Hall of Famer Thurman Thomas wonders why Bills QB Allen wasn’t an NFL MVP candidate before this year

Associated Press  

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Buffalo Bills Hall of Fame running back Thurman Thomas isn’t the least bit surprised by the national attention quarterback Josh Allen is generating in making his NFL MVP case this season. And I love seeing ‘First player to do this..’ It’s crazy.” Thomas was referring to Allen’s latest string of firsts that included him being the first NFL player in the Super Bowl era to throw three touchdown passes and score three more on rushes in a 44-42 loss to the Los Angeles Rams on Dec. 8. And then there’s his latest feat in a 48-42 win over Detroit on Sunday, when Allen became the NFL’s first player to throw at least two touchdown passes and score two more rushing in consecutive games, and also doing so three times in one season. “Josh is the best player in the league, so having that is special, because I truly feel he’s unstoppable,” cornerback Taron Johnson said following an outing in which the Bills scored on eight of 10 drives while totaling 559 yards offense — the fifth most in team history and most in regulation since a 579-yard outing in its 2000 season finale.
