Josh Allen is a Top 3 quarterback in the NFL

This brings us to the final takeaway and that is Josh Allen is without a doubt a Top 3 quarterback in the NFL currently. This past season the NFL has seemingly gone through a transition among the quarterback hierarchy with players like Ben Rothlisberger and Tom Brady returning while young quarterbacks like Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Joe Burrow have stepped into that top tier at the position.

While Josh Allen has not won the Super Bowl like Mahomes or an MVP award like Aaron Rodgers or Lamar Jackson, what he showed over the season, particularly in those big games, there is no denying that he will get there one day.

He is a nightmare matchup for opposing defenses because of his strong arm, ability to move the ball around to his playmakers combined with his ability to pick up those tough yards on the ground. There isn’t another quarterback in the NFL that has this combination of skills that Josh Allen has and that is why he is a Top 3 quarterback moving forward.
