The NFL’s MVP award was a two-horse race for weeks, with Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen ultimately winning the award with 27 of 50 first-place votes. Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson received the other 23 first-place votes. In a season where Buffalo lost big names, and was expected to regress, Allen carried the Bills to the AFC Championship Game.
NFL Awards: MVP – Josh Allen
One of the main things that elevated Allen to the next level this season, was his attention to taking care of the ball. Previously known as a dual threat with turnover issues, Allen had only six interceptions to 28 passing touchdowns in the 2024 regular season. Allen also rushed in for 12 more, while throwing touchdowns to 13 different receivers, tying an NFL record.
The argument could be made that Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is worthy of the MVP award. With 41 passing, and four rushing touchdowns, to just four interceptions, Jackson had an elite season. Of note, Jackson also fumbled the ball 10 times in the regular season. The Ravens also surrounded him with superior talent compared to the Bills roster. The Bills had one more win than the Ravens, which included all but forfeiting the final game and resting their starters, while the Ravens battled in the final week for position.
