Josh Allen, MVP

Trent Jones ‘25

Storylines and heroic individual play powered Josh Allen's MVP candidacy in the 2024 NFL season. Throughout the season, Allen demonstrated consistency and versatility rarely seen in a quarterback. He threw for over 4,500 yards and 30 touchdowns, including postseason play, while also showcasing his dual-threat ability with over 700 rushing yards and eight touchdowns on the ground. His impressive arm strength, mobility, and playmaking skills made him a constant threat to opposing defenses, whether throwing deep bombs or extending plays with his legs.

Beyond his statistical achievements, Allen's leadership on and off the field was crucial to his MVP case. The Buffalo Bills relied heavily on him to carry the offense, and his performance under pressure in close games, particularly in high-stakes matchups, solidified his status as the most valuable player in the league. He showed tremendous resilience, bouncing back from early-season losses and leading the Bills to a franchise-record 14 wins. His ability to read defenses, make adjustments at the line of scrimmage, and perform in the final moments of games kept Buffalo in playoff contention week after week.

Allen's impact was also seen in his ability to raise the performance of those around him. With a rag tag receiving group and only young talent in the running back room, Josh was able to lead perhaps the most efficient offense in the league.
