Did Matthew Stafford Lock Up the NFL MVP? | HARD PASS Ep. 75

Did Matthew Stafford Lock Up the NFL MVP? | HARD PASS Ep. #75

Can the NFL MVP really come from a Wild Card team? … Doug Kezirian believes not only CAN it happen, but that it most likely WILL happen 👀

Doug breaks down why Matthew Stafford is on track to win the NFL MVP, why the betting odds don’t accurately reflect how likely it actually is, and why voters are lining up behind him despite the Rams likely finishing as a Wild Card team.

From Stafford’s monster prime-time performance on Thursday Night Football, to voter fatigue working against Josh Allen, to Drake Maye missing his moment late in the season, Doug explains why all the narratives, numbers, and timing are falling perfectly into place for Stafford. If Stafford can make one final statement in his upcoming Monday Night Football game, that could lock down the award. Doug also dives into how “lifetime achievement” voting quietly plays a role in MVP races more than people want to admit.
