Patrick Mahomes is favored to repeat the NFL's MVP, per the Westgate SuperBook in Las Vegas.

Mahomes leads the pack with 4-1 odds.

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback is followed 13 quarterbacks:

Aaron Rodgers - 8/1
Andrew Luck - 8/1
Carson Wentz - 10/1
Drew Brees - 10/1
Tom Brady - 12/1
Philip Rivers - 14/1
Russell Wilson - 14/1
Ben Roethlisberger - 25/1
Matt Ryan - 25/1
Baker Mayfield - 25/1
Jared Goff - 60/1
Cam Newton - 60/1
Matthew Stafford - 80/1

I'm not saying that Dak should be Top 10 on this list, but look at some of these names...Matt "I failed with a 25 point lead" Ryan, Cam "Thrown it up for grabs" Newton, and Matt "I never won anything and I'm overrated" Stafford? Ya think Dak could get at least 50-1 odds here? Oh yeah, more Media love for that guy in Philly too.

We just don't have the type of offense where he is going to put up gaudy MVP type of numbers, but who cares. He runs our offense well and seems to be continuing to improve and develop. I for one am glad we have him as our QB for what should be another 10 years plus.

I don't have a problem with Dak not being on this list, but I do with Mayfield being on it. Dude's played one season. If he sniffs MVP, it will be because of OBJ. He's just the young QB stud du jour.

The guy that won it last season had only played one season. But Hill was as responsible for him winning it as Beckham would be for Mayfield.

This is a Vegas wager deal, not a ranking of the QB's in the NFL by anyone other than odds setters.

Dak has never been MVP type QB. He is conservative with his throws so he will not put up gaudy numbers for MVP consideration.

"He shouldn't have put us in position to need a clutch touchdown!"

Sorry, didn't know that. At least you have a good excuse, I type like I'm in boxing gloves. What other call typos, I call close enough.
My fingers sting, like bee stings when I type. Thank you for replying. I do my best to proofread. But it changes even after or just before I send it

When a QB looks pretty good in Cleveland, I don't mind him being on the list lol.
Also keep in mind he was the 1st overall, so, add that with the team adding more weapons for him this offseason and the QB having real potential/talent it makes sense he's on there.

Why is Dak allowed to "improve" with Cooper but Mayfield cant when he gets a wr?
We don't throw the ball as much as they do. Prescott will never have those numbers. Unless we change the style of this offense. I could care less about MVPs Awards just give me a championship team football

Bleh... I'm waiting on Mahomes to have that sophomore year this season, you know the one where he falls on his arse and winds up being way less then everyone figured....but that's just me.

Don’t see Mahomes falling on his ace but with the loss of Tyreek Hill who put up almost 1500 yards and 12 TDs it will be hard for him to match the numbers he put up last season. KC has lost two big guns on offense in back to back seasons Hunt and Hill. A lot of attention was being paid the Hill so it’s going to be interesting to see how his loss will affect their offense and Mahomes’ play. Mahomes is so gifted he may produce with whatever receivers he has at his disposal.

Drew Brees’ passing yards dropped considerably the following year after his first 5000 yard season. The same with Dan Marino. Peyton Manning and Tom Brady’s passing yards dropped the following year after their 5000 yard seasons. Going to be hard for Mahomes to follow up last season with another 5000 yard season especially with the loss of Tyreek Hill. Can’t lose a dynamic playmaker like that and not have it take some bite out of your offense.

I would not put dak as a league mvp either but I do agree that newton and Stafford have no business on this list.
