Luck should be MVP

He mentioned Luck.  

I think it is a lock.   No chance at MVP though.  Brees would have to fall of allot. 

  Agree with this totally! Right now.

    This league changes from week to week. Who’s to say, God forbid, that any of the candidates will stay healthy all year?

     I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a qb as consistently accurate as Brees (I believe he’s the all-time leader is accuracy). 

    And I no longer buy that Luck has no one around him, if you consider everyone that is part of the team, including the Owner, GM, Coaches, Players, Trainers, etc. are capable of doing their part to ensure success.

    Barring any injuries or catastrophic regressions, Brees should take the MVP and Luck the CPOY but there’s 7 weeks left and he could be in the discussion.

     Here’s an interesting link discussing this very thing:

Remember Luck’s Rookie year, when he took a 1 win team, to 11 wins. Ya’ll must’ve forgot!!

Luck is in the conversation, but thats it. Breezus is better this year with a much better team. Luck stands out as the best player on a not so good team (We're 5-5, lets be real). Breezus stands out head and shoulders above a team with a LOT of talent. I think Mahomes, Breezus, and Donald are in front of him.

Offensive Player of the Year: Brees > Mahomes/Luck
Defensive Player of the Year: Donald/Mack > All Else
Defensive Rookie of the Year: Leonard/LVE/Chubb
Offensive Rookie of the Year: Barkley

Comback: Luck/Watt
MVP: Breezus > All Others

Good list but I'd add Goff with Mahomes/Luck for offensive player of the year.. He has great talent around him but just can't ignore the QB on of the top offenses in the game.

 

Donald > Mack > anyone else. Donald leads the league in sacks despite playing almost exclusively on the interior. He has almost twice as many sacks as the next interior player. And it's not just sacks, he's an absolute terror on every play. Mack also missed 2 games.

 

I'd also add Ward for DROY.. I'd give Leonard edge for that award right now.

    • I think even though the sample size was small last season it gave people a false sense of where he is. But we also can’t ignore thst maybe the regression is just because of the lack of off season work. If it’s just the lack of offseason work it should correct itself fairly quickly. We should def him settle in by game 6 or 7.
    • It just seems like people have sold themselves the idea he was going to come out great this season which I think is and was completely unreasonable.   I hope to see some improvement by the end of the season, but I really don't expect a whole lot until sometime next season. AR has got so much catching up to do.   I mean, there's no doubt AR's struggles are affecting MPJ, but MPJ has never been a great separater and seeing a defender right besides MPJ is probably stopping AR from throwing his way at this point.   Also, to be clear, I'm not saying AR will DEFINITELY be great, but I do think we DEFINITELY don't know yet and people need to be a lot more patient with him.
    • They both couldn’t throw or work on footwork. To ignore this could be a possibility with AR is naive. Let’s see where he is by game 7. Especially when it looks like he went backwards  from last season.
    • Other than the fact that Luck was a proven NFL QB in his prime and that his shoulder rehab lasted 3x as long.   
    • His lack of experience was a well-known risk in drafting him and it's a big reason why some were skeptical (including me). On the flip side, it sort of seemed like people disregarded his lack of experience then in favor of things like potential and upside. But now he's struggling and it's showing. If anything, it's validated those initial concerns.   I tend to think WR drops following a QB from college to the NFL says as much about the QB as it does the pass catchers. But they need to do better. I think it will take a combination of improvements from both AR and the pass catchers.   Not sure if something is up with MPJ, but some "regression" this year was very predictable. At one point, I actually thought he might leave in FA when faced with prospect of re-signing with a run-first team and a young QB who is still learning how to throw short and intermediate passes (the area he operates). But he stayed...and I am glad he did. But if it continues, there are going to be a lot of people blaming MPJ, which is pretty ridiculous, when you think about just 6 months ago, people were talking about how great of a contract it was and that MPJ was a legit WR1 with AR.
