At least they included him against the other 2, to me that's showing a lot.

You've have to be lying if you claimed that Brady had an MVP shot this yr against those other 2.
I wouldnt say clear cut at all. If you have the ability to not be a prisoner of the moment, and look at where you are playing (dome vs out doors) who you are playing with, and who you play against you'd see Brady is just about number 1.

Take in the fact that regardless of what we are told, the MVP is a team award. If Brady had even and average D, the pats would be 15-0 in all likelyhood and Rodgers and Brees would be afterthoughts, even if Brady had the exact same stats as he has at 12-3

just sayin.

This isn't really a surprise. Brady's relatively poor run after in midseason doomed him. Records don't matter. Stats don't matter. What matters is the mindset that takes hold. Brady's having an "off year", whether he is having an off year or not.

Who's talking about Brady having an 'off' year? I haven't heard anybody say that. It's not his best season, it might not even be in the top 3, but he's playing better than Manning did in 3 of his MVP years, for example.

When he was tossing his INTs (Buf through NYG), it was being noted. I'm not even saying it was being fairly noted, because expecting Brady to repeat his INT performance from last year was unreasonable (Heck, if he goes without throwing a pick next week, this will be the second fewest in a full season for him). My point is that the notion got burned into the collective psyche. When you combine that with him winning the award last year and people wanting someone new to win, it's not surprising to me that Brady's way back in the pack.

the clear cut Most Valueable Player (MVP) is Peyton Manning. Without him in the line-up the colts have only won 2 games. He is missed for sure and the moxt valueable

Hey! There are plenty of Pats fans here in CT. Just a weird mix. The closer to NYC you get, the more Giants/Jets fans.
