The NFL’s MVP award is among the most coveted in any sport.
This is a prestigious honor, and considering the sheer volume of athletes in the NFL, being selected as league MVP is quite an accomplishment.
While the award can go to players from any position, it is typically handed out to quarterbacks, who are viewed as the most important players on any team.
In today’s NFL, it is rare for a team to make the playoffs without a strong quarterback, and it’s challenging for a team to make a deep run without an elite option at the position.
With the knowledge that this award will likely go to a quarterback, fans and analysts have been making predictions about who will hoist the trophy at the end of the 2024 season.
Several quarterbacks have played well this year, but Josh Allen’s name has consistently come up as the front-runner for MVP.
He has not only led the Bills to having one of the best records in the league but has also put up some spectacular individual numbers.
Analyst and former head coach Herm Edwards talked about Allen’s brilliance in a recent appearance on “Freddie and Harry,” saying, “He’s putting his cape on, he’s Superman.”

As Edwards indicated, Allen can seemingly do it all, which is why the “Superman” title is fitting.
Cam Newton was given that nickname during his time in the league, and if Allen continues to play this well, this nickname could stick for the rest of his career.
