A look at the Super Bowl MVP winners, Super Bowl MVP winners by position, and the Super Bowl LVIII odds.
With concerns ranging from mild to major about Brock Purdy, this year’s market pretty much mirrors the one we saw back in 2020. The presence of a stud running back like Christian McCaffrey also adds to the Purdy intrigue, but, as we know, the Super Bowl MVP is a quarterback-driven award.
Note that a tight end has never won the Super Bowl MVP. No TE has ever been Mr. Taylor Swift either.
Super Bowl LVIII MVP Odds and Past Super Bowl MVP Winners
The parallels between Super Bowl LIV and Super Bowl LVIII in terms of the Super Bowl MVP odds market are really interesting. While the Chiefs were favored (-1.5) in that game, Patrick Mahomes was around +110 to win the award and Jimmy Garoppolo was around +200. Raheem Mostert came in next at around +500.With concerns ranging from mild to major about Brock Purdy, this year’s market pretty much mirrors the one we saw back in 2020.
