2017 Super Bowl 51 MVP Odds & Predictions – Top 3 Favorites to Win Super Bowl 51 MVP

New England Patriots QB Tom Brady(+140 odds to win Super Bowl 51 MVP) – The 39 year-old quarterback for the Patriots had a sensational 2016 season in which he passed for 3,554 yards and 28 touchdowns to go against just 2 interceptions. Of course, he did all that in just 12 games after serving a ridiculous 4 game suspension for “Deflate-gate”. The quarterback leads a potent offense despite being without all pro tight end Rob Gronkowski and we see Brady being able to put up big numbers against a shaky Atlanta Falcons defense in Super Bowl 51. A 5th Super Bowl ring and 4th Super Bowl MVP for Brady would give him a strong case to be considered the greatest quarterback of all-time.

Atlanta Falcons QB Matt Ryan(+225 odds to win Super Bowl 51 MVP) – The 31 year-old quarterback had the best season of his NFL career in 2016 and should easily be named the 2016 NFL MVP in our opinion. Ryan was phenomenal in 2016 as he led the NFL with a 117.1 QB rating and tossed for 4,944 yards to go with 38 touchdowns and only 7 interceptions. Ryan was simply fantastic this season as he helped lead the Falcons to the league’s highest-scoring offense averaging over 33 points per game. Ryan will have to bring his “A” game in Super Bowl 51 to give the Falcons a chance to win the game as he’ll be facing the NFL’s top scoring defense in New England. However, Ryan has more than enough weapons in his arsenal to put up a lot of points against New England and should be a top favorite to win Super Bowl MVP if Atlanta prevails.

Atlanta Falcons WR Julio Jones(+1000 odds to win Super Bowl 51 MVP) – One could make a strong case that this 27 year-old sensation is the best overall player in the Super Bowl this season as Jones is without a doubt the best wide receiver and possibly player in the NFL. Jones is simply unstoppable in one on one matchups and will most likely be double covered all game long by New England as head coach Bill Belichick is notorious for devising game plans to take away the opposing team’s best offensive player. However, that’s a lot easier said than done and Jones should still have his fair share of catches in Super Bowl 51 and can easily win MVP if he is able to produce yards after the catch and get into the end zone a couple of times. Jones caught 83 balls for 1,409 yards and 6 TDs this season and he could be the make or break player for Atlanta’s fortunes in Super Bowl 51. He needs a big game.

2017 Super Bowl 51 MVP Prediction if New England Wins – Call us crazy but we will take a flier on New England running back LeGarrette Blount at +1800 odds. The bruising running back led the NFL with 18 touchdowns this season and we have a feeling New England is going to pound the ball more than people expect in Super Bowl 51 against a weak Atlanta run defense that should get pushed around by New England’s offensive line. Don’t be surprised to see Blount rush for more than 100 yards and score a couple of times on the ground. At +1800 odds he is well worth a $100 bet that would bring back $1800.

2017 Super Bowl 51 MVP Prediction if Atlanta Wins – We look for Matt Ryan to put up huge stats in this game as he will toss the ball 40 plus times and should be able to take advantage of a New England defense that plays a “bend but don’t break” style and freely allows opposing teams to stack up a lot of yards until they clamp down inside the red zone. Ryan should have his opportunities in the red zone to get Falcons td’s and not fg’s so we look for Ryan to win the MVP easily if the Falcons win as that would mean Ryan is tossing at least 3 plus touchdowns.
