For Dan Orlovsky, the 'Most Valuable Player' (MVP) should be elevated on the basis of the player's impact on his team. This brings down the debate between the Buffalo Bills' Josh Allen  and Baltimore Ravens' Lamar Jackson , where the latter possesses better stats than the former.

<p style="margin-top: 0px;" ></p><p>When the Bills traded star wide receiver <a href="https://m.dailyhunt.in/news/india/english/first+sportz-epaper-frstsptz/bills+damar+hamlin+breaks+silence+on+stefon+diggs+shocking+trade+to+the+texans-newsid-n601980924" style="text-decoration:none; color:#036C8F;"><strong>Stefon Diggs</strong> to the Houston Texans</a>, it was widely considered an end to their offense&apos;s dominance. However, star quarterback Allen&apos;s brilliant turnaround and making the team a <a href="https://m.dailyhunt.in/news/india/english/first+sportz-epaper-frstsptz/josh+allen+cements+his+mvp+claim+as+billslions+poised+for+super+bowl+showdown-newsid-n643717163" style="text-decoration:none; color:#036C8F;">frontrunner for the Super Bowl</a> cannot be described as less than brilliant. </p><p>Highlighting the Bills&apos; offensive prowess this season, scoring 30 and above points in nine of their eleven victories; former NFL quarterback <a href="https://m.dailyhunt.in/news/india/english/first+sportz-epaper-frstsptz/stefon+diggs+without+hesitation+feels+exteammate+josh+allen+should+win+mvp-newsid-n644073022" style="text-decoration:none; color:#036C8F;">picked his MVP favorite</a> as Allen despite Jackson holding superior individual statistics. </p><p>FS Video</p><p>It&apos;s not the great player award, it&apos;s the MVP the Most Valuable Player Award. If we just sparked out the offenses and took and talked about the difference in talent, Buffalo, I would tell you, one through 11 is a lesser talented offense than the Baltimore Ravens. The quarterback&apos;s performance is elevating the group. That is the value of that role.</p>Dan Orlovsky said on ESPN&apos;s First Take .<p>

<p>According to Bleacher Report, the Bills&apos; star signal-caller is leading the NFL MVP race with -900 odds, followed by the Ravens&apos; quarterback with +500 odds. As for the stats, Allen may not lead Jackson in yards or touchdowns, but he holds a better QBR of 79.3 than Jackon&apos;s 76.0. </p><p><b><font>Josh Allen competes for Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award</font></b></p><p>Considering the Bills&apos; success, which makes them heavily favored for the Super Bowl, the Pro Bowler quarterback&apos;s name has also been selected as a finalist for the 2024 Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award.
