With the start of the 2024 NFL season only a matter of weeks away, debates about which players will excel during the upcoming regular season have started to surface, and the NFL MVP debate has become a hot topic of discussion once again.
Last year, it turned out to be a two-man race for the NFL MVP award between rising star Brock Purdy of the San Francisco 49ers and Baltimore Ravens superstar Lamar Jackson, who already had one trophy to his credit.
Although Purdy made a strong case for the regular-season award as he led the 49ers to the top seed in the NFC, Jackson was clearly the best player in the league during the 2023 campaign, where he led the Ravens to the top seed in the AFC and was the leader of arguably the best squad in the NFL.
Ultimately, Jackson won his second NFL MVP award, and it seemed like the right choice, even though Purdy led the 49ers to the Super Bowl and Jackson and the Ravens flamed out in the AFC Championship Game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Heading into the 2024 campaign, Zach Gelb of Infinity Sports Network believes Buffalo Bills superstar Josh Allen will be the player to win NFL MVP.

Despite recently trading away Allen’s best weapon in the passing game, sending superstar wide receiver Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans, the Bills are still expected to be a force to be reckoned with in the AFC once again.
Allen will likely have a solid case for MVP if he can continue to be among the elite quarterbacks in the NFL while leading the Bills to wins on a weekly basis.
