NFL MVP Chase

We’re back to a crowded field in the NFL MVP race!

In review, to earn an MVP point in a game:

  • A quarterback must have a 100.0+ passer rating in a win or tie.
  • A back or receiver must have 100+ yards from scrimmage in a win or tie.
  • Multiple players on the same team can earn an MVP point in the same game.

The consensus pick in the media for MVP might be Patrick Mahomes at this point, and I have him one point behind the leaders. An argument for Mahomes is that the Chiefs keep chugging along after losing their most dangerous receiver, Tyreek Hill. Tua Tagoaviola, tied for the MVP Chase lead, acquired Hill, who’s leading the league in receiving yards, and that has certainly helped Tua’s game.
