Default Brady = MVP
http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slu...v=ap&type=lgns


No surprise. Got 49/50 votes. Favre got the other one. Chris Havel must've had a vote this year.

So Favre is now the only 3 time MVP and 2 time runner-up in the league.

I'm actually surprised Randy Moss didn't get any votes.

After he told the media he was happy to shove the TD record in their collective faces, I'm not.

No bad games for Brady. Even if he knew what the defense was throwing at him, he still didnt fuck up.

well we know what Brady's gonna use as his motivation next year:

"only 98% of sportswriters think I'm the most valuable player in the country. I'll show them!"

That might be the only thing he's got, unfortuneately.

Personally I think that Moss should have been the MVP. Brady got away with so many ugly throws to Moss where Moss was just sitting there waiting for the ball on deep throws. Moss makes a quarterback look so much better. Look at Culpepper. Brady probably comes off as the more likeable of the two though, I guess.

Moss failed to make Brooks, 2-E-Ah-sosopo, and whoever else look anything but terrible.

But I agree that he should have garnered some votes.

Brady is more likable to the 50 voters, but his getting 0 is telling.

his qb rating against the jets was 51.9. I d say thats a bad game he also had a few in the 70s that werent stellar.

Yeah I personally thought Moss should have gotten more votes. He was incredible this year but again that goes hand in hand with Brady and the QB will get it over the WR everytime.

When half of those go to one receiver... then yes, there should be.

No, No Doubt that he would get the MVP.

Deserve it, thats open to conversation. Did he have the best season as a QB this year? I would say he did. Was he the single most valuable player in the league? I dont know.

Thats part of the deal, its not always who is truely the most valuable player in the entire league, its more about who is the medias feel good story. Who did they fall in love with each year. Often previous years achievments lend weight to who gets named MVP.

I dont know who else should have been named. I can see reasons for Moss or Favre. But who else. I am willing to accept that Brady should have gotten it, I just just wish it would have been someone else.

is this most valuable to your team or the league? if it most valuable to your respective team, then brady shouldnt have won, it should have been either Favre or Moss. without Brett, Packers are under .500, without moss, brady doesnt even throw 30 tds.

In a perfect world, they would look at each team, decide on 32 MVPs from each team, based on how much effect that persons play, has on their team. The player that has the greatest impact on thier team should be its MVP.

Then they should decide from those 32, who has the greatest impact of all. if you take that player out of the equation and does it really kill their team. Do some good hard analyise to determine which player is truely the MVP in the league.

Funny, Devin Hester becomes a solid canidate. Adrain Peterson, or even Steve Hutchison could be considered. But they doent look at it like that. Its really just a gut feeling call by the committee.
