Herbert should win this game though. I’m not asking him to beat the chiefs.
What QB is under the most pressure this postseason and why?
- Thread starter Street Knowledge
- Start date
Josh Allen has some expectations no question but you’re fooling yourself if it’s anything near Lamar. Like most people in here said, Bills were supposed to take a step back and instead Allen had one of his best seasons while losing some weapons. He’s also had strong playoff performances. You’re being obtuse if think he has the same pressure as Lamar.
Lamar, without even thinking about it.
Ravens have 9 Pro Bowlers, 6 All-Pros. No real weaknesses to speak of. If not now, when?

Allen and Lamar. Even though it’s unfair because people assume Pat is vulnerable but as long as he has the refs in his pocket he always is at an advantage
How does Co-MVP work voting wise?

Obviously Lamar. But Mahomes should be under the least pressure.
Lamar is three levels above everyone else in terms of pressure to perform
Two MVPs/prolly three this year
The argument can easily be made that they could have won last year if Lamar had gotten out of his own head and just played how he got his MVPs
9 Pro Bowlers, 6 All-Pros like the breh up said
Outside of legit Ravens fans and people in the know, everyone still thinks Harbaugh is a good coach so he won't get the blame
Hurts is second

Yeah Mahomes' legacy is unquestionable at this point. 3 SB titles, regular season MVPs, SB MVPs, 5000 passing yard season, wins, win percentage... you can't take anything away from him.
Now, if he wins three straight SBs, no one's done that. Putting him at 4 SBs is Montana territory. We're talking top 5 QBs of all time at that point, so I wouldn't say he has absolutely no pressure.
Eh.
If Pat doesn't win, I honestly think no one is actually gonna give a fukk. It would have to be a complete collapse with multiple turnovers for a peep to even be made.

I am untethered and my rage knows no bounds!
Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen.
Lamar need to show and prove in the playoffs.
Josh needs to prove he can get them to the big stage.
I'd be happy of either won but LJ8 needs to cement himself with that Super Bowl

It's Lamar BY FAR even though a lot of people consider him the 3rd or even 4th QB in the NFL. And I think that's a big part of why he's struggled in the Postseason. He simply has to win to legitimize his accolades and success in the eyes of most people. He's never entered the postseason playing with house money. There's always been demands placed on him due to race, social class and playing style plus the MVP has tripled that.
He just needs to block out the noise, calm down and play his normal game.
To me
1. Lamar - For the reasons I just mentioned
2. Mahomes
3. Darnold
4. Goff
5. Wilson
6. Allen
Everyone else is playing with house money.

I can’t say for certain, still trying to find out.
Last time a QB won MVP* but didn’t make 1st team was Elway almost 40 years ago so history is favoring Lamar to win. The voters for the all pro list also vote for MVP.
(The asterisk is the exception of Manning & McNair being co MVP with them being 1st & 2nd team that year.)

Stroud is ahead of Love because everyone acknowledges he's taken a step back but more importantly, everyone thinks the Texans are a layup until they show otherwise
Love would normally be higher, but that NFC North was so crazy that they're somehow they 7th seed against a team that has higher expectations of themselves. Anyone else, I might have ranked GB higher (say if they played WAS or TB, but they got a wild draw that they might win).
the Chargers kinda get a pass this year, not because of Herbert, but because they're overachieving and a W against Houston makes it so their season couldn't possibly be a letdown.
Stafford and Herbert could really go either way, but Stafford has less years to win again, but 9/10 can be whatever.
