Patrick Mahomes II
Arguably the greatest quarterback in the entire NFL, Patrick Mahomes is always a threat to win the NFL MVP, and after a dismal postseason by his standards, we can expect a revenge tour for Mahomes the likes of which have never been seen. Losing star wide receiver Tyreek Hill makes the road much more difficult, but if Mahomes can still put up his inhuman numbers without Hill, he will undoubtedly win his 2nd MVP.

After a masterful outing in the postseason against Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs, all eyes are on The Bills' superstar quarterback Josh Allen to pick up right where he left off and lead the Bills to the promised land. Allen lead the team to an impressive 11-6 record last season, but if he shows the promise he did in the postseason and keeps his interceptions low, there is no doubt that Allen should be a frontrunner for NFL MVP.

Jefferson's only been in the NFL for two seasons and he already feels like a ten-year pro. Not only has the WR been a Pro Bowler in both years, he's also earned Second-team All-Pro honors twice. After putting up ludicrous numbers in his rookie season - 88 grabs, 1,400 yards, 7 TDs - Jefferson followed that up in year two by going for 108 catches, 1,616 yards, and 10 TDs! Jefferson is the real deal. With former L.A. Rams OC Kevin O'Connell taking over as head coach in Minnesota, it's possible the key to unlocking this versatile and multifaceted Vikings offense, could happen by turning Justin Jefferson into the next Cooper Kupp.

Cincinnati Bengals superstar Joe Burrow made a resounding statement in the 2022 postseason that he has indeed arrived and is going to be a problem in the NFL for decades to come. Burrow was already the highest-rated quarterback last season, and with the Bengals patching holes in the team, the Bengals and Burrow are looking to make a statement, that they are the best team in the NFL.

The Philadelphia Eagles star quarterback Jalen Hurts has continued to show slow and steady growth as a player, but he could very well take the jump that many of his fans suspect him to this year. At 24 years of age, Hurts is a long shot for this award, however, if he can lead what many consider to be a lackluster team to huge success, all eyes will be on Hurts and he will undoubtedly get all the credit for the team's success.

Derrick Henry has proved that he is one of the best and most productive running backs in the entire NFL over the last 5 seasons. Always at the top or at the very least near the top of the league in rushing, Henry may be entering the twilight of his career, but many suspects he will have one last hurrah left in him. With the Titans losing faith in Ryan Tannehill and A.J. Brown gone from the team, Henry will need to carry the team on his back, which could in turn achieve him his MVP.
