Commentary:
RECENCY BIAS FACTOR SAYS Allen is the new favorite.
We still have Lamar in first place.
Most of the big media is saying he's the MVP, it's his to lose. While we still think it's a good chance he could lock it up in the coming weeks.
This narrative feeds right into the same song we sing every year, where the 1 seed has to get the mvp for their qb. Do better voters.
There is also a strong case for Allen to be 4th on our list because Goff does in fact sit in the 1 seed by that age old argument, but Allen’s 6 rushing TD gives him a slight advantage over Goff.
