it.
Agreed, but it gives the voters an(other) excuse to pick a QB.
Wait - Myles Garrett?
In his defense, he was tackled by the referee.
Garrett would currently be my pick for DPOY, but its especially unlikely to be a pass rusher as very little separates Garrett from Nick Bosa, or Micah Parsons, or even Maxx Crosby/TJ Watt who likely aren't on playoff teams.
All four 49er loses were games where Trent got hurt and couldnt finish the game, or didn't play at all. I'd say he's one of the most valuable 49ers. I'm not saying he should be MVP or get any votes, but I get why people mention him in the MVP conversation.
I get that, but for 3 of those losses you could make the same argument for Deebo Samuel.
Purdy won in Seattle last season without Deebo, but he's never won without Trent.
While I agree, even if they land the 2 seed (which they can if they win today, Balt beats Miami, and then the Bills win at Miami next week), the jughead voters will holds his turnovers against him. Lamar Jackson being 12th or whatever in TD passes is apparently irrelevant, but Allen's INTs will matter.
“Win”
I don't think there's any way he doesn't win it now, no matter what happens in week 17.
Congrats for telling everyone the betting favorite was the mvp
Hahaha. I got a lot of people saying he didn’t deserve it though. I refrained from saying that I’m sure everyone here knows better than the bettors because everyone is entitled to their opinion as cringeworthy and factually inaccurate as they may be.
You think he deserves it over Lamar?
Read my previous. I agreed Lamar is the MVP.
Right, so what love are you thinking CJ deserves if you think every voter should vote for Lamar?
Are you not familiar with the voting process? There's such thing as 2nd, 3rd, 4th place, etc.
He gets ROY, seems fair.
