Patrick Mahomes is now the overwhelming NFL MVP favorite
https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl...yIbOTl70ncM4Zs
NFL odds: After Sunday night, Patrick Mahomes is now the overwhelming NFL MVP favorite Frank Schwab 2 hrs ago We can cease and desist with any debate about someone other than Patrick Mahomes being the NFL MVP favorite. You’ll hear people argue that Kyler Murray, Russell Wilson, Alvin Kamara or anyone else should be “in the conversation,” but the only real talk is that the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback is the overwhelming favorite until further notice. Everyone else is vying for NFL offensive player of the year, though Mahomes should probably win that too. Sunday night’s heroics, leading a game-winning drive over the Las Vegas Raiders everyone knew was coming, solidified Mahomes’ position. He’s the best player in football and he’s having a phenomenal year. The odds at BetMGM reflect that. Mahomes is -118 to win MVP at BetMGM. Next on the list is Wilson at +350. Aaron Rodgers is +550 and nobody else is less than 12-to-1. |

In what way? Mahomes had a teribble game and Rodgers had a 4 touchdown game against a playoff team and currently has 44 touchdowns to 5 picks on 70+% completion. At this point the only raw stat Mahomes has working for him is yards.

The only way Rodgers loses it is if he is the main reason, like the Bucs game, that they lose to the Bears. And if they somehow lose the bye that would really do it. Mahomes probably still needs to get to that 5,000 yards and 40 TD mark in this scenario to really make him the obvious choice.

Mahomes put up his stats against some of the best teams in the NFL, while having every single team he played treat it like their super bowl. Rogers put up his stats against mostly garbage teams. Rogers had a great season, but Mahomes is league MVP.

Mahomes should’ve won this award this season. He had it all but locked up after the TB game.
Instead he essentially choked it away with very poor performances by his standards in 3 of the subsequent 4 games. It sucks because I really wanted it for him, but it’s not gonna happen this year and I have to think this is one that he’ll look back on at the end of his career and kick himself a little for. Oh well. On to bigger and better things. |

Mahomes effectively shit the ****ing bed today. Rodgers owns most of the relevant QB stats for the season. W/L is not a relevant QB stat. Let it go, people. Rodgers deserves to win this year's MVP award. Period. Mahomes will win a couple handfuls of MVPs over his career. Just not this year's. As long as he wins the SB who gives a ripe shit. |

Also after Mahomes game against the falcons today, I don't think you can use the "garbage team" knock against Rodgers. |

It is what it is though. To win the MVP you gotta have a strong team around you and it just so happens that Rodgers is blessed with a great o-line while Mahomes dogshit one is probably the main reason he won’t bring home the trophy. |

He hasn’t been “bad” by normal QB standards, but when you’re competing for the MVP you’re just held to a much higher standard. Like it or not he just hasn’t met that standard consistently enough recently. And yes I think he played great against the Saints. |

That's a lie. He was shocking against the Jags and last week against Carolina. He has also played a soft schedule facing some of the worst teams in the league and also san fran who had their best players all injured. How many qb's have gone 14-1 and not got mvp? I'm not sure It's ever happened.
