There is no debate in Ed Reed‘s mind … Lamar Jackson — NOT Josh Allen — is the NFL’s MVP!!!
The Baltimore Ravens legend made it crystal clear to TMZ Sports this week he thinks Jackson should get the nod over Allen … and it appears he doesn’t think it’s particularly close.
“Josh had a great year, no doubt,” Reed said. “But he hasn’t had Lamar’s year. He’s had an MVP year, but he hasn’t had Lamar’s year.”
Reed compared it all to a sprint … telling us he believes Lamar’s been way ahead in the race throughout the last few weeks.
“Only thing that brings [Allen] up is if someone trips Lamar,” Reed said. “And nobody’s tripped Lamar.”
The two quarterbacks will have the chance to prove who’s really deserving of the NFL’s highest honor on Sunday … when the Ravens visit Buffalo for a huge Divisional Round playoff matchup.
Baltimore’s currently a one-point favorite … but Reed knows it can go either way — calling it “a Super Bowl in itself.”

Reed won’t be able to make it to the game — he said he’s got some responsibilities to tend to — but he’ll certainly be watching from home … perhaps even with his new DirecTV MySports package!
