Christian McCaffrey overtakes Brock Purdy in MVP odds and is now second overall

The ever-changing MVP odds have once again flipped. For a few weeks now, San Francisco 49ers (-13.5)

quarterback Brock Purdy and Dallas Cowboys (-6) quarterback Dak Prescott have flipped back and forth between the favorite.

Then, Week 16 happened. Both the Cowboys and Niners lost to playoff teams. When you lose this late in the year, it puts a damper on your MVP hopes. When you throw four interceptions in a primetime game, you’ll be lucky to still be on the podium the week after.

Baltimore Ravens (-3.5)

quarterback Lamar Jackson’s stats may not be as impressive as some others, but he passes the eye test with flying colors and made numerous “MVP” level plays against one of the better defenses in the NFL on Monday night.
