Josh Allen was named MVP of the NFL Thursday night, and predictably, social media platforms exploded and several of the bloviating morning talk show hosts were up in arms over what they perceived to be a gross injustice.

Allen, 28, is the third Bills player to win league MVP, joining Hall of Fame running backs Thurman Thomas (1991) and O.J. Simpson (1973). Bills fullback Cookie Gilchrist (1962) and quarterback Jack Kemp (1965) won league MVP honors during Buffalo's years in the AFL, which merged with the NFL after the 1969 season.
