Another week down in this season and the MVP race is heating up as several players are starting to hit their strides.
1. Lamar Jackson (Baltimore Ravens): Jackson is still the front-runner in the MVP conversation as he continues to put up sensational numbers while several key players have been inactive dealing with injuries.The Ravens' quarterback passed for 280 yards and three touchdowns in the team's 41-10 Week 9 win over Denver.
199/288 69.1% 2669 yards 24 TDs 2 INTs 123.2 Passer rating
91 CAR 538 yards 5.9 YPC 2 TDs
2. Josh Allen (Buffalo Bills): A change in offensive coordinator and multiple added offensive weapons has taken Josh Allen's game to a new level. Recently acquired WR Amari Cooper and Rookie Keon Coleman have both been reliable targets for Allen. The Bills QB has also significantly reduced the number of turnovers as well.
119/189 63.0% 2,001 yards 17 TDs 2 INTs 108.4 Passer rating
4. Derrick Henry (Baltimore Ravens)
It's a testament to how well Baltimore has fared so far this season that they have two players vying for MVP. Henry,who has seemingly found the fountain of youth leads the league in carries, rushing yards, and rushing touchdowns with no signs of slowing down. A two-headed rushing attack of him and previously mentioned dual threat dynamo Lamar Jackson should have the Ravens in a position to hoist the Lombardi trophy for years to come.
