One MVP voter says Brady was more valuable than Peyton | ProFootballTalk
Cue the dismissive snark from PFT:
Personally I don't think you could really vote against Manning this year. But good to see at least one voter cared to look beyond the stats, even if PFT doesn't.
...the AP gave one of the 50 votes to former Steelers and Bears quarterback Jim Miller, who now works for SiriusXM NFL Radio, and Miller preferred Tom Brady.
“It pains me because Peyton had such a historic season,” Miller told the Post. “He is the offensive player of the year, no question. But having played the position, when I looked at who had the most value to his team, I thought Tom Brady carried that team the same way Adrian Peterson carried Minnesota last year.”
Cue the dismissive snark from PFT:
Brady may have carried his team, but he carried his team to a worse record than Manning’s team, and did so while throwing for 1,134 fewer yards than Manning, and 30 fewer touchdowns than Manning. Miller is entitled to his opinion, but his opinion is wrong.
