The NFL MVP race continues to take shape as we enter Week 11 of the 2021 NFL season. Individual performance as well as team success both play major roles in determining the NFL MVP. The results from each week have a huge impact on the standings for the award. Here are the top five candidates for NFL MVP right now.
NFL MVP Power Rankings
#5 - QB Tom Brady, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Last week: #2
Tom Brady fell a few spots in the NFL MVP Power Rankings after suffering a second straight loss. He is still having an excellent season, ranking in the top three in the NFL in passing yards, passing touchdowns, passer rating and QBR. Antonio Brown and Rob Gronkowski will soon be back from injury so Brady could potentially be even better down the stretch.
#4 - QB Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers
Last week: Unranked
Aaron Rodgers enters the top five of the NFL MVP race for the first time this season. Team success is the biggest factor. The Packers have not lost a game started by Aaron Rodgers since Week 1 against the Saints. Rodgers is not necessarily filling up the stat sheet, but he's been efficient. If the Packers keep rolling like this, Rodgers could win his fourth NFL MVP.
NFL MVP Power Rankings: Top 3
#3 - QB Kyler Murray, Arizona Cardinals
Last week: #1
Kyler Murray fell from the top spot in the NFL MVP race after missing his second straight game due to injury. The Cardinals are hoping to have him back this week, but they could wait one more game because of their bye next week. Murray still leads the NFL in completion percentage and yards per attempt while ranking in the top five in passer rating and QBR.
#2 - QB Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys
Last week: Unranked
Dak Prescott fell out of the top five in the NFL MVP race after the Cowboys suffered an ugly loss to the Denver Broncos. He surged back up to number two in the NFL MVP Power Rankings after a huge bounce-back game. Prescott currently leads the NFL in passer rating with a 70 percent completion of his passes this season. The Cowboys are the top-ranked offense in the NFL this season.

#1 - QB Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills
Last week: #4
Josh Allen moves back into first place in the NFL MVP standings after one week away from it. He ranks in the top ten in touchdowns, passer rating and QBR with the fifth most passing yards. Allen also has the third-most rushing yards among quarterbacks, which demonstrates his versatility. He is the current betting odds favorite to win the NFL MVP award. He is the key to the Buffalo Bills' success.
