There are the odds for MVP 2022. The favorite just like
his team. There it is. Little more pressure for Josh Allen
Chris. Let's do a draft
of the guys
most likely to win MVP for the first time in their careers.
And I have to remember who hasn't hasn't won the MVP.
I had to die at it open. I don't want we know Aaron. Rodgers is
not going to be in this draft. Some of the others, always. Tom
Brady knows. Right. Who do you got? Who's your
first pick? I'm going with Josh, Alan? I mean
there's a shot. Yeah. Well I'm gonna take that for sure.
I'm in you know he's been on the cusp of being in the MVP
the last two years. I honestly think it should have been
closer the last two
years with what he's done.
And and yeah I mean
Josh Allen mean Again, a guy that can dissect you and make
all the right decisions in the pocket.
Oh wait, the play broke down,
you know, him and Mahomes the best in the business at,
okay. Now we to play backyard football
and then as I say, but Josh, Alvin to
other than Lamar Jackson,
I don't know. Between Kyle and Marie, Jalen hurts. Josh Allen
is, he's the best running quarterback and football right
there. So
I will take him plus. I think their team is going to be good
too. So we know that's a big big factor in this.
Typically the MVP is the quarterback of one of the teams
that end up being the number one seed,
right? That's how it goes. And so if the bills are the one
seed in the AFC Josh how and he's got a big enough name,
he can be that guy.
So Guided by my own Twisted logic. I'm gonna go Matthew
Stafford, you know, there's only five guys in the NFL who
have won MVP awards, Five, Guys.
Currently under contract, with MVPs Stafford, has
Rams end up number one seed, Stafford kind of gets
the coronation for what he did last year. Remember this is all
subjective. It's voted upon and I could see Stafford getting
a lot of votes just as kind of career appreciation
won. The Superbowl wasn't the MVP of the Super Bowl
if the Rams of the one, see it? I could see Stafford being
the MVP. Chris. Yeah, I wrote them down 100%. I mean last year
again,
you know, they did some special things he threw for 41,
touchdown passes and believe that was only second to d,
right? So you know your to you you'd think he'd be more
comfortable. I'm not mad at you there for that pic. That's
certainly where my
mind went, Joe Burrows into be my next one, you know, just
because again we think the team is going to be good. He should
be better protected and we know they got
weapons Galore to throw the ball to,
to where I wouldn't be shocked. If it was,
you know, again last year, we had our rare gear were
Jonesboro. The fact that he threw the ball is aggressively.
As he did down the field and still through 47. Percent that
to me is rare combination when that happens
and he's rare that way. So
I certainly could see him throwing for
forty nine, hundred yards and forty five touchdowns. I don't
think that's a crazy thought with the big play Bangles and
Joe burrow in the weapons. He's got to disposal
next one for me, even though it's going to be a tall order
for them to be. The one see just in Herbert is so damn
good. Maybe he could put up the kind of numbers and the kind of
dazzling moments that would overcome
Not winning the division or not being the one seed, or maybe
they will win the division, who knows. But Herbert just has so
much Buzz around him and so much of a sense that he just
getting started and the potential is unlimited. As he
enters year three,
he's a guy that needs to be taken seriously to Chris. Yeah,
I mean it was to me, it was between burrow and Herbert.
You're right there were 5,000 yards last year. So
and then it's again, it's a team that we think is going to
be better.
Better record. Maybe doesn't throw over 5,000 yards. More
efficient more touchdown passes and he's he's that type of
talent, he's a superstar.
So I'm with you there in that picture, and I was just
thinking like, wait, go ahead, what?
No, I was going to say hold your thought were going to
commercial. We're doing the third round after this. But
yeah, one more to button up that point, go ahead. No,
I just when you said the five current MVPs, I was thinking.
And then I it came to my head, so it's Brady Rogers Mahomes,
it's Matt, Ryan Ryan. And Lamar. Right? That would be
the five. Yes. Okay. I just want to have that in my own brain.
Thank would be 6 if Cam Newton was on the roster,
but he's not. All right, let's go ahead and break.
One more pick each extra time
to make your final selection
will do that when PFT live continues right after this.
All right, there we are so far first time, MVP candidates for
2022, weird to see Stafford on there. But Matthew Stafford,
never been there before, even comeback player of the year,
but not an MVP. Chris, who do you have in round 3? Yeah,
I mean you
know the annoying thing about this award is that you don't
even think about other position. So I gotta just say
that flat out, it's a little Annoying. It is the MVP for
the Super Bowl,
the MVP for, you know, the regular seasons become
quarterback, unless it's a quarterback. That's not very
popular, like Matthew Stafford. Then they find a Give it to
somebody else
but it's just annoying.
So annoying. I do it is as we've gotten to a point where
it's like quarterback quarterback, quarterback
quarterback and I go. Well there's two other guys I'd like
to pick here but I'm not because I'm going to stay with
the quarterback because it's inevitable
and I will go with Dak Prescott here.
I just, you know,
to follow the guidelines of a team that maybe is surprisingly
good or I still think a playoff caliber ish type of football
team. I could see Stafford putting. I mean, Prescott he
putting up huge numbers.
And I don't have much faith in their run game and I could see
the game laying out to where he's got a throw for 5,000
yards and close to 45 50. Touchdowns,
are you ready? Yeah. Mature Biscay
blow the horn.
He's going to go to the cousins or Justin Jefferson. I'm going,
Justin Jefferson. I'm still waiting for you to blow
the horn.
I think there's never been a receiver. I don't think I know
there's never been a receiver to win the NFL MVP award. The
time is now number 18 for the Vikings. Is going to explode
this year,
in the Kevin O'Connell offense, is going to play the Cooper cup
role to to Heights that cup didn't last year all due
respect to Cooper cup.
I think Justin Jefferson going to be
well, I would have made it my first pick. I got to come up
with a third one.
Just in Jefferson's in the conversation
because it won't be Kirk Cousins.
No, because that'll be one where if it is good, nobody
will give it to him. Like if his stats are amazing and they
had a supply, they'd go, well, he's just not cool enough so we
won't give it to him that.
Will be the one time the quarterback doesn't work.
You're right. But I hear you. I like your love there. I was
thinking Jamar Chase of G but Debo Samuel to
safe travels, Chris Wilson? I think somebody's Mama, see you
next week. Peace.
