Writer’s MVP Picks for this Season

Favorites

Lamar Jackson +110
Josh Allen +360

It’s going to be tough to beat Lamar. Jackson is an overlay at +110.

Unless he completely falls apart, the Baltimore Ravens quarterback should win a second straight MVP.

Heading into NFL Week 11, Lamar has thrown for 2,669 yard, 24 TDs, and 2 interceptions.

He’s dominating in every way imaginable.

The one player that appears capable of beating Lamar for the MVP is Josh Allen.

Allen’s stats aren’t as good as Lamar’s but the Bills have a better record and Allen doesn’t have a running back like Derrick Henry to lean on.

Still, Jackson is the top pick among the favorites.

NFL MVP Favorites Pick: Lamar Jackson

Smart

Patrick Mahomes +650
Jalen Hurts +1400

The Philadelphia Eagles are 7-2 and ended the Dallas Cowboys’ playoff chances in their last game.

The reason is because of Jalen Hurts’s brilliance at the QB position.

For sure, Saquon Barkley has made a big difference but Hurts is the leader.

However, Patrick Mahomes is the smart choice.

The Ravens are 7-3 and may not win the AFC North. Pittsburgh is 7-2 straight up.

Mahomes leads the lone remaining undefeated team in the NFL.

Patrick’s stats aren’t awe inspiring but Mahomes is the unquestioned leader of the league’s top team.

Also, in the second half, Mahomes could step it up, which is why Patrick is the smart choice over Hurts.

NFL MVP Smart Choices Pick: Patrick Mahomes

Longshots

Kyler Murray +2200
Joe Burrow +3000

Burrow is posting MVP like stats.

However, the Cincinnati Bengals aren’t winning enough to make the playoffs.

If Burrow turns the team around in the second half of the season, Cincinnati could get it done.

Still, it’s tough to look past how well Kyler Murray is playing.

The Arizona Cardinals’ quarterback was supposed to lead one of the worst clubs in the NFL this season.

Instead, he leads a 6-4 team that is ahead of the Seahawks, Rams, and 49ers in the NFC West.

Murray is averaging 8.1 yards per carry and has thrown 12 TDs to just 3 interceptions.

He’s become one of the most consistent and solid quarterbacks in the NFL.

The man can ball. Kyler rates the choice over Joe Burrow as the underdog pick to win the NFL MVP.

NFL MVP Longshots Pick: Kyler Murray

NFL 2021 MVP Betting Picks: Favorite Choice, Smart Option and Best Longshot

Previous Betting News

Picking the winner of the NFL regular season MVP award is difficult, but perhaps not as tough as you might imagine. Going back to 2007, we have only ever seen anyone other than a QB win it once. In that time, you have had Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, and Patrick Mahomes in as multiple winners, so it is not all that surprising that those guys would be in the mix again this season. There is, though, always the possibility that we get what might be considered a dark horse winner, like we saw when Cam Newton, Matt Ryan, and Lamar Jackson delivered when they won it. Let’s now look ahead and see if we can sort out some NFL MVP picks for you to choose from so you can plan your bets against their NFL MVP odds.

NFL MVP Picks (favorite/smart/longshot)

Potential MVP Favorite

As it stands right now, Patrick Mahomes is a pretty clear favorite to win his 3^rd MVP, sitting at odds of +350. The closest player to him is Aaron Rodgers at +800, so you can see that the Chiefs QB is considered the man to beat. Given the talent and weapons he has at his disposal, you have to say that he is the deserving favorite to win, but there are some questions here. Did the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense deliver the blueprint for stopping Mahomes and the Chiefs in last season’s Super Bowl? Plus, you do have to wonder how much longer Mahomes can scramble to make plays without picking up some type of serious injury. Still, though, he is a very good bet.

Smart MVP Pick

We have all spent the last few months wondering how the Aaron Rodgers saga would play out in Green Bay. We finally got our answer last week after he penned a new deal and showed up in training camp ready to go. The Packers front office seems to be going out of their way to make him happy, but he is still going to feel as though he has something to prove this season. Aaron Rodgers with a bit of a chip on his shoulder is a dangerous player, and you have to say that he seems like a bit of a bargain at odds of +800. He will want to show that he is deserving of the concessions the front office made to bring him back, which is why I think he is the smart bet.

Longshot MVP Pick

For this pick, it would be very easy to just say Tom Brady at +1200 and be done with it, but let’s go with a couple of players that are a little less predictable. I would be very tempted to put some money on Matthew Stafford of the LA Rams at odds of +1000. He has been brilliant in his career on a very bad Detroit Lions team, but now he is surrounded by weapons in LA. The danger with this bet is his frequent injury issues. Baker Mayfield at +2200 is an intriguing proposition, too. While he has been a little erratic during his time in the NFL, he has all the tools to be an elite QB. He has weapons galore at his disposal in Cleveland and has the potential to put up some gaudy numbers.
