So, what kind of season can the Pittsburgh Steelers expect to see from quarterback Kenny Pickett in what will be his second year in the NFL?

According to one particular outlet, he's actually a sleeper to win the NFL MVP Award; right now, his current odds are listed at +4500. Not surprisingly at all, Kanasas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes leads the way with +700 odds, followed by Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow at +750.  

"Dark horse candidates are always bad bets because they’re always on average-ass teams and they need everything to go right for their team to win," Ronde Barber of the 33rd Team wrote. "Kenny Pickett showed that he has some serious game down the stretch in 2022 and that he is suited for the NFL. He’s got two really good young receivers and a stud tight end. If the Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense rebounds, he’ll get them into the playoffs."

His fellow dark horse candidates include Dak Prescott, Jared Goff, Russell Wilson, Trey Lance and Justin Jefferson.
