MVP Win Not Shifting Bills' Josh Allen From Super Bowl Mindset

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen won the NFL MVP award for his stellar 2024 season, which was the best of his career.

But that was months ago. Time has moved on, and now attention is firmly on the 2025 season and what the Bills, who are one of the favorites for the Super Bowl, can accomplish.

However, being the league MVP is a great honor and a valuable accolade to have, but it isn't the be-all and end-all.

In fact, Josh's offseason hasn't been any different, and he knows it means absolutely zero when it comes to the 2025 season.

"It's no different to me to be honest,” Allen said. “At the end of the day, it doesn't mean a whole lot in terms of winning championships, so that's kind of what it is.”

With the Bills' eyes now firmly fixed on this upcoming season, Allen's MVP award, as he stated, doesn't move the needle one way or the other when it comes to what can be accomplished in this new season.

Allen has a ring; he just married Hollywood actress Hailee Steinfeld.

But he wants more.

He has three new weapons in Joshua Palmer, Laviska Shenault Jr., and Elijah Moore, and Josh has already mentioned an adjustment period for the trio, so some moving parts need to settle down this offseason.

Buffalo is seen by many to have perhaps the most well-rounded roster in football, with the best chance at Super Bowl glory since Allen was drafted, but we have heard that before.

Now is the time to build the foundation for what Buffalo hopes will be a productive season, and for Allen, the MVP now means nothing - it's all about getting that championship.
