Throughout the 2022 NFL season, the talk of hobby decline ran parallel to every week that passed. One of the only consistent things since week 1 (September 11th) was hobby talk of a declining market and Jalen Hurts playing at an MVP level.

Hurts big market jump came after a big week 6 division rival victory with them beating the Cowboys, in which the Eagles moved to 6-0. It is understandable why, as he was statistically dominant across those six games.

While Hurts is not the MVP favorite due to Mahomes having another insane season. Despite this Mahomes market is down over -36% while Hurts is seeing new highs every day after a breakout season. With Hurts arriving to stardom, it seems that a breakout season outweighs a consistent MVP level season.
