The Kansas City Chiefs are one of the best teams competing in the current NFL. They consistently top the rankings of the American Football Conference West Division, and they have won three American Football League championships.

When looking over bets placed on online sites like novibet.co.uk, some of the most popular bets include ones placed on NFL MVP award winners, and among them Mahomesis a favorite. Let’s take a look at what makes Mahomes so great, and how he can win the MVP award?
The Kansas City Chiefs are playing one of their best seasons
The Kansas City Chiefs have had some problems with defense in the past, and starting out this season, those problems seemed to not have been fixed. However, now that we are 16 seasons deep, the Kansas City Chiefs are playing like a well-oiled machine, with very few chinks in their armor. They have fixed what problems they’ve had with defense, their quarterback is in the top 3 favorites to win the MVP award, and the team is in the running to win the NFL.
Patrick Mahomes is a great QB
Patrick Mahomes might be the best QB playing in the ongoing season. He was 10/1 heading into the sixteenth week of the 2021/22 season, and throughout has been competing with Packers’ QB, Aaron Rodgers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ QB, Tom Brady for the title of NFL MVP.
In the sixteen weeks Patrick Mahomes has led the Chiefs in eight straight victories, beating some of NFL’s most prominent teams, including the Philadelphia Eagles, the New York Giants, The Green Bay Packers, and most recently, the Steelers. Throughout these games, Patrick Mahomes has shown nothing but passion, drive, and the will and desire to be the best of the best.
It was only a few weeks ago that Mahomes was the fifth favorite in line to win the Most Valuable Player Award. Currently, he has skyrocketed, being in the top 3, second after Tom Brady. And speaking of Brady…
Tom Brady is losing traction
For a long time, Tom Brady was the undisputed, number 1, odds-on favorite to win the National Football League Most Valuable Player award. And while Brady is without a doubt a great player, especially when taking into account his age, he has, recently started to lose traction. Brady is in his mid-forties, and it definitely shows on the field. Recently, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers lost to the Saints, and Tom Brady made, in the eyes of many, a huge mistake. Instead of accepting his loss, in the spirit of sportsmanship, with dignity and respect for the other team, Brady threw a tantrum, as well as a tablet. This has severely hurt his chances to win the NFL MVP award.
