tom brady s mvp vote revealed amid fiery josh allen clutchpoints

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen was named MVP of the 2024 season at the NFL Honors in New Orleans Thursday evening. In one of the closest MVP finishes in NFL history, Allen narrowly edged out Baltimore Ravens’ star Lamar Jackson for the award. When all 50 ballots were counted, Allen received 27 first-place votes and finished with 383 points to take home the hardware. But did the GOAT co-sign Allen’s achievement? As it turns out, Tom Brady had Allen second in the MVP race as the future Hall of Famer voted for Jackson to win the award, according to the Associated Press. Jackson finished with 23 first-place votes and 362 points to finish just behind Allen.

Brady won the NFL Most Valuable Player Award three times in his career (2007, 2010 and 2017). Had Jackson won this year, he would have joined Tom as a three-time MVP. Allen has come close to winning the award several times in his seven-year career. He finished second in 2020, losing to Aaron Rodgers, and came in third in 2022 when Patrick Mahomes grabbed the prize. Last season, when Jackson won his second MVP, Allen finished fifth in the vote despite throwing for 4,306 yards and scoring 44 total touchdowns. Updated on February 07, 2025 07:30AM EDT

Tom Brady was among the voters for the NFL MVP Award at the NFL Honors. The multiple-time Super Bowl champion selected Lamar Jackson as his top choice, but in the end, it was his second pick, Josh Allen, who took home the award. Beyond his top two selections, Brady’s third choice for MVP was Saquon Barkley, the Philadelphia Eagles running back set to play in Super Bowl LIX against the Chiefs. Barkley was also a popular third-choice pick among other reporters, including Dianna Russini and Mike Florio. For his fourth and fifth picks, Brady was one of the few to cast a vote for Ja’Marr Chase—only four people included the Bengals receiver in their selections. His fifth and final vote went to Joe Burrow, who received multiple votes from other reporters, though mostly as a third or fourth option.

Brady knows that the MVP award is almost always won by a quarterback, but by including Saquon Barkley, he’s sending a message to other running backs that it’s also possible to make it into... It also highlights the perspective of a former player like him in the voting process. The results are in and Josh Allen is the 2024 NFL MVP, narrowly beating out Lamar Jackson in one of the closest MVP races ever. There's some math that doesn't math up when it comes to the final tallies, because Lamar was First-Team All-Pro and that's been a nearly universal sign he would win MVP. Even Allen was surprised he won. But perhaps even more odd than that and maybe even more bizarre than Lamar receiving a fourth-place MVP vote in the balloting, is the ballot from the 🐐 himself, one Tom Brady, the future...

Brady's ballot featured Lamar first, Allen second, Saquon Barkley third and then took an odd swerve, with Brady listing Ja'Marr Chase as the fourth most valuable player in football. I have zero issues with giving Chase votes, because he was incredible this season. But the fifth choice for Brady? Joe Burrow! You know, the guy throwing the football to Chase. Brady is a former NFL quarterback and he listed a receiver over a quarterback in the MVP balloting?!

Make it make sense. I can't. Multiple people voted for Chase, which, again, I have no problem with. Charles Robinson of Yahoo! Sports, a veteran NFL reporter, listed Chase on his ballot, putting him at fifth, with Burrow third. NBC Sports Chris Simms also listed Chase -- Simms likes to go a little against the grain with his draft/offseason QB/etc rankings and I have no problem when he does it.

(Anecdotally, he's usually right more often than not when it shakes out I've noticed.) Simms also listed Burrow fourth, ahead of Chase.

And trust me, it wrapped up with some serious tension.

The reason? Well, Josh Allen clinched the first MVP title of his career, but it seems like the NFL fandom isn’t happy with that decision because the Ravens‘ QB, Lamar Jackson, has better stats than Allen. Alright, I know most of y’all were probably all in for Jackson to snag his third MVP, but here’s the twist: the NFL GOAT, Tom Brady, decided to take the road less traveled. According to Jay Morrison, who’s the Bengals‘ beat writer for SI’s BengalsTalk.com, Brady was one of four voters who had the Bengals’ wide receiver, Ja’Marr Chase, on his ballot. Now, that’s a total curveball. Brady listed Chase fourth on his ballot, but wait for it.
