He Is Down To 5% At Friction Markets About 12 To 1 At Books Why Is He Down This Win Should Move His Odds Up MVP Is A Team Award You Need To Win Games And Get High Seeds This Is Not Proof That Lamar Is Not Valuable That's Insane

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Jackson's MVP odds dropped unfairly; his historical precedent supports one more missed game.

Lamar Jackson's MVP odds dropped to 5% at friction markets and 12-to-1 at books after missing one game, but Brandon Anderson argues this is 'insane' because MVP is a team award requiring wins and high seeds; Jackson won the award in 2019 and 2023 while missing exactly one game in both seasons, suggesting he can miss one more game and still be viable for the award.
