Does First Team AP All-Pro vote mean Lamar Jackson will win the NFL MVP?

Lamar Jackson had more first team AP All-Pro votes than Josh Allen setting the Ravens QB up to win back to back MVP.

The results of The Associated Press 2024 NFL All-Pro balloting, as selected by a national panel of 50 media members, are in, and Lamar Jackson (30) had more first-place votes than Josh Allen (18).

The results suggest that after Josh Allen was the presumed front-runner for weeks now, it could be and should be Jackson who walks away with the award.

According to ESPN Stats&Info, Jackson has been the 8th quarterback since the 1970 merger, earning three or more first-team All-Pro selections.   Jackson’s other first-team All-Pro selections came in 2019 and 2023.

Furthermore, according to Evan Kaplan, the last time a first-team All-Pro quarterback didn’t win the award was 2012, when Adrian Peterson was named the NFL MVP.

There has been plenty of controversy about the matter, and former NFL quarterback Tony Romo only added to it when he gave an interesting take on the situation between the two signal callers.

Both Jackson and Allen deserve the award and are having incredible seasons. There are plenty of arguments for both players, but the award should go to the one who deserves it, not because people feel bad for someone.
