The Regime Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 (edited) Matty Ice probably ruined his chances based on the last game. It was his award to lose heading into this week. Peyton Manning and Tom Brady are picking up steam and ultimately I think it'll come down to either one of them. Defensive players rarely ever win but JJ Watt is easily the most deserving, but you could also make a strong case for Tim Jennings this season as well. I had Harvin as the frontrunner at the end of week 6, but the Vikes have struggled a little and injuries have ruined his chances. It would be awesome to see him win it though since a WR has never won the award. Edited November 19, 2012 by Simba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Check my Stats Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Would be really cool if Manning did. He's got the narrative on his side, that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NomarFachix Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Peterson has a better chance than Harvin does. That said, it will probably be the QB with the best stat sheet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lkr Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 (edited) Way to not put the best QB in the league up there. Even funnier because you put JJ Watt there since he has no shot Edited November 19, 2012 by Lkr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DunkinDerozan Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 (edited) Peyton for sure. Also like Lkr said, Brees deserves a spot on the list over a couple of those guys if the Saints keep rolling Edited November 19, 2012 by DunkinDerozan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRV Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Probably Tom Brady because he has two games left against the Dolphins and that two free 500 yards, 4 TD games if he really wanted it.....and the Pats love to shit on people, so hes going to do it.

Lkr Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Peyton for sure. Also like Lkr said, Brees deserves a spot on the list over a couple of those guys if the Saints keep rollingI see what you did there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Regime Posted November 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Way to not put the best QB in the league up there. Even funnier because you put JJ Watt there since he has no shot It's a shame that defensive players never get as much consideration as QB's and RB's. He's one of the most deserving defense players in recent history imo. Peyton for sure.Also like Lkr said, Brees deserves a spot on the list over a couple of those guys if the Saints keep rolling I'm pretty sure he's referring to Rodgers lol. Brees wont win the award regardless of his stats because his team isnt as good as the aforementioned QB's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Regime Posted November 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 There have been more deserving MVP candidates on defense than Watt in the past decade lol He has 10.5 sacks as a 3-4 defensive end. When was the last time someone at his position did that in a similar scheme? On top of that he has swatted 10 passes; the record for defensive lineman is 13 held by Reggie White. Most people expected the Texans to take a step back defensively after they lost Mario Williams, but as of right now they are 4th in the league in points allowed and yards allowed. It's pretty safe to say that he's a big reason for their success. Obviously the chances of him winning are really slim, but he has been one of the most notable candidates in recent history. And what more deserving candidates are you referring to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what more deserving candidates are you referring to? What impresses me even more about Watt is that he didn't even play in training camp or pre-season because of an injury to his elbow in OTA's. So he's doing all of what you said with an elbow that's probably still not 100%. However I think it's safe to say he won't be getting the MVP because as many have already said he's a defensive player. So far I have Rodgers, Ryan, or Peyton winning it.
