Josh Allen, no MVP but he’s constantly in the conversation. No championship but he’s expected to win one. Both are considered to be the future face of their league.

Josh Allen. Everyone knew pre-draft that Luka had a ridiculously high ceiling, but so many doubted he’d ever get there at all, certainly not as fast as he did.

Furthermore, there were hopeful fans who compared the two and their hopes for a championship.
Josh Allen— both put up numbers but has yet to win anything. This year could be the year for both.

Josh Allen for sure and Mahomes is Steph. Mahomes and Steph knocked out Allen and Luka in their respective playoffs last year. Wild comparison
