Favorites to win the NFL Offensive Player of the Year award

Saquon Barkley (-500 to -10000)

In 17 games with the Philadelphia Eagles, Barkley has averaged 5.8 yards per carry for 2,005 yards, to go along with 13 touchdowns. Sitting out the Week 18 finale against the Giants, Barkley finished only 101 yards shy of breaking Eric Dickerson's single-season record set in 1984.

Ja'Marr Chase (+400 to +2800)

Although the Cincinnati Bengals failed to qualify for the playoffs, that didn't stop Ja'Marr Chase from putting up video game numbers on offense. The 2021 OPOY winner was in top form this season, last posting 10 catches and 96 receiving yards against Pittsburgh.

The three-time Pro Bowler finished first in receiving yards (1,708), and Joe Burrow's favorite target also capped the season leading the NFL in receiving TDs with 17. 

Josh Allen (+2000 to +10000)

No Stefon Diggs, no problem. Josh Allen is putting together an MVP-caliber season.

The Buffalo Bills superstar boasts a 28-6 TD/INT ratio and 531 rushing yards, leading a 13-4 Bills team. Allen cooled off the past couple of weeks, following a red-hot start to December. In his last two starts, Allen has failed to eclipse 200 yards passing.
