NFL : M. Stafford MVP -120 (1u)

I have played Matthew Stafford to be the NFL MVP and I suggest you guys do the same. The NFL regular season wrapped up yesterday and left us with a 2 horse race for league MVP: Stafford and Drake Maye. While Maye had a fantastic season, Stafford left voters with a fantastic final game as he threw for 259 yards and 4 more TD's - bringing him to 4707 yards and 46 TD's with just 8 INT's on the season. Maye was pulled late in the game yesterday but only finished with 191 yards and 1 TD, bringing his season total to 4394 yards and 31 TD's to just 8 INT's. While Maye was more effective with his legs and positioned his Patriots to a better season and playoff seed, Stafford has been the focal point for the majority of the season and fits the mold for the MVP. A guy who people questioned if he'd even play this season due to back injuries. A team that was a shell of themselves without Aaron Donald and Cooper Kupp coming into the year. Maybe Stafford's final season of his 17 year career. All of this narrative, yet Stafford comes out and leads the league in both yards and passing TD's. Stafford has had many incredible seasons, both with the Lions and Rams, but has yet to win an MVP. Now pulling his best Tom Brady in year 17, I fully expect the voting committee to reward his efforts and vote him as the league MVP, knowing that Maye will have plenty more chances. NFL awards are as much storyline based as they are stats based, and Matthew Stafford clears Drake Maye in both categories. I would be shocked if Matthew Stafford doesn't win league MVP in February. Bet on Stafford to be the League MVP for 2025-26.
