In the eyes of Ed Reed, there’s absolutely no doubt that Lamar Jackson deserves to be recognized as the NFL’s MVP, standing head and shoulders above Josh Allen! Reed’s conviction is unwavering, and he made this clear during an interview with TMZ Sports this week, emphasizing that Jackson’s performance is unmatched in this season’s context.
As a legendary figure in the Baltimore Ravens franchise, Reed passionately articulated his belief that Jackson has demonstrated superior skill and impact compared to Allen. He conveyed his thoughts clearly, expressing that he doesn’t view the competition as close, suggesting that Jackson’s accomplishments warrant the prestigious title of MVP this season.
Reed acknowledged Allen’s strong performance this year, stating, “Josh had a great year, no doubt.” However, he quickly pointed out the distinction, asserting that while Allen’s achievements are commendable, they pale in comparison to the extraordinary season Jackson has put together, which he firmly believes qualifies him for the MVP title.
Drawing an analogy to a sprint, Reed articulated his perspective that Jackson has been consistently ahead in this metaphorical race for the MVP award. He elaborated on this point, suggesting that Jackson’s remarkable performances over recent weeks have left little room for doubt regarding his status as the frontrunner in this critical evaluation.
Reed further commented on Allen’s standing, suggesting that the only way the Bills quarterback could catch up would be if Jackson were to stumble in his performance. “Only thing that brings [Allen] up is if someone trips Lamar,” Reed noted. “And nobody’s tripped Lamar,” reinforcing his belief in Jackson’s dominance this season.
This Sunday, the two elite quarterbacks will face off in a crucial Divisional Round playoff game, providing an opportunity to showcase their skills and prove who truly deserves the NFL’s highest accolade. The Baltimore Ravens are currently favored by one point, but Reed is aware of how competitive the matchup will be, describing it as “a Super Bowl in itself,” highlighting the stakes involved.
