QBs are always a good bet to win the Super Bowl MVP and its no different in 2015 with Tom Brady and Russell Wilson.
Six of the last eight Super Bowl MVPs have been quarterbacks and 26 quarterbacks have been named Super Bowl MVP in the 48 title games.
Not surprisingly, quarterbacks Tom Brady and Russell Wilson sit atop the betting board for the Super Bowl MVP odds prop bet at Vegas sportsbooks and those monitored by OddsShark.com.
Tom Brady is the clear favorite on the odds win the Super Bowl XLIX MVP award at 8/5. Brady is one of only five players in NFL history with at least two Super Bowl MVP awards and could join Joe Montana as the only other player with three if he wins it this year.
As the face of the franchise and the straw that stirs the offensive drink, Brady seems like the likely winner should New England win Super Bowl XLIX.
Seattle's two offensive stars are both going off at similar Super Bowl XLIX MVP odds as Russell Wilson is 7/2 to take home MVP honors and Marshawn Lynch is 4/1. With a win, Lynch could break a 16-year drought for the running back position and become the first running back to win the award since Terrell Davis did so back in Super Bowl XXXII.
Rob Gronkowski could become the first tight end in NFL history to win the Super Bowl MVP award and is going off at 9/1 at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com. Gronkowski has the ability to put up huge numbers, and if he can separate himself from Julian Edelman (25/1), Brandon LaFell (66/1) and Danny Amendola (75/1) he could come away with it.
LeGarrette Blount is an interesting pick to consider at 12/1. Blount out-shined Brady against Indianapolis with 148 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns, and another day like that would put him firmly into the discussion.
Malcolm Smith (100/1) became the first defensive player in 11 years to win the Super Bowl MVP award in Seattle's Super Bowl victory last year. Seattle's shutdown defense includes potential MVP candidates like Kam Chancellor (33/1), Richard Sherman (33/1), Earl Thomas (40/1) and Bobby Wagner (50/1).
No field goal kicker has ever won the Super Bowl MVP award, but Stephen Gostkowski and Steven Hauschka are each available at 100/1 for Super Bowl XLIX.
