The MVP award won't be decided on Sunday, but the ramifications of the game figure to be immense for the two QBs and their franchises.
Both quarterbacks had their doubters leading up to the draft. Now, the AFC divisional round's winner will be within a game of a Super Bowl.
The fourth and final matchup of the Divisional Round is perhaps the most highly-anticipated of them all. MVP front-runners Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson are put to the test under the bright lights and go head-to-head for a spot in the AFC Championship.

The Texans picked up wide receiver Stefon Diggs last offseason, but his year was cut short by a torn ACL in Week Eight.
This year's Super Bowl is a rematch of Super Bowl LVII two years ago, which the Chiefs won 38-35 over the Eagles.
The Lions currently hold the 28th pick in the NFL Draft. While the premier talent may be off the board by the time they pick, there are plenty of options that could suit Detroit's needs.
