Megaton isn't winning OPOY, don't know why he's being brought up

Seriously. Only thing I will compromise on is Manning getting the Comeback player after hearing about these 4 surgeries. But on some real shyt...I say give all three to Adrian.

Their injuries are irrelevant to the mvp discussion.

It is because that's what eliminates AD.

Payton was completely written off...I do not know any sane person who had the broncos with those wins.

AD was always going to come back

Peyton has a top 5 defense and it can be argued since the pats game they've been the best in football.

On the otherhand, it can be argued the biggest reason for the Vikings turn around this season was their massive defensive improvement. They went from arguably the worst in football(tebow killed them last year smh)to a top 12 unit. While the offense even with AP's historic season is scoring about the same as it did last season.

fukk no, His season was the definition of empty stats.

They were down in the second half damn near every game and their QB just throws it up to him on his back leg every play

Megaton isn't winning OPOY, don't know why he's being brought up

Seriously.

Calvin deserves OPOY cuz he put up the most impressive offensive performance.


OPOY is most about stats than any of the other awards. You can try to dismiss them as empty, but "fullness" of stats is an mvp problem. No one has EVER put up 1900 yards. He's a WR, wins/losses aren't as important unless you're trying to throw him in the mvp discussion....which no one is doing.

Being "written off" as a player has NOTHING to do with the most valuable player discussion.

Comeback player of the year? Sure, then we can talk about their injuries. MVP, its irrelevant...all that matters is their play THIS year.

They were 4-1 this season at the beginning and Peterson was slightly above average during that period :usure:

He may have been able to win it any other year, but OPOY is going to go to whoever doesn't get the MVP between Manning & AD

Who actually wins it depends on how the votes pan out...I'm just speaking on who deserves it.

This OPOY as a consolation prize is dumb reasoning to me. Rodgers deserved the MVP last year cuz he played like the best player in the league and affected his team's performance so much with his great play. Brees' performance was more impressive, tho, from an individual player standpoint. It wasn't a consolation prize.
