Forty-one of the 50 sportswriters tasked with picking the MVP took Mahomes, while the other nine selected New Orleans Saints signal-caller Drew Brees, per NFL.com's David Ely.
Mahomes joins Kurt Warner, Dan Marino, Earl Campbell and Jim Brown (twice) as the only players to win the AP NFL MVP in their first or second season in the league.
