With the NFL season just around the corner, Madden 22 has released the list of highest-rated quarterbacks. The players who took the top spots aren’t exactly a surprise, but how does this list compare to their betting odds to win the MVP this season?

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes tops the Madden 22 quarterbacks list with a 99 rating overall. He is also the favorite to win this season’s MVP Award with +500 odds. Next on the Madden 22 list is Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady with a 97 overall rating, but his odds to win MVP are a bit longer at +1400.
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who was named the MVP last season, comes in at No. 3 on Madden’s list with an overall rating of 96. His MVP odds are the second-shortest behind Mahomes at +1000.
At No. 4 on this list we’ve got Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson with a 94 rating overall. He’s tied with Brady to win MVP at +1400 odds. Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson rounds out the Top 5 on the Madden list with a 90 overall rating. His odds to win MVP are +1600.
Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson is No. 6 on Madden’s list with a 90 overall rating. His odds to win MVP are a little longer at +2000. No. 7 on Madden’s list is Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen with a rating of 88 overall. His MVP odds are the third-shortest at +1200.
At No. 8 we have Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott with an 87 overall rating. His MVP odds sit at +1400, tied with Brady and Wilson. No. 9 on Madden’s list is Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill, also with an overall rating of 87. His odds to win the MVP are even longer than Watson’s at +2500.
And No. 10 on this list is Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan with an overall rating of 85. His MVP odds are also the longest on this list at +3500.
Not only do I think Brady will win the MVP this year, I see him taking the award after leading the Buccaneers to repeat as Super Bowl champions (+600).
