MVP so far: My MVP of the NFL after Week 2 is easy: Mike Bell, (injured his knee in the game against the Eagles) running back of the Saints. Bell has 229 yards rushing in two games, but more than the yards he gains, his power and toughness allow the other Saints offensive players to be even better. These 2009 Saints are for real.

He said it on Around the League on the Saints segment also.

LOL. I do not concur.

Mike Bell over Adrian Peterson, Chris Johnson, Frank Gore, and of course the one and only DREW BREES?

Granted, I will say Bell is probably our MVP after Brees.

Sounds like this guy is drinking black & gold cool-aid. As cool as it sounds A. Peterson + Chris Johnson have played better. Drew Brees is on MVP pace i thinks! But Mike Bell is playin out of his mind!!!! GEAUX SAINTS

It's pretty cool to have two legit MVP contenders on the same team....

We don't have any T.O on this team..everybody is unselfishly doing their part and doing it well. I love it!

Brees and our passing game for Bell and the RBs

Bell and other RBs for Brees and our passing game

Bush for everybody


we don't need any one person getting 1500 + yards or 15+ TD

I do think that the way Mike Bell is playing makes this offense unstoppable, even against some of the better defenses out there. Last year, I couldn't say that about our offense.

mike bell is not an mvp candidate, yet. especially if he misses time.

MB is a top RB

Maybe it is not so much accummulative yardage that one is considered an MVP, but more about importance and impact one has on his team winning. Having a more effective running game has liberated the QB to be able to make those amazing throws, and vise versa, having a QB liberates the RB. With a new found running game this team is on a wholly new elevated level. MB (with supporting cast, oline) has completed this offense. With the direction of this offense now....He's a true candidate or an MVP....his effectiveness against a stout defense like Philly shows his talent. Surely comments about his achieved success against lesser talents shall now cease, he will run against any team in this league. I can boldly say he is a top teir back....he is as talented as any back in this league.
