I could be wrong but I think it's a regular season award. Votes may already be taken before the playoffs start.

They play in the weakest division and havent really beaten anybody. Ten in a row is impressive but i bet they dont make it to the champ game.
Best three teams they played - NE, Hou, and Atl and they lost all three.
They did beat Cincy n Balt but i still think they are overrated.

Pretty smart of Cobb on this play and I learned something new about the rules today.

no that is correct. ballots will be cast after our game next week. not announced till right before the superbowl though.

SFRedskins. Do you think if Griffin or Wilson threw it 200 more times they would have no more tds and 13 more ints? that's basically what you are saying by emphasizing how many more passes he has thrown. Griffin and Russell both have over 60% completion rates and 6+ yds per attempt, so while they haven't thrown as much, there is no reason to believe they would be as inaccurate as luck has been. I also don't know much about the seahawks receivers but I know that our same group of receivers struggled with other passers.

the thing is I, and most others that I have seen saying luck doesn't deserve it often acknowledge both griffin and wilson do, but luck supporters only grudgingly seem to give credit to the other two, even they don't ever refute the reasons for griffin and wilson are in the running.

I would not be mad if Luck wins it. He plays in a more pass happy aggressive offense than RG3 or Wilson, therefore he will have more turnovers. For the most part he has played up to the hype.

Luck may very well win the award...but I would be surprised if he does seeing as though RG3 has won rookie of the week more than any rookie this season.

Ok, cool. That's a fairer way of doing things. Thanks for the help.

They might also throw more TD's. Remember Luck does not have the luxury of a nice running game like the skins/seahawks and 4 rookie receivers. Give credit where credit is due. Skins and seahawks have experienced receivers.

Luck has the better 1WR than any of those teams though . I agree luck is legit though and he has zero running game so he has to throw that much

Wow -- quick thinking on Cobb's part. Love to see smart players take advantage of rules like that.

So you don't think Garcon is legit or as good as Wayne? $42 million say he is.

Luck has 4183 yards passing 254 rushing, 26 TD's 21 passing 5 rushing 18 INT's 8 fumbles. No one comes close to RGIII 750 rushing yards just like no one comes close to Luck's passing yards. The award will go to whoever takes their team deeper into the playoffs. Could be Wilson.

If you average things out, RGIII would still have less INT's even if he trough twice as many times as he has this season.

Luck deserves all the praise in the world but I'm not gonna say he deserves the award over the other two because his team was bad last year.

A must see by everyone.

I remember Randle El doing that same thing for us a few years ago.
