Hilarious looking at Ryan's "MVP season" in 2016...
- 9th in completions (behind Brees, Flacco, Cousins, Rodgers, Bradford, Stafford, Wentz, and Manning)
- 3rd in completion % (behind Bradford and Brees)
- 2nd in passing yards (behind Brees)
- 2nd in passing TD's (behind Rodgers)
- 1st in QB rating
- 1st in yard/attempt
- t-7th in fewest INT's for QB's that started at least 10 games (of 29 QB's and was tied for the most of any other MVP votees with Rodgers)
- 3rd in QB record at 11-5 (Prescott went 13-3 and Carr went 12-3)
- 1 4th quarter comeback, 2 game winning drives, 4-3 record vs. teams with a winning record
Ryan should never have won MVP for the sole fact that they went 11-5 that year. They weren't even the #1 seed in the NFC and were BARELY even the #2 seed because it took the Seahawks (who the Falcons lost to the week before) tying with the Cardinals in a 6-6 barn burner. Then the Cowboys choke in the playoffs (as usual) for them to land *** first into home field advantage before they tore down the Georgia Dump and their playoff run had an equally catastrophic collapse as well.
Ryan had a good year, but if Brees' 2009 or 2011 seasons weren't MVP seasons then THAT damn sure ain't either.
