As the NFL MVP race nears its conclusion, Matthew Stafford’s performance has faltered, shifting the odds dramatically in favor of New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye. In Week 17, Maye delivered an exceptional game against the Jets, while Stafford struggled with three interceptions in a loss to the Falcons. This has led to Maye becoming the clear front-runner, with current odds at -400 compared to Stafford’s +300. Both quarterbacks will make their final cases in Week 18, but Maye’s rise is a notable achievement early in his career.
