These 10 players are the best bets for Super Bowl 55 MVP
At the end of the day, this is a QB-driven league. Why wouldn’t the award be given to the commander and chief of an offense who’s putting up plenty of points? While others have the opportunity, Mahomes is the front-runner for Kansas City to take home the trophy.
In case you didn’t realize, Damien Williams was the hero for Kansas City against San Francisco in Miami. He scored the team’s final two touchdowns to not only take the lead but also secure the win. One of those scores was a passing touchdown, meaning Mahomes led the way with three total scores.
Quarterbacks always are the hero. They’re also usually the reason a team is good enough to win it all. Yes, Kansas City is loaded on both sides of the ball, but the ball leaves Mahomes’ hands first.
Kelce could score all five touchdowns, but that means his quarterback does as well. Who do you think will be getting the award?
Tom Brady shouldn’t be playing on Sunday. He shouldn’t be playing football. The 43-year-old is defying the laws of the sport, staying under center and playing well when most men his age would be seeking medical attention.
Things seemed to click for the long-time Patriot during his stay with Tampa in 2020. He finally had weapons, a good offensive line and a defense that didn’t seem to quit. The result? His highest touchdown total since 2007.
The Buccaneers defense will be getting to Mahomes without his tow tackles. They might even cause a turnover, giving the ball right back to Brady. He’ll need to capitalize on the moment and score six while eating the clock. Mahomes doesn’t lose games, but rather moments.
If Brady earns his seventh Super Bowl win, he alone will have more than any franchise in the game. That’s not just the MVP of Sunday’s game, but rather the MVP of all-time.
