Lol. Like two weeks ago Bayless was crowing that Tom Brady should be the MVP of the league.
His only goal is to stir shit. I don't even think the man knows what the **** he even believes anymore. |

Simple fact is that if the season ends right now, the Saints finished with a better record and Brees had a better year. This would be the exact same situation we saw play out in 2011 with Aaron Rodgers finishing with the best passer rating in NFL history while Brees also had a historically great season including more TDs, a better completion %, and way more passing yards than Rodgers. But his team was 13-3 vs Rodgers's 15-1, and Rodgers had a better passer rating. Brees won offensive player of the year, while Mahomes would likely win it this year with Brees winning MVP. That being said, people need to stop moving goalposts on this award. Brees should have won in 2009. #1 seed, more TDs, better completion %, fewer INTs, and much better passer rating than Peyton, but Peyton still won it because people thought the Saints were going to be one and done in the playoffs. If Brees wins, his critics will say he only won because it's a lifetime achievement award, which is complete BS. Mahomes is having an all time great season, but Brees is having the most efficient season ever for a QB to this point. Plus his team has the best record. |

The stats everyone keeps spouting off as reasons why he should win are pretty pointless. Id much rather have the QB with more TDs and yards over the QB with the high completion rate and lack of interceptions. Mahomes has nearly 500 more yards than Brees and Brees has completed more passes than Mahomes and is still not even close in yards or TDs. So how is that more valuable?

2011 I could see going either way. Brees had only 1 more td pass, but 8 more INTs. Brees had alot more yards, but he also threw the ball 155 more times than Rodgers. Honestly I could see it going either way. Last edited by dlphg9; 11-22-2018 at 11:40 PM.. |

Thing driving me nuts is people bringing up the turnovers on MNF this week. Because an entire season of work will come down to the one game that had multiple turnovers yet you only lost by 3 points while scoring 44 on offense.
He couldn't do anything about the strip sack fumbles because that should really fall on the line for getting him crushed. One INT was hit in the air on release. |

It's just easier for the Media to lump him into the "it's Brett Favre all over again" narrative.

The league doesn't want to give this award to a n00b, just like it didn't want its LA investment team getting its ass kicked in prime time.
