00:00
Maybe we'll do, we'll do a little NFL MVP because if you look right now in the market,
00:11
it is a race that is certainly favoring Josh Allen minus two 80.
00:17
Let's pull up one more book while we have this conversation.
00:19
Okay.
00:20
Um, Fandle though is going to go minus two 80.
00:24
Let's see what DK went with.
00:25
I saw the Fandle numbers yesterday, minus two 25, Saquon five to one on FD Lamar plus
00:33
eight 50, my homes in golf are 15 to one.
00:38
Nobody else is being booked in the consideration range.
00:42
Okay.
00:44
Now Josh Allen being the favorite is accurate.
00:51
Okay.
00:53
Josh should be the favorite to win this award because we've known it as a quarterback award.
01:03
Obviously he's a quarterback and he plays on a team that is currently being seen as
01:10
one having an excellent chance to secure the number one seed.
01:16
Because if you look at the most recent list of NFL MVP winners, the formula has been very,
01:25
very simple.
01:28
Who's the one seed?
01:30
Who's their quarterback?
01:31
Yeah, that's our MVP.
01:35
Last year, Lamar Jackson wins leagues MVP.
01:40
Why?
01:41
They were the one seed 13 and four best record in football.
01:47
That's how Lamar won that award.
01:49
Don't let anybody tell you otherwise.
01:52
Then that Pat Mahomes won it.
01:53
Why?
01:54
Yeah, you guessed it.
01:55
The one seed 14 and three.
01:58
My homes was helped though, because they weren't the only 14 and three team.
02:01
What happened?
02:02
Well, Jalen hurts injured.
02:04
Gotta stay healthy.
02:05
Jalen hurts.
02:06
That was the front one at runner for a while.
02:08
There probably would have won it, but the injury messed things up.
02:13
Okay.
02:14
The one Rogers, the second, why?
02:19
One seed.
02:20
How do you want it?
02:21
The one seed.
02:22
This isn't hard folks, 2019, your league MVP 14 and two Lamar Jackson, top seed.
02:33
You guessed it 2018.
02:36
How annoying is this?
02:39
Are you annoyed yet?
02:41
Mahomes wins it.
02:45
One seed 2017, new England Patriots, Tom Brady.
02:50
Oh my goodness, man, 2016, 2016, Matt Ryan.
02:57
There we go.
02:58
There's your trend breaker.
03:01
There is your trend trend breaker.
03:04
Matt Ryan.
03:05
They were not the one seed.
03:06
Atlanta was the two seed.
03:07
They also scored a billion points that year.
03:11
Ryan was great.
03:12
So that, I guess, might be the Josh comp.
03:14
If he can't nail down the one seed and Newton that year, 15 and one when they won the MVP,
03:21
of course that's your top slot.
03:23
But we have now seen one, two, three, four, five, six, seven consecutive NFL MVP awards
03:32
handed to the quarterback on the number one seed in one of the two conferences.
03:38
At times, it is just who has the best record.
03:42
So we look right now.
03:45
Josh Allen is not the one seed, but he is on the AFC favorites.
03:51
That's how bad Kansas City has been playing.
03:56
The Chiefs have won consecutive Super Bowls, host the AFC title game every single year,
04:06
are projected to finish with the better record, and they have still popped the Buffalo as
04:13
the favorites.
04:16
But if Josh does not catch Mahomes, that could mess some things up for him.
04:26
It could, but they're not likely to give it to Mahomes because he, like Kansas City, has
04:33
not been good enough.
04:36
That is just the reality of it.
04:39
His 19 touchdowns to 11 interceptions, his still not to hit 3,000 yards, his passer rating
04:49
that is 17th, it's not right now going to be seen as good enough.
04:57
His QBR, which is ninth, it's just not.
05:02
That's all there is to it.
05:06
That's all there is to it.
