Even with plenty of discussion about Russell Wilson to start the 2020 season, personnel think Patrick Mahomes is more deserving of the MVP award at the halfway point, per Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated.
A poll of 31 anonymous NFL executives gave Mahomes the nod to win MVP with 17 votes, ahead of Wilson with nine. Ben Roethlisberger (three votes), Alvin Kamara (one vote) and Aaron Rodgers (one vote) were the only other players to receive votes.
Mahomes has the Kansas City Chiefs off to a 8-1 start to the season and currently has 25 passing touchdowns with just one interception to go with his 2,687 passing yards.
