00:00I was driving in this morning and I had the NFL station on Sirius on for a little bit and
00:06There's just like preconceived notion white Brian. See if you give me MVP odds right now
00:13That Josh Allen should win this award and
00:16I
00:18Don't want to get overly caught up in the MVP award
00:22Especially whenever you get voters man, that's gonna just impact
00:26Promote who they want to win it and it seems like it seems like there are people that really just want Josh Allen to win
00:31This award if you go look at the stats
00:34Lamar has more passing yards
00:36More touchdowns. That's an exceptions Josh has more rushing touchdowns
00:41But they told Lamar that you run the ball too much
00:44You need to become a better passer and now that he's starting to pass that's what you want to give him
00:48He has a higher percentage
00:51Josh's Josh's rating is 101.4 Lamar's 121.4, you know
00:57Everything you said go barrel is killing all that. Yo, the best quarterback in the NFL this year is burrow. Yeah, he is
01:05Outrageous and like he's just not talked about because they don't have 10 wins and might not get in the playoffs
01:10But see the day is awful. See when I look at I look at this too, though
01:14Your barrel has had some amazing numbers because he has to score and all he's doing is throwing about big time
01:20If Lamar is not on the Ravens
01:23They are not winning 11 game
01:24I think if Lamar is not on the Ravens and they have just like good quarterback play not excellent because Lamar is excellent
01:30I think with Derrick Henry and with that old line, I don't think 11 game
01:34I don't either but I bet they could win eight or nine and still be in kind of contention
01:39Oh, I just I'm not necessarily making a case for Lamar or burrow
01:43But this notion that it's got to be Allen when Lamar's playing at that level and Burroughs playing at an outrageous level
01:51I just I don't I can't wrap my brain around the it has to be
01:56Now if any of the three of the what are the odds right now?
01:59Josh Allen's minus 320 Lamar Jackson's plus 250 and then Saquon Barkley is 16. No, that's where is burrow
02:07Burrow is after Barkley at 31 because they're not winning. No, they could still get in
02:12They can still get in there you get in but you talk about double-digit win teams
02:17and I think I just it seems agenda-driven with Alan if it's that it's very agenda-driven because
02:22Because he all of a sudden has a year when he's not throwing interceptions, but let's be real also been excellent
02:28I'm not trying to not touchdowns
02:30Lamar is thrown how many so Allen has 28 touchdown passes
02:35Lamar has 39 Lamar and Baker Mayfield are tied for second with 39 burrow has 42. Yeah
02:43Burroughs 42 against eight picks Lamar has 39 against four picks
02:48Burroughs leading the NFL in yards by a wide margin. What is some 4746 46 41? I mean, he's got
02:55roughly I
02:58Don't know 39 to 46 is 7 right
03:01Burroughs thrown for roughly 700 more yards than Lamar, but also significantly more attempts
03:06Yeah, I and that's not even to mention Saquon who went over 2000 and went over 2000 in 16 games
03:13Which is worth mentioning. Yeah, if he ends up bringing Dickerson's record, that's gonna be in 17
03:17I don't think Dickerson's wrong to think it's kind of unfair to compare the two
03:21I just I don't understand. Give me those numbers one more time
03:25I just I can't wrap my head around how Allen is such a significant favorite
03:29I get that there's a favor because those who vote and those who make that want him to win
03:35I think the Bills also probably have less talent than some of these other teams. We're talking about certainly Baltimore
03:40They get the ball a lot. They get a lot of our possession
03:43Give me he's minus 320. Yep, minus 320 Lamar's plus 250
03:48Because and then where was Saquon?
03:50Plus 1600. This is where I get lost
03:54all the time you tell him what analytics and stats and everything say and when you look at the true analyst instead he's not winning and
04:01Now it's because what's my like it becomes subject to jet
04:06Subjective at that point. He's got another 530 and 12 touchdowns on the ground
04:10I mean the touchdown total on the ground Allen is excellent. I'm not knocking Allen
04:15I just don't understand how this is so one-sided. I really don't well, I'm gonna go with him in Lamar
04:20Yeah, I know Burrow
04:23Because burrowing has all his story Lamar has more passing and more rushing
04:28What's gonna have more passing more passing yours in then burrow no, I'm talking about Allen Allen
04:34Since Allen is a favorite. I'm competing against
04:37He has more passing yards of him and more touchdowns. It's less interceptions than him
04:41It's a higher percentage completion rate. His quarterback rating is higher now when they run the ball
04:46He has about 300 more yards and him rushing now
04:49Allen is getting his arm because every time they get down it he uses big by to get in the end zone
04:53Lamar still has six six rushing. It's 45 total touchdowns. Whatever it is and Allen has 40
05:01Or 42. I think dude and everybody will deny and tell me I'm crazy
05:04I think it's just fatigued because Lamar's wanted twice and I want somebody else
05:09I guess should never ever come into you voting for somebody to win it what should happen and what will happen or different
05:15I don't just I agree the fact that Michael Jordan didn't win 10 straight MVPs is the biggest example of MVP
05:22fatigue like
05:25You know
05:27How to come I have a conversation with it about this morning with some guys in my writing crew and
05:31Dan Olofsky is that like he has to be the only one to win dude
05:35You crazy like you said Joe Burrow is having an amazing year as well. I think burrow
05:40Nor what say Quan is doing is asinine. Yeah
05:44I I just I care more about wins and losses and winning in the playoffs and all those things and
05:52That is something that affects both
05:56Lamar and
05:58But isn't wins and losses the reason why Allen's the favorite they have clearly the best record of the three teams bills
06:06Ravens, I mean 13 and 3 the Ravens are 11 and 5 and the Ravens have had a
06:12Couple really bad performances in which Lamar was really bad like the Raiders loss
06:18Lamar was really bad. Whereas Allen's been good throughout and their losses are only two good teams
06:23Unless you want to say the Rams aren't but the Rams are gonna be in the playoffs
06:26Um, although I agree first and foremost the fact that say Quan Barkley is not even like in the conversation is absurd
06:34There's obviously a quarterback bias just rename it a quarterback award just
06:41Do the same thing with the Heisman
