    Josh Allen has been the driving force behind the Buffalo Bills' 3-0 start to the season. Through the first three weeks, Allen has displayed his dual-threat capabilities, completing 75 percent of his passes for 634 yards and seven touchdowns while adding 85 rushing yards and two scores on the ground.

    His all-around play has propelled Buffalo to the top of the league, with the Bills leading in points scored, averaging 37.3 per game.

    Allen's standout performance in Week 3 against the Jacksonville Jaguars underscored his dominance. In a 47-10 victory, Allen accounted for over 300 total yards and four touchdowns, earning him AFC Offensive Player of the Week honors for the 13th time in his career. His ability to make plays both in the air and on the ground has solidified him as one of the NFL's top quarterbacks.

    Bleacher Report ranked Allen as the second-best quarterback in the league, trailing once again.. Kansas City Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes. Allen's emergence as an MVP frontrunner reflects his rise to elite status. Despite the accolades, Allen remains focused on one goal.

    "I could give two you-know-whats about winning the MVP. The only thing I care about is raising a Lombardi Trophy,” he said.

    Looking ahead, the Bills face a significant challenge in Week 4 as they take on the Baltimore Ravens. Led by former MVP Lamar Jackson, the Ravens' aggressive defense will test Buffalo’s offense. Maintaining offensive rhythm and protecting the ball will be crucial in this matchup, as both teams look to assert themselves as AFC contenders.
