Winners Club: Comprehensive Chiefs-Eagles Super Bowl LVII Betting Breakdown
When Patrick Mahomes takes the field Sunday for his third Super Bowl appearance, he will do so as a two-time MVP.
The Chiefs quarterback received the award Thursday night at the NFL Honors in recognition of his magnificent regular season. But, as Michael Fabiano pointed out earlier this week, MVP winners have been 0–8 in the Super Bowl since 2000.
If anyone can break that streak, it’s likely to be Mahomes, whose team is a 1.5-point underdog against the Eagles in the Big Game. Sunday marks the first time Mahomes is a playoff underdog in his career.

Suns’ NBA Title Odds Jump After KD Trade
Phoenix’s surprise deadline deal for Kevin Durant pushed the team into the upper echelon of title contenders with Boston and Milwaukee.
No team in the West has better odds of winning it all than the Suns, whose odds were slashed from +1700 down to +450. In the East, the Celtics' and Bucks' odds both got a slight bump—Boston, the favorite, went from +300 to +260, and Milwaukee improved from +400 to +350.
The Lakers and Clippers also made upgrades to their current rosters, resulting in improved odds of winning the Finals. The former brought in D'Angelo Russell, Malik Beasley and Jarred Vanderbilt, and the latter added Eric Gordon, Bones Hyland and Mason Plumlee.
Plenty of other teams entered the fray of a very busy trade deadline that saw All-Stars and role players jumping teams that shook up the very makeup of the league. Second-round picks were all the rage on Thursday as they got shipped off by the boatload, and several players returned to their former teams.
Get a recap of the deadline action and see where the dust settled in the NBA futures market.
Rohan Nadkarni assigned winners and losers to sort through all the transactions, and you can also find trade grades for the Durant deal, Russell Westbrook trade, Kyrie Irving move and more from the last week around the association.
