Well… Pro Football Focus made an interesting decision.

The football analytics outlet named their top-101 players from the 2024 NFL season.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, who was named the league’s MVP, was not in the top spot.

Nor was he in the first five.

Allen was named the sixth-best player in the NFL by PFF from the 2024 season:

Adding to the PFF snub for Allen is his ranking amongst quarterbacks. The top player on PFF’s ratings is the Baltimore Ravens’ Lamar Jackson. Right in between Jackson and Allen is Joe Burrow from the Cincinnati Bengals.

Jackson could be debated as the top player, Burrow is the curious one finishing above Allen. Jackson and Allen were considered the top candidates to win the 2024 MVP,

Burrow’s Bengals didn’t even make the postseason. While Burrow had a positive year, that’s a curious call.

PFF’s full breakdown on Allen at No. 6 can be found below:

Allen earned his first NFL MVP award by ranking third among qualified quarterbacks in PFF grade and leading that group with a 93.6 rushing grade and 43 big-time throws. He is the first quarterback in PFF history to earn a 90.0-plus grade in five straight seasons, surpassing Tom Brady, who did it four times in a row from 2015 to 2018. On top of his amazing playmaking ability, Allen recorded a career-low 2.6% turnover-worthy play rate.
