![]() He was picked in the sixth round of the NFL draft for the 2000 season by the New England Patriots and has led the team to the big game a total of five times winning the championship three times. During the 2011-12 season, he compiled 5,225-yards for 39-touchdowns for a quarterback rating of 105.6 and has led the Patriots into Indianapolis with a 13-3 regular season. While the defense might be a bit suspect, it is easy to see why Super Bowl 2012 odds to win the MVP favor Tom Brady. Bookmakers in Vegas and at online sportsbooks have listed Brady as a 7/5 NFL betting favorite to win the most valuable player award followed by Giants QB Eli Manning at 9/4 and WR Victor Cruz 8/1. Rounding out the top five choices are Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski and Giants WR Hakeem Nicks 12/1. The championship game can be seen live on NBC, February 5th at 6:30pm EST. Whether or not you are a fan of Brady's off-field decisions in his personal life, nobody can argue that the 34-year old is probably one of the top-10 quarterbacks to ever have played the game. To add to his accomplishments; Brady has also earned the MVP award twice, was selected for eight Pro Bowls and holds numerous NFL records which includes throwing the most touchdown passes during the regular season at 50 (2007). Despite throwing 2-interceptions vs the Ravens in the AFC conference championship, Brady still helped New England to go 2-0 in the postseason throwing 602-yards for 6-touchdowns for a quarterback rating of 105.8. While you might not make that much money on picking the 10-year starter from Michigan in Super Bowl 2012 odds to win the MVP at 7/5, his career trends are well worth the -$140 risk to win $240. Bookmakers in Vegas have listed Eli Manning as the second choice to claim the most valuable player award at 9/4. The Giants quarterback has been no slouch this season either throwing for 4,933-yards with 29-touchdowns for a QB rating of 92.9. During the playoffs, Manning has played even better throwing for 923-yards with 8-touchdowns for a rating of 103.1 in the Giants three consecutive wins over the Falcons, Packers and 49ers. As a seven year starter, Manning has led New York to the championship game once for the 2007 title and walked away with the Lombardi and most valuable player trophy. Manning will have the chance to go 2-0 with a win in the 2012 Super Bowl since the Giants have recently gone 7-3 straight up when playing away from home but NFL betting trends also show a weary 2-4 mark straight up when playing the Patriots.
