The season is five games old, yet some leading bookies have already installed Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes as the favorite to win the NFL MVP.
Mahomes can be had at (+400).
The Miami offense has been on fire this season, with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa the second favorite at (+470).
The San Francisco 49ers are undefeated through five, yet their quarterback Brock Purdy is only fifth favorite and could be a good bet at (+710).
The other unbeaten side the Eagles have QB Jalen Hurts to thank for their offensive charm, and he is the third most likely to win the MVP Award (at +660).
Bills QB Josh Allen is in the mix at (+700) as is Lamar Jackson of the Ravens (at +1900).
The outside contenders include Jared Goff of the Lions (+3000), Trevor Lawrence of the Jaguars (+2100) and Justin Herbert of the Chargers (+2100).
Ther smart money is on Mahomes, but the real smart pick could be one of the 49ers or Eagles players.
