You had a few chirping about his performance last night as if it was MVP worthy. It wasn't. Not even close. I understand he's a HoF QB, but lets call a spade a spade.

I wouldn't put AD over Manning simply for the fact that the Vikings will most likely miss the playoffs. MVPs are generally not given to guys who miss the playoffs. Can you name me one MVP in the NFL that's won the award and missed the playoffs.


Manning will get it because 1) he was out a year and still beasting 2) He has a better record 3) His has the numbers to back it (better than Tom's)

His season performance has him in the MVP running, not just last night.

Manning has a slightly better QB rating but Brady has more yards, 1 less TD, but 4 less INTs.

They're both going to be in the conversation along with AP let's just say that.

I agree, both should be in the MVP running for the season. Just was hearing too much praise for Tom's work last night when in reality he was a big reason why they lost. (2 turnovers and not great completion %) Disagree with AD unless his team makes the playoffs.


Patriots were a 13-3 team last year. They are a 10-4 team as of now. (same players)

Denver was a 8 win team last year, and now a 11 win team (with 2 games to go). A potential +5 turnaround in the W-L margin by one player alone.



It's not even close...lol I think history has shown on two separate occasions which player means more to a team. Colts are the #1 pick in the draft without Manning, a SB contender with him. A Denver team that barely squeaks into the playoffs without Manning, is contending for home field advantage with Manning.
