These 10 players are the best bets for Super Bowl 55 MVP
CB. Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Sean Murphy-Bunting. 8. 48. Pick Analysis. player. Scouting Report
Kansas City will attack all over the field. Their arsenal is loaded with speed, strength and physicality that can win on the outside of up the middle. Mahomes isn’t afraid to attack the weaker defensive backs.
Sean Murphy-Bunting has been the strongest in the postseason when it comes to causing turnovers. In each playoff game, Murphy-Bunting has tallied an interception while limiting throws to the team’s top target.
Murphy-Bunting doesn’t play the strong receiver on most sets, meaning he’ll likely have a shot to go up Mecole Hardman or Sammy Watkins. Any slip-up or miscommunication from their side will lead to a big play from the second-year cover man.
Tracy Porter’s highlight moment came in Super Bowl XLIV when he picked off Peyton Manning to a Saints touchdown. Maybe this is SMB’s historic moment in Bucs history?
WR. Scouting Report. Kansas City Chiefs. Mecole Hardman. 7. player. 124. Pick Analysis
Devin Hester made the highlight reel when he returned Super Bowl XLI’s opening kickoff the other way for a touchdown to begin the night. There has been as deadly as a returning since his arrival in 2006, but Mecole Hardman might be the next breakout special teamer.
In two years with Kansas City, Hardman has averaged over 20 yards per return in both the kicking and punting game. His natural speed also has made him effective on jet sweeps, quick pitches slant pattern across the middle for the offense.
There’s so many ways Hardman can be effective in space. Outside of the quarterbacks, there’s a good chance he’s leading the way for all-purpose yards by the end of the night. If so, he’ll be in the running for the hardware.
