Josh Allen won his first MVP this past season in the closest race for the award in nearly a decade. Allen received 27 first place votes while Lamar Jackson got the other 23. As is the case every year, people were very passionate about the winner.
The big difference between this year and others though was the fact that the votes were made public, a fact that took The Athletic's Dianna Russini by surprise when her phone started blowing up after it came out that she had voted Jackson first and Allen second on her ballot. She shared the story with the hosts of Pardon My Take.
