The Buffalo Bills have rattled off two games against high-caliber opponents to claim stirring wins with Josh Allen playing some great football.
Such has been Allen's form that some think he has re-entered the MVP race as we enter Week 16.
Allen has thrown 25 touchdowns to 10 interceptions, 3,276 passing yards, a 70.0 completion percentage, 535 rushing yards, and 12 rushing touchdowns this season to strengthen his case.
But what does Josh think about people putting his name up for MVP consideration?
"I'm just trying to do my job," Allen said. "Just trying to find a way to get in the playoffs here."

The win over the New England Patriots was just what Buffalo needed, but such is its predicament: a loss to the Cleveland Browns and a win for the Patriots against the Baltimore Ravens would give Mike Vrabel's team a two-game lead with two games left.
So, the importance of beating the Browns this week can't be lost on anyone inside the building.
Buffalo, with a win, would still be within striking distance for the division, and if either the Houston Texans or Indianapolis Colts lose, then a playoff spot would be booked.
There is no shortage of motivation for the Bills this week, and yeah, Allen seeing his name in the MVP conversation is nice. But winning the division and punching your ticket to the postseason is what really counts.
