Although votes were submitted by Wednesday evening, DraftKings is still offering NFL MVP betting until the first playoff game kicks off on Saturday.
Josh Allen is the -450 favorite after entering the final Sunday with -230 odds. The Buffalo Bills quarterback took one snap before shutting it down, given the Bills had already secured the AFC’s second seed.
Lamar Jackson is the reigning MVP and has better statistics than either of his two MVP seasons. He has 41 touchdown passes and just four interceptions this year, along with 915 rushing yards and four more TD.
Meanwhile, Joe Burrow’s odds crashed the past few weeks, as the Cincinnati Bengals strengthen their playoff chances by winning their final five games. Entering Sunday’s slate, the QB was the third favorite with +1400 odds after being a 200-to-1 longshot a month earlier.
However, once Cincy was eliminated, Burrow is the fourth favorite with +1000 odds. Eagles running back Saquon Barkley is the third favorite with +8000 odds.
Three weeks ago, Allen finished with three touchdown passes, while running for another three TD in a 44-42 loss at the Los Angeles Rams. Last month, in perhaps the season’s most memorable play, Allen recorded a unique receiving touchdown in snowy conditions on national television.
Allen completed a pass to Amari Cooper but as the wide receiver was being tackled, he lateraled the ball to his quarterback, who then raced to the endzone to score a TD by diving and extending the ball inside the pylon. The home crowd at Orchard Park celebrated and the primetime audience witnessed a dominating effort.
All awards will be presented over Super Bowl weekend.
