that is such weak sauce really tho....and totally uncool....that line of thinking drives me nuts....
along the same lines.... Patrick Mahomes only wins AFC offensive player of the week twice (weeks 1 and 2) and then they start realizing they don't want to give it to him almost every week and he doesn't win it again when he had weeks where he dominated whoever they gave it....he probably should have won it AT LEAST 4-5 more times.....not that it really makes a difference, but still similar thought process....

Man, I hate being this guy, because it makes me sound like i hate Mahomes, when I really don't, but I don't think this is accurate at all. Mahomes strength was more about consistency than high-end single game performance. I think 2 wins is about what he deserved, and week 1 wouldn't have been one of those weeks.

If you take the time to back and look at who won it when he didn’t and compare the stats/impact on the game....you might be right.....it might not be accurate....4-5 might actually be light....
and now I’m curious....who should have got it week one?...

About 2/3 of the way through the season, I thought Brees had the edge for MVP. At the end I was solidly Mahomes.

It's definitely a lifetime achievement thing if Brees beats out Mahomes. (Which he won't.)

I'd actually make a case for Tyreek Hill. He had 2/3rds of the teams receiving yards(169) and half the receiving TD's(2) on 8 targets(7 caught) in addition to having a return TD, though that may not count toward offensive stats. Still that big of a % of the production makes me lean toward a WR over his QB.
There is also a case to be made for (ugh) Joe Flacco. He had 236 yards, 3 TD's and 0 INT's in a 47-3 massacre over Buffalo. Flacco accumulated almost all of that in the 1st half, and was actually pulled at the end of the 3rd quarter, factoring that in, maybe he should be the pick?
I had Mahomes as the best AFC QB in weeks 2(Pitt) and 9(Clev) and other than that week 11 game against the Rams, he didn't have any bad weeks.
Then again, high-end performance may not always be a great judge of seasonal value. I mean, I'd argue after 2 weeks, the NFL MVP was easily Ryan Fitzpatrick, who was benched a week and a half later.

You mean, managing to take a team that was 13-3 in 2017 and go 11-5 with them in 2018?
What an accomplishment.
How many big games did Patrick Mahomes win?
Drew Brees watching another SB.
Tom Brady will be the most important player this season, everyone else will be forgotten.
As far as .....only the reg season counts.......that is ridiculous.

Whether you think it's ridiculous or not, those are the rules; it's a regular-season award just like all the others.
And when your QB failed to make the top 10 in any QB stat, maybe there's something other than the QB contributing to wins.

The bottom line in every NFL season is winning that SB, stats, reg season wins pale in comparison. When the smoke clears there stands Tom Brady on top the NFL world......again.
When we look back on the 2018season years from now, it will be Tom Brady who stands out, his story will be THE story for 2018.
I don't care about rules. I go with impact.

I don't lose at gambling, been playing with house money for over a decade now.
I obviously (like others) reject the idea of ignoring the playoffs when it comes to the MVP.

The MVP has nothing to do with the playoffs. Not only do you start ridiculous threads, your overall posting is ridiculous.
I'm not alone on thinking the MVP should take into account the playoffs.That has been talked about before.
Go tell them it;s ridiculous.

It's MVP of the regular season. They have an MVP of the playoffs. The Super Bowl MVP.

Was Eli the MVP of the season in 2007 and 2011? Was he definitely the MVP of the playoffs? Seems pretty simple.
Nobody is confused or thinking it's complex, ok?
Simple/hard.......a total non factor.
It's a matter of timing and input.
