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. [Reply]

MVP is back on the menu
That's a really bad look to take a sack on 3rd down on two of the final critical possessions. One almost cost them a two score lead FG. I don't know how many will look past the stat sheet. But it did happen during a national TV game. [Reply]

Yep, he was a real surgeon for a buck forty tonight and nearly choking the game away. :-) [Reply]

So we're going to act like he doesn't have 40TDs and 4 INTs so far?
The race is neck and neck right now and the last two performances by each qb has kept it that way. I think Rodgers went ahead after Mahomes performance last week and Mahomes will likely be ahead if he has a good game this week because of Rodgers performance today. [Reply]

Anybody can throw zero picks if they’re only throwing for 150 yards. [Reply]
