Currently, the nationwide sportsbooks I use for this column are not posting in-season odds for Defensive Rookie of the Year or Coach of the Year. So, if you are debating an in-season play on either of those or the other awards discussed in this column, feel free to reach out to me via Twitter @RyanReynNJ or via email [email protected]. My offseason study is the foundation for my awards process, and that can be found here.
Once the season starts, the main purpose of this column is to identify decision points on an awards bet. Before certain games there is a decision whether to sell or hold one’s position in an awards bet, just as there are opportunities to buy (or in some cases, buy back). Feel free to reach out via email or Twitter if you’re pondering that type of move as well. Additionally, at the bottom of this column I wrote extensively about my current thoughts on my Mike Tomlin Coach of the Year position and how I’m handling a longshot bet that is now the favorite for an award.

The MVP Contenders
Russell Wilson (+125 DraftKings, MGM): Wilson did not play particularly well in Buffalo last week. Still, his MVP odds did not take a dramatic dip as Wilson still leads the league in passing touchdowns despite already having his bye in the books; he’s fourth in QBR, he’s second in rating and his Seahawks are now 6-2. Once again, Wilson has two losable games over the next two weeks, with a divisional game at the Rams in Week 10 and a home game against the Cardinals, who already beat Seattle, on Thursday night in Week 11. We are now at the point where if Wilson doesn’t win both of these games, he could surrender his ever-shrinking lead in the MVP race.
