The MVP award can go to someone with the best stats, in which case, very hard to go against Rodgers, even if I hate the guy. There’s a few other QBs that did have comparable numbers. Look at Brady - for example, the guy is the oldest QB in the league, switches teams, and takes the team and wins a SB. I know the MVP is a regular season award, so the playoffs don’t make a difference, but the MVP could and perhaps should go to who truly is the most valuable player to a team. It’s not like Tampa had any recent success, so the change he made for the team is astonishing.

To answer your question, who should be the MVP? My vote would not be a QB, despite the award being 99% QB. I have to go with Derrick Henry here. From a statistical standpoint, he led the league in running statistics, and he also brings the most value for his team’s success. You take Henry out, and Tennessee has no offense.

Sorry Biz, I meant to quote R3P0
But this is why I initially asked the question because, like you, I am a bit tired of QB's always winning but its a passing league now and if anything they can always give OFPOY to someone like Henry. I don't disagree with you about either him or Brady but also have no problem with Rodgers winning it last year.

Yeah that def needs to improve before we consider him a top tier QB.

A better defense would improve that record significantly.

Good luck getting one of those when you're getting paid $40m+ a season.

CBS Sports: Chicago Bears could soon be for sale: Owners having internal discussions about maybe selling team, per report

According to Jim O'Donnell of the Daily Herald in Chicago, there could be a sale coming in the near future and that's because there's some "internal strife going on among family members to sell ... now."

The principal owner of the team is 98-year-old Virginia Halas McCaskey, who is the daughter of Bears founder George Halas. The NFL legend ran the team until his death in 1983 and at that point, Virginia took over as the head of the franchise.

The team has a board of directors made up of eight individuals and currently, five of those eight are members of the McCaskey family.

At this point, selling the team would basically serve two purposes. First, it would allow the McCaskey family to cash-in on their investment. The Bears are worth an estimated $3.5 billion and if that's what they end up selling for, it would create a huge profit for the family. To put the team's current value in perspective, just consider this: George Halas only paid $100 for the team in 1920.

By selling, it would also potentially put the Bears in better shape for the future. Soldier Field is in serious need of a facelift, but that's not going to be easy to pull off due to the high cost that would come with trying to renovate the stadium. If Soldier Field can't be updated, there's a chance the Bears could move outside of Chicago to Arlington Park, but that would only happen if the team can get a new stadium built there. Whether they fix Soldier Field or build a new stadium, it's not going to be cheap and bringing in a deep-pocketed owner would help the cause.

Seahawks resigned the best punter in the league Michael Dickson to a 4 year 16 million dollar deal. Worth every penny. #ForTheBrand

Let's all cross our fingers for Rodgers to no show the mandatory stuff starting on Tuesday. It's good for my fellow Wisconsinites to sweat it out a bit more.

And turning down $33m and demanding top tier QB money despite not being a top tier QB.

You reap what you sow.

ESPN is saying a trade is in the works to move Julio Jones to the Titans for a 2nd and 5th or a 2nd and a swap of other picks.

Titans fans must be excited for the upcoming season.

Excited and I hope he helps us a lot.
I was already happy I got those tickets for the Titans game at SoFi this year, but this brings it to another level.

Oh... and I agree with Biz that my man Henry should’ve won MVP. We fell apart when he didn’t produce for us.
