Do you still think Peyton Manning is the MVP?

[Snowglobe]

Yes? No?

[tonychen]

Yes, why not? He is still the only reason his team was given this kind of expectation. If you blame him for his team's loss, it only shows how valuable he is to this team.

[BrentMc11]

Yes it was between he and Adrian Peterson.  I wish AP would have gotten the record.  One of the two will then get Comeback Player of the Year....

[indy1888]

This weekend didn't change anything either way. I felt it should be AP.

[jvan1973]

I think AD wins it.. He put the Vikings on his back and carried them into the playoffs

[TAPLOOK]

No but the press has always favored him.

[Moose Of Woe]

No, this season I'd say AP since he basically dragged the dead weight known as the Vikings to the playoffs.

 

Manning is a close second, though.

[Superman]

I was split between Manning and AP before, and still am. The playoff loss doesn't change anything.

[Dustin]

Should be AP.

[BPM_Colt]

My vote would go to AP even before the playoff game

[ViriLudant]

Brady still had a better season than Manning.

AD should win it, though .

[Nobody]

Brady still had a better season than Manning.

AD should win it, though .

1. No he didn't.

2. That isn't what the MVP is.

[Coltsman1788]

Put me in the Adrian Peterson camp.  Dude was a beast all year and is the only reason the Vikes made the post season.  Peyton is my Comeback Player of the Year. 

[braveheartcolt]

Hey Snowglobe, what is all this new found facination with Peyton? Why are you not posting articles about your team's current play-off run? I'm confused...

[DILLIGAFER]

He just wants to stir up crap.. whats new.. instead of talking Patriots he bags on Manning..

[Susie Q]

Brady still had a better season than Manning.

AD should win it, though .

Did you read the poll?   Brady wasn't in it.

Yes Peyton had a better season record than Brady.

[SilentHill]

This weekend didn't change anything either way. I felt it should be AP.

 

Agreed.

[ViriLudant]

Did you read the poll? Brady wasn't in it.

Yes Peyton had a better season record than Brady.

Brady was more responsible for his team's success than Peyton was for his.

Peyton had the #2 defense in the NFL. Brady's was around 14-16.

Patriots were 7th in the league with RBs averaging 4.2 yards per carry. The Broncos were 23 in the league with 3.8 yards per carry. The Patriots led the league with 25 rush TDs. The Broncos were 13th with 7 rush TDs. 

 

I can cherry pick stats too.

Thanks Dustin.

[shakedownstreet]

brady probably deserves it more than peyton, but patriot fans are blind to why brady gets overlooked 

[Dustin]

Yeah to be honest I kind of like Brady, but the way Pats fans and the media shove him down my throat make me root against him. Sort of like Tebow.

[Synthetic]

I never thought he was the MVP to begin with.

[MAC]

Not this again.

 

Does the fact that the playoffs aren't considered with regards to the MVP, and that in fact the votes have most likely already been cast play into your thinking at all? This is utterly pointless.

[southwest1]

Who knows what the media Associated Press is gonna do.. MVP=Adrian Peterson. Comeback Player of the Year=Peyton Manning. 

 

AP deserves some love & MVP is the only way he's gonna get any hardware. In reality, #18 will get both MVP & CBPOTY. 

[GoColts8818]

Doesn't matter the award is voted on before the playoffs start.

[ViriLudant]

Yeah to be honest I kind of like Brady, but the way Pats fans and the media shove him down my throat make me root against him. Sort of like Tebow.

Wait, wait, wait.

BRADY gets shoved down our throats, and not Peyton?!?!?!

Are you out of your mind?!

ESPN kisses Peyton's rear end 24/7, and only changed their tune after his 8th one-and-done.

Brady was never even mentioned in the MVP race. It was all AD or Peyton.

Please. The media has gone out of its way to ignore what Brady had to do this season.

[OldManP]

Yes? No?

Never was, IMO. 

[hawkeyes]

IF voting was in before that game , yes ... if not then he blew it!

ESPN kisses Peyton's rear end 24/7, and only changed their tune after his 8th one-and-done.

ROFL!!! ESPBerman has ALWAYS been Pats nation!

[ViriLudant]

Oh, please. Patriot fans universally loathe ESPN, with its biased towards other teams like the NY Jets and, this season, the Broncos.

[Dustin]

So you're not even going to respond to my other point?

[coltfaninnewyork]

It is based on regular season ,so then peyton is your MVP.

[GoPats]

Oh, please. Patriot fans universally loathe ESPN, with its biased towards other teams like the NY Jets and, this season, the Broncos.

 

Brady and Manning get equal amounts of... ahem... you-know-what-washing from the Four Letter Network. Just my opinion.

[ViriLudant]

Then why was Peyton pushed forward as the MVP of choice, despite the fact that he was less responsible for carrying his team than AD or Brady?

[jvan1973]

Peyton had more wins.. By pats fans logic that equals better.

[GoPats]

Simple. The comeback story. They had an angle, and that's what they do. ESPN is truly a joke anyway, though. I don't know a single person anymore who says, "great network, great programming."

 

I do generally think Brady gets plenty of media love, for the most part. You know how all those guys are. If the Patriots can win next weekend and pull off another SB win, they'll be lining up with buckets of soapy water and some washcloths and pronouncing him the GOAT.

[Thewholefnshow28]

I did not think he was the MVP to begin with and still do not think he was the MVP. AD should get the MVP, but probably will not because the MVP award has turned into the best QB of the season award.

[chad72]

Go Adrian!!!

[braveheartcolt]

Again, Luck should be MVP. 2 wins less than 4 x MVP, 1 win less than 2 x MVP, all with a rag-tag bunch of rookie and 2nd hand scrubs, and lifting them from 2 wins to 11 wins. Oh, sorry, and Reggie. That is the ral story of 2012. Not Peyton, Tom, Adrian or Griffin.

 

And did I say he was a rookie, and the definition of clutch (watch 4:02 - end of Detrion game)? INT's and Passer Ratings mean nothing if you win.

 

Barring that, Peterson.

[shakedownstreet]

i voted yes just to annoy patriot fans
