That game kinda feels similar to the Rams game for Mahomes in 2018, where the defense played poorly AND the QB made some huge mistakes that helped cause the loss.
Russell is still on pace for 56 TD and has an enormous advantage in terms of voter sentiment. Also think Brady has a shot at it due to the huge turnaround we are seeing in Tampa. The voters will be looking for a reason to NOT give it to Mahomes due to all the success he has had the last couple seasons. Just my 2 cents.

This guy's got the right of it.
In case anyone here is unaware, Russell Wilson has never received a single MVP vote, not one. The narrative is very strong to finally give him one. Plus, I mean, he's had a couple stinkers, but he created himself quite a cushion with his first five or six games.
