Chiefs How much sense does Mahomes make for MVP?

Direckshun · Today, 04:48 AM

Historically, including the two times Mahomes has actually won the MVP, the award goes to the quarterback with the gaudiest stats and highlight reel performances.

That's a big reason why, despite his regularly disappearing in the playoffs, Lamar Jackson will be a perennial MVP candidate (until the day he has to retire two seasons from now because his body was snapped in half).

And certainly going by that standard, Lamar should be a frontrunner again this year, alongside Josh Allen. Both QBs are putting up huge stats and making insane plays.

But the QB doing the heaviest lifting this season happens to be the same one who is undefeated.

We saw what happens when a really good QB is deprived of his best weapons yesterday. It was Brock Purdy, and he was largely useless.

Mahomes has made plenty of mistakes but if he cuts down on his most egregious errors, and keeps willing this team to victory after victory, then I absolutely think you have to look at him as MVP. The award is "Most Valuable Player," and Mahomes has proven that even if you kneecap the skill positions all over his offense, he (along with Reid's elite gameplanning) can lead his team to victory after victory.

Naturally, he doesn't care, because he only cares about Super Bowls.

But this guy is the GOAT, and he needs to have a trophy case proving that.

He's not playing MVP level right now.

YOu can throw in Jayden Daniels to the MVP mix. The Commanders have the best offense in the league.

Can't get the MVP if you can't play: [He could miss a game or more]

At the end of the day numbers it’s always that much harder for a multi mvp winner to win. The only thing holding his mvp odds so high right now is the undefeated record. I do think that the less attention on mahomes winning the award will raise the attention on Reid for coach of the year

Mahomes improved his QBR to 11th after last game. QB rating continued to plummet but QBR is best indicator to how you are playing at least if you compare it to PFF and QB rating

I don’t know about that but it's close. Throwing the ball yeah Mahomes is a struggle but when push comes to shove he put his body on the line and made those key runs. Even if his accuracy and passing is off he can contort his body and scamper around within or near the pocket to get the throwing lane he wants

Mahomes isn't anything near MVP quality right now.

Maybe not but he was robbed of at least one MVP. How many games do you think we would have won this year with Alex Smith as our QB?

OTOH, Who really cares about season MVP's when you are winning SB's?

Nope…

He’d need to go on an incredible heater statistically to get back atop that convo, even on the best team right now.

Only MVP I care about him getting is another Superbowl MVP.

His stats this season are not that great. He will not be the NFL MVP. But still, in the fourth quarter of a playoff game, there is nobody better than Mahomes.

The only MVP I am hoping he gets is another Super Bowl MVP award...

Let Lamar and Josh Allen have their regular season MVP's, because that is the consolation prize from never making it to the Super Bowl.
