Below is the list of players who earned an MVP Point after Week 1 of the NFL regular season, listed alphabetically.
Remember that the first condition for a player to get an MVP Point is that his team has to win the game. It's probable that:
Roughly half the 0-1 teams will win this week, meaning the number of players with an MVP Point will increase by 50%.
At the same time, roughly half the 1-0 teams will lose this week, meaning about half of the players below will still have just one MVP Point.
Of the teams that will elevate to 2-0, many players on the list below will not reach the same benchmarks (97.0 passer rating or 70 yards from scrimmage) as last week. Therefore, the list of players with two MVP points next week will likely be less than half the size of this list.
