Burrow's MVP odds at BetMGM are +450 (second behind Josh Allen at +140), and the source projects that gap should shrink in upcoming weeks. With the Bengals' soft upcoming schedule, it is very easy to envision Burrow leading the MVP race by the end of November. The source also notes that Burrow not having an MVP award will probably work in his favor as voters, and he is the best quarterback in the NFL without an MVP, which usually matters even if not spoken out loud.

Burrow is having a season that might be his best in the NFL; he has 1,653 yards, 15 touchdowns and three interceptions through the source's coverage period. His passer rating of 110.4 would be a career best and is second only to Jared Goff among quarterbacks with 100 attempts. He leads the NFL with a completion percentage of 71.7%. The source projects Burrow could put up ridiculous numbers in November given Cincinnati's soft upcoming schedule (Titans 32nd-ranked DVOA defense, Falcons 11th, Steelers 7th, Commanders 23rd, Saints 30th), with three great matchups available.

Burrow is ranked No. 3 for Week 8 against Tennessee after dominating non-divisional opponents (40-17-2 ATS, 33.3% ROI) and posting elite production since Week 3 (25.5 fantasy points per game, 1,192 yards passing, 12 TDs, 2 INTs with 11-41-1 rushing) following a slow start in Weeks 1-2 (15.7 fantasy points per game, 461 yards passing, 3 TDs, 1 INT with 6-19-0 rushing); the Titans rank No. 31 in defensive pass DVOA (32.9%).

Burrow threw for 292 yards and 4 TDs without an interception in Week 7, his second straight game with 4 passing TDs and no INTs; his point totals have increased in each of his six games this season, with 25.96 fantasy points in the third and fourth quarters being his most second-half points ever, posting season-highs in passer rating (143.3), yards per attempt (9.7), EPA per dropback (0.51), passing success rate (62.5%), and completion percentage over expected (8.4%) per Next Gen Stats.

Joe Burrow threw for 249 yards and four touchdowns in a half against the Ravens, leading the Bengals to a 35-0 victory in the second half on Sunday. This performance has elevated his MVP odds to +450 at BetMGM, moving him into second place behind Josh Allen (+140). The source notes Burrow's numbers are exceptional this season and the Bengals' team success gives him a legitimate MVP chance; voters like spreading the award around, which could help Burrow similar to how it benefited Allen two years ago. Burrow has a favorable schedule ahead starting with the Titans in Week 8, positioning him to continue cutting into Allen's MVP lead.

The source grades Burrow as an 'A-' and notes that the Bengals have been relatively inconsistent through seven weeks, but Burrow led a comeback from 13-0 down against the Ravens, scoring 35 unanswered points. 'Joe Burrow was responsible for four touchdowns, bringing his total to 15 on the year through six games.' The source suggests if the defense continues to play as they did in the second half, 'this will be a tough team to beat down the stretch.'

The source projects the Bengals offense to score at least 35 points against the Titans in Week 8, stating "It's hard to see a scenario where Joe Burrow and the Bengals don't hang 35 on the Titans." This projection is grounded in the Titans' defensive struggles and the Bengals' offensive firepower advantage; the source argues that if Cincinnati scores 35, Tennessee cannot keep the game within the 10.5-point spread due to offensive limitations.
