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. |

Adams is for all intents and purposes equal to tyreek. Jones is greater than ceh. (At this point in careers) Lazard is a downgrade from Watkins but not terribly so. MVS is at least equal to Hardman. So the only real big drop off in talent is at te. And it is a big deal to have someone like Kelce instead of tonyan. |

Arguing that Rodgers has less talent around him is disingenuous. One could argue they have a better defense, at least statistically, and that in combination with their arguably stronger offensive line allows them to run the ball more, and more effectively. More balance means more options for Rodgers behind center.
(I wouldn't actually make this argument, I'm just acknowledging that it could be made) |

I know of only one reporter who over explains all the great players from the Chiefs having to do with why Patrick is so go good and that would be Stephen A Smith... ohhh and Skip Bayless.

Again, my vote is clearly for mahomes. But this isn't like mahomes brees a few years ago, or mahomes Russell Wilson where the argument is just nonsense. Unlike those guys Rodgers is having a clear mvp season if not for mahomes.

Mahomes was ahead of Rodgers significantly going into this game, despite what some pundits may tell you.
Now it’s just close again. MVP is officially up for grabs between Pat & Aaron these last 3 weeks. The MVP trophy, presented to you by State Farm. |

You lot can't read sarcasm for shit lol.
Mahomes is still the favorite because of team record. Chiefs have a strong chance of going 15-1 and if that happens he's a shoe in. If Andy didn't waste so many 2nd half possessions by running the ball on every first down Mahomes would probably have more TDs, but alas. Rodgers is likely to finish with a notable TD lead. |

If Rodgers is still in it after throwing pick sixes and getting BLOWN OUT by the Bucs, then Mahomes is absolutely still in it after a 3 pick day where he also got almost 400 yards and 2 TDs and ****in won.

If Mahomes plays well against the Saints next week on the national stage, his flukey INTs this week will be quickly forgotten.
