- Lamar Jackson Breaks silence: his bold message to athletes facing academic and mental struggles
- Josh Allen's injury raises concerns ahead of crucial Bills-Jets showdown
In the midst of a heated MVP debate, NFL legend Rod Woodson has made his opinion unmistakably clear; Lamar Jackson should be the MVP, not Josh Allen. Woodson, a former Baltimore Ravens star, shared his thoughts with TMZ Sports, stating, "It's no question in my head. Lamar Jackson is the MVP."
Woodson's declaration comes as Jackson has been putting together an extraordinary season. Leading the league in almost every significant statistic, Jackson has elevated his game to new heights. This season, Jackson has thrown for 3,955 yards and 39 touchdowns, with only four interceptions.
His performance on the ground has been equally impressive, as he broke the NFL's all-time quarterback rushing record in Week 17. These statistics highlight Jackson's dual-threat capability, making him a nightmare for opposing defenses.

A case for the Bills quarterback
Josh Allen, on the other hand, has also had a remarkable season, leading the Buffalo Bills to a strong performance. Allen has accumulated 3,549 ing yards, 26 touchdowns, and six interceptions. While his numbers are impressive, Woodson believes that Jackson's overall impact and statistical dominance make him the clear choice for the MVP award.
"Lamar has been that good this year," Woodson added. "I've got much love for Josh, but Lamar has taken his game to another level. He's leading his team in ways that we haven't seen before."
The debate over the MVP award has sparked lively discussions among fans, analysts, and former players. Jackson's electrifying performances have been a major factor in the Baltimore Ravens' success, making them a formidable force in the league. His ability to change the game with both his arm and his legs sets him apart from other quarterbacks.
As the season nears its end, the MVP race continues to be a topic of great interest and speculation. While Josh Allen's contributions to the Bills are undeniable, Rod Woodson's endorsement of Lamar Jackson underscores the exceptional nature of Jackson's season. For Woodson and many others, Jackson's combination of athleticism, skill, and leadership makes him the most deserving candidate for the prestigious MVP award.
