NFL MVP Odds: Patrick Mahomes Leapfrogs Josh Allen For Top Spot

Week one of the 2022 NFL season is officially in the books after a long, dramatic offseason.

Even though it was five days ago, it feels like months since Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills dominated the Super Bowl Champion Los Angeles Rams to open up the season after the eventful Sunday slate and Monday Night upset of Russell Wilson and the Denver Broncos.

Speaking of Allen, the Bills’ superstar signal-caller entered the season as the odds-on favorite for this year’s league MVP, however, his four-touchdown performance against the Rams on Thursday was not enough to keep him in the driver’s seat. That is because Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes turned in a stellar five-touchdown, zero interception performance in the team’s week one win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (+700) jumped Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady after their opening week win over the Raiders.

The most intriguing movement comes with Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson moving ahead of two-time reigning MVP, Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers and the Packers struggled mightily against the Vikings while Jackson and the Ravens won a big over the New York Jets.

Of course, the Packers got blown out 38-3 a season ago in week one and it didn’t hurt Rodgers campaign for a fourth MVP. However, there is no Davante Adams for Rodgers and the Pack to lean on anymore.
