Darnold and Maye Super Bowl MVP odds

Darnold (+115): It took Darnold years to shake the "bust" allegations after unsuccessful tenures with the New York Jets and Carolina Panthers.

But that is well in the rear view.

The quarterback lit it up with the Minnesota Vikings last season before they — most likely with regret — let him walk into free agency.

Darnold signed with the Seahawks and made an immediate impact in his first season, throwing 25 touchdowns with a 99.1 passer rating. The former No. 3 pick has been great in the playoffs, too:

  • 470 yards, 68.8 completion percentage, 4 TDs, 0 INTs, 122.4 passer rating.

If Seattle can win this game, Darnold has a good chance of completing his zero-to-hero arc.

Maye (+215): Maye, on the other hand, has been a stud since he entered the league.

The 2024 No. 4 pick is an MVP finalist this season and led the NFL in the following categories:

  • Passing + rushing yards/game (284.9)
  • Completion percentage (72.0)
  • Quarterback rating (113.5)

Maye has struggled in the postseason, though, completing just 55.8% of his passes while taking five sacks per game. His 84.0 postseason quarterback rating would have ranked 37th in the regular season.

To be fair, New England has gone up against some elite defences, and Maye came through in the clutch.

Patriots vs. Seahawks MVP candidates

  • Darnold has been spinning it, but he has two skill position players sitting below 10-to-1, including stud wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
  • JSN led the league in receiving yards (1,793) and has been unguardable all year. The Los Angeles Rams had no answer for him in the NFC Championship game, as he caught 10 of 12 targets for 153 yards and a score.
  • Kenneth Walker III (+650) was operating in a timeshare with Zach Charbonnet until the latter suffered a season-ending injury. Without Charbonnet in the playoffs, Walker has put up 256 all-purpose yards in two games with four TDs.
  • The first Patriots skill position player on the board is Rhamondre Stevenson (+2,500). He was a workhorse in the AFC Championship game, turning 25 carries into 75 yards. Rookie tailback TreVeyon Henderson (+7,500) saw just three carries.
  • Stefon Diggs (+5,000) led the Patriots in targets, catches and receiving yards this year and topped the first two categories in the postseason, as well. The veteran wideout hasn't been very efficient, though, averaging just 7.3 yards per catch in the playoffs.
