Drew Brees for MVP?
Count me in on the belief that Brady is gonna get it again this year. Wilson has played like he deserves it so far this year but the Hawks’ D is worse than ours and JT made a video today detailing how much Russ struggled against the Cards’ amoeba at the end of the game, so if a team like say the Bills is able to grab an early lead and pin their ears back, Russ could end up throwing a real doozy out there. Meanwhile, the media has glommed hardcore onto the “Year of Tampa/LA, Year of GOATs” narrative with the ‘Ning winning the Cup and the Rays going to the WS and LeBron putting the Lakers on his back in the bubble, and they’re gonna ride that narrative “healing the nation from COVID the way that the Yankees/D-Backs WS and the Patriots did after 9-11.”
That having been said, I think there’s a non-zero possibility of Drew winning a “Susan Lucci” MVP if there’s a huge clump of QBs at the top of the stats with little separation between them, but we would at minimum have to finish first in the NFC and beat the Bucs by two games in the South, and either be first in the whole league or hope that a team like the Steelers or Titans finish first in the AFC and we are tied or ahead of Kansas City. IOW, an inside straight.
