00:00Let's get to the MVP where I've learned my lesson with this award.

00:06I, you know, I'm not going to say this is done by any stretch.

00:10I mean, this is way too early and we have a matchup this week

00:13with Allen and and Mahomes that could even determine some of

00:17this stuff.

00:18So I'm going to hold off saying that Lamar Jackson is a

00:20guarantee.

00:20He is plus 110.

00:22I understand that but we got the game of the year coming in

00:24the NFL and in particular if Josh Allen was to run for two

00:28touchdowns and throw three touchdowns and the Bills were

00:31to beat the Chiefs.

00:32This is going from plus 360 to like plus 200 in a week.

00:35So I'm going to hold off on this but I do think if you were

00:38to ask me it's probably Jackson Allen or Mahomes.

00:43I think you're right about that.

00:44And I think the lien will be to give it to Jackson or Allen

00:47because Mahomes is stats just aren't very good.

00:50I know that the Chiefs are undefeated but we kind of had

00:52last year where it was that there was no really great

00:56statistical candidate and so Lamar ended up taking home

00:59because he was truly the most valuable player to his team

01:02this year.

01:03Jackson is posting unbelievable stats.

01:05So it wouldn't surprise me to see him get it again.

01:07But I think Allen does have that chance of if they beat

01:09the Chiefs and if they go on a run if they can get the one

01:12seed he's never been the MVP before he's cut down on his

01:16interceptions like crazy.

01:17I think that those two guys are going to have a shot and

01:20then I wouldn't completely rule out Derek Henry if he kind

01:23of breaks the NFL rushing record.

01:26He's the guy who I think could vulture it from Lamar if

01:29the Ravens end up with a top top seed the AFC solely because

01:33Lamar already has two MVPs and it's not always fair to do

01:36it that way.

01:37But there is sometimes voter fatigue in the MVP races.

01:40We see that often but you know, I think Lamar is the top

01:44candidate right now.

01:45Yeah.

01:46No, I think that's a great call with maybe him over some

01:48of those other names like Jalen Hurts.

01:53Yeah.
