Should be either Brady or Rodgers. Brady because the Patriots are the best team in the AFC at 7-2 (and having just destroyed the Broncos) and Brady has been a HUGE reason as to why. He has shown that he ALWAYS deliver, regardless of the amount of adversity the team faces. Also, Rodgers deserves recognition because that Green Bay offense wouldn't be going anywhere without him. No Rodgers, no Green Bay Packers. It's that simple. Both QBs have done a great job of righting their respective ships after shaky starts to their seasons. I wouldn't be mad if either won.

I would say DeMarco because he's playing fabulously but I think his production is unsustainable and that he'll be less effective as the season goes on. The amount of responsibility he has on offense is quite onerous and I'm not sure the Cowboys (or himself personally) can ride out the entire season based mainly on how he plays. And they have a tricky schedule ahead.

Peyton is always in the conversation but the Broncos have been disappointing against tough opposition. Yes, he broke the passing-TDs record but that loss against the Patriots leaves a bad image on the team. Peyton has shown that he struggles against physical defenses. Keep in mind that the Broncos were overwhelming favorites to win the AFC. Now, there are 2 other teams that are better than the Broncos (Pats and Colts).

JJ Watt and Antonio Brown deserve consideration for MVP, as well.

They say there aren't any objective Boston fans. A superior education system at its finest.

The bias for QBs is ridiculous to me. To me Murray has been the MVP easily as he's played strong in every game and hasn't had the downs that every QB on the list has had IMO.

JJ watt should get a mention. Dude is just hard work for the O line to handle.

Brady vs Rodgers coming up in a few weeks breh, the first and only time this will probably happen unless they both make SB :blessed:

Brady doesn't have to play Beli's defense. I think the Pats win. The one thing ARod has over Peyton is that he's not a statue and is very mobile.

Rodgers also has a better arm then Manning. And is more accurate especially them back shoulder passes and long balls :wow:

um because there's easily others playing just as good if not better.

Rodgers has 60 less attempts then Brady and has better numbers.
He also has far better receivers. Not too mention he actually has a good RB with Lacy

WR's ill agree but dont act like Nelson and Cobb are some elite WR's...Nelson barely came up in 2011 and Cobb is like Percy Harvin. Ill argue that Tom has a better supporting cast including O-line and TE (something Rodgers never had thru out his career) and also better coach. Miss me with that WR bullshyt. Rodgers helped polish both Nelson and Cobb. Carry on

and LOL@ Lacy being a good RB.. He's hot garbage this year. Dont act like Tommy didnt have a two headed beast back their running the ball in Vereen and Ridley

Rodgers is like Lebron. He's been the best player for years now and everyone knows it, it doesn't really matter who wins MVP.

I know you've got an agenda against Peyton, and I personally prefer Brady too, but you've got to put Peyton in that mix with Rodgers and Brady. Team is playing just as well, he has 2900 yards, 29 TDs, 7 INT's , completing 67.7% of his passes.

I just think at this point no one plays the game of football at a level as high as Rodgers so he's been my MVP for the past few seasons :yeshrug:
I added him to the honorable mention. I have him tied for 3rd with Luck. With everything considered, I think Rodgers and Brady are having better years. Rodgers matches him in stats while Brady isn't too far behind with shyt talent outside of Gronk and won the head-to-head matchup.

Shane Vereen
69 attempts, 310 yards, 4.5 ypc, 1 TD, 34.4 ypg

Steven Ridley (IR)
94 attempts, 340 yards, 3.5 ypc, 2 TD's, 56.7 ypg

Eddie Lacy
119 attempts, 478 yards, 4.0 ypc, 4 TD's, 53.1 ypg

James Starks
49 attempts, 203 yards, 4,1 ypc, 1 TD, 22.6 ypg

Patriots as a team:
ranked 21st in rushing, 101.2 ypg, 3.6 ypc

Green Bay as a team:
ranked 20th, 104.2 ypg, 3.8 ypc

They're virtually even.
