MVP – Aaron Rodgers - The best player right now on the best team at the most important position. Just had one of the best games a Quarterback has ever had with 400 yards, 4 tds and 2 running tds. Rodgers also does not have a strong running game to support him so the team must rely on Rodgers’ passing. Rodgers is on pace for 48 tds with 8 ints, 5300 yards which would break Marino’s record and a rating of 124.6 which would pass Manning’s 121.1 rating in 2004, and is about 13 points higher than the great Tom Brady for this season. His 73% completion percentage would also be a record surpassing Brees and Kenny Anderson of 70.6. Rodgers has passed Drew Brees and Phillip Rivers and along with Brady is considered the best Quarterback in the league.
Offensive Player of The Year – Tom Brady(Calvin Jonson close 2nd) – On pace for 6200 yards or more than a thousand better than Marino’s record season. If not for a 4 interception game that led to the Patriots only loss he would be in consideration for MVP but it’s Rodgers turn this year. Brady is also on pace for 52 touchdowns which would surpass his record of 50.
Rookie of The Year – Cam Newton – Quite simply the best season a rookie quarterback has ever had. He throws beautiful deep balls, runs better than just about any quarterback not named Vick and has made Carolina respectable. Newton is a game changer and typically rookie quarterbacks do not have that skill set or moxie yet. Newton is on pace for 5544 which would shatter Marino’s 1984 season. Newton has kept Carolina in games that they would have lost last season. He has also turned Wide Receiver Steve Smith who has been dormant for 2 seasons into one of the league’s best again.
Coach of The Year – Mike Munchak (Jim Harbaugh close 2nd) – A washed up veteran Quarterback that nobody wanted, an underachieving Chris Johnson who had been the focal point and the second best running back in the NFL, a great defense and a very respectable 3-1 record, tied for 1st place in the AFC South. Not to mention a new offensive scheme.
