I can't believe he got it over McCourty. The guy hasn't started a game yet. He has three games in a row that he has gotten an INT, but he had as many as McCourty had in November. Haden has 8 less tackles and 2 more pass defenses.
Haden has been pretty good as a rookie, but McCourty shut down Megatron when he was on him. McCourty has been playing every down except one since day one. McCourty is taking on other teams' primary WRs far more than Haden. I think McCourty was jobbed. Not taking anything away from Haden, but McCourty is just better at this point. If Haden was playing as well as McCourty, he would be starting.
For that matter, I think Brady deserved the AFC offensive player of the month more than Matt Cassel too. But you can make a strong argument for Cassel over Brady.
