What is Super Bowl MVP Betting?
The Super Bowl MVP is the player that is judged to be the most valuable. While there are exceptions, typically, the Super Bowl MVP is an offensive player on the winning team, most often the quarterback. Being the Super Bowl MVP is a prestigious honor that enhances a player’s career and defines their legacy. It is a reward that has been earned by legends of the game like Tom Brady, Joe Montana, Ray Lewis, and Jerry Rice.
The Super Bowl MVP is not only something the players pay attention to, but it is a huge deal for bettors. It is one of the most commonly bet-on markets for the Super Bowl. How it works is very simple. Before the game kicks off, fans will place their bet on the player that they believe is most likely to be crowned the Super Bowl MVP at the end of the game. If they are right, they win.
This is not a market that is easy to win. Not only does it require bettors to pick the team that will win, as only one player has ever won Super Bowl MVP on the losing team, but it also requires bettors to pick the player that will shine the most in that game. Unlikely candidates like Malcolm Smith, Deion Branch, and Dexter Jackson have all claimed the reward, so there is very much an element of risk in this bet. However, that does mean the payouts are high, so bettors should certainly enjoy this big-time market.
How to choose the MVP bet?
2025 Super Bowl MVP Betting Insights
When it comes to betting on the Super Bowl MVP, typically, bettors will target quarterbacks. 33 of the 56 Super Bowl MVP awards have gone to the winning quarterback, including 11 of the past 15. More often than not, the player who will take home the award is a QB. However, because that is the case, quarterbacks will often have the least-favorable odds for bettors. If you want to mix it up, the second most common position to win the Super Bowl MVP is a wide receiver, with eight wideouts claiming the MVP, including five since 2005, as the position has become more important than ever.
The Super Bowl is still relatively far away, as we haven’t wrapped up the regular season. Still, fans are naturally looking ahead and wondering. Could Patrick Mahomes secure the honour again? Will it be Josh Allen’s time to shine? Could it be someone much more unexpected?
However, with the game still so far off, no respectable betting sites have released their odds. It is still not even clear which teams will make the playoffs, so it is an exercise in futility to bet on something as specific as which player will win Super Bowl MVP. However, Super Bowl odds have dropped, and we will keep you updated on Super Bowl MVP odds as they are released.
There are a ton of options when it comes to this market, as any player can win. While quarterback is the safest bet, this is a market that will keep bettors guessing until the final whistle blows.
When can I bet on the Super Bowl MVP?
There are websites that will allow you to bet on the Super Bowl MVP as soon as the season begins. However, that is not something that would be advisable for bettors. So much can change over the course of an NFL season, from injuries to performance drop-offs, so betting on something as narrow as who will win Super Bowl MVP before the season begins is like buying a lottery ticket.
At the time of writing, the season is still being played, so the field is wide open. As that field narrows, the odds for Super Bowl MVP will shift. On the top Canadian betting sites, you can monitor and track the odds. Our advice would be to wait until the Super Bowl is set if you want to have the maximum likelihood of succeeding in this market. This is when the odds are more stabilized, and bettors have the info they need to make an informed guess.
Why should I bet on the Super Bowl MVP?
The Super Bowl MVP bet is one that adds a fun additional wrinkle to your Super Bowl betting experience. The Super Bowl is the most bet-on sporting event in America every year, and it is always fun for bettors to have several bets riding. With the Super Bowl MVP bet, instead of just being invested in a team's performance, you can take an interest in how an individual player performs on the biggest stage.
Another reason to focus on Super Bowl MVP betting is that it allows bettors to place a Super Bowl bet on something that has long odds. Because the Super Bowl MVP is quite random, there typically won’t be an odds-on favorite to win the award. This means bettors can have higher payouts and benefit from the unpredictable nature of this style of betting.
