Whos the MVP? Brees set the record for most passing yards that has stood for over 25 years! Has his team set up good to go deep in the playoffs. Rodgers is a freak and doing his thing. I think a lot of people unfairly already gave him the MVP weeks ago when they were pre determined to go undefeated. Now that they have that loss under their belt, seems as if the vision has shifted to a more fair outloook. Also when talking about Rodgers it seems as if eveyone wants to talk about what he's done and how consistent he's been over the past two years. Two years ago doesn't matter. The MVP last year was already handed out. So as far as THIS year who is the MVP? How do you look past the guy that has the most passing yards in a single season in the history of the NFL? Probably splitting hairs when debating the two. And I'm not taking a thing away from Rodgers. What he's done and how he perfroms each week is incredible.
The only thing keeping me from picking Brees is TD-Int ratio and overall wins. Yardage sure Brees wins hands down, but I think TD-INT ratio should always supercede just simply yardage. Now if Rodgers would have over 10 INTs or say close to 15 and he wouldn't have had to take everyone's best shot at knocking the defending champs down Brees wins hands down. But honestly it's like picking 1a and 1b, either way an absolute stud QB is going to be chosen and the other will be snubbed.
Brady will likely break the same record this weekend. If he wouldn't have won last season he would be in consideration right now too. He has his team sitting at the top of the AFC with the worst defense in the league (I chuckle at GB fans claiming a terrible D). Sad thing is, is he won last year and his season this year isn't as impressive as his previous (still impressive). This year is tough with 3 QBs neck and neck all with top records for their teams, and amazing stats for the year. I'd still give my vote to Rodgers though.
Rodgers has more wins, more touchdowns, less interceptions, and more yards per attempt. He also has more rushing yards, rushing touchdowns and has the #1 seed in the playoffs.
Great stats, no doubt...BUT, who is more valuable to his team? FTR, I think Rodgers will win. Writers love stats. Although, Brees is the hot topic right now. Writers also have "what have you done for me lately" syndrome. Hmmm...I still think it will be Rodgers.
I think we're looking at another year of the co-mvp with Brees and Rodgers. I just hope we get to see them go head to head one more time in the NFC Championship game, what a game it should be!
Yeah his 5 TD passes last week probably doesn't hurt his what have you done for me mentality. I agree.... I think Rodgers will win it.
Who is most valuable to their team is a good question. I do not beleive the Saints or the Packers are playoff teams without their QB's.
I'd say Rodgers if I were a betting man, but since I am not, I say Rodgers because that's who I think will win.
I'm going with Brees. I am sentimental and like underdogs. Most said Brees wouldn't be much of a pro QB, I thought differently since I watched all the Purdue games I could.
