Unless, of course, the Super Bowl ends up just like the Colts/Ravens playoff game, where only field goals are being scored the whole game. And although there has never been a shutout in Super Bowl history, only one time has a team been held without a touchdown in a Super Bowl, and that occurred in Super Bowl VI. Needless to say, that team (the Miami Dolphins) lost that Super Bowl 24-3.

That being said, I think the top candidates for Super Bowl MVP are Peyton Manning, Joseph Addai, Brian Urlacher, Rex Grossman, Devin Hester, and maybe Marvin Harrison, though historically, Peyton Manning and Rex Grossman have the highest chances, so long as their team wins, and Hester probably has the lowest chance of all the possible candidates. A QB has won the SB MVP more times than any other position. By contrast, a kick/punt returner has only won that award ONCE. The irony of Hester winning it is this; the only two kick/punt returners to win the SB MVP award come from rival teams, Hester with the Bears, and Desmond Howard (so far not only the only kick/punt returner to win the award, but the only special teams player period to win it) with the Cheeseheads. Chances of a player on a losing team are even slimmer, as only ONCE has a player on the losing team won the Super Bowl MVP, and that is Chuck Howley of the SB V runner-up Dallas Cowboys.
