 A big discussion in the NFL community is who is going to walk away with that NFL MVP award. Will it be Aaron Rodgers or Patrick Mahomes? Let's make a case for each one individually. Aaron Rodgers, 3600 yards passing, 39 passing touchdowns, which by the way that 39 passing touchdowns is more than how many punts J.K. Scott has punted for the Green Bay Packers. So the Packers have more passing touchdowns than J.K. Scott has punts. Thank you Bennett Nygaard for that little nugget. Four interceptions, 69.6% of his passes completed, 119.7 quarterback rating. That's on pace for 4500 yards passing and 48 passing touchdowns to 5 interceptions. Just process that for a bit. 48 passing touchdowns to 5 interceptions. That's better than an 8 to 1 touchdown to interception ratio. That's incredible. But let's make the case for Patrick Mahomes. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. 4200 yards passing, 33 passing touchdowns, 5 interceptions, 68, not so nice. 68.4% of his passes completed, 112.3 quarterback rating. That's on pace for 5100 yards passing, 41 touchdowns, 6 interceptions. So looking at the stats alone, who's the favorite? I mean it doesn't take a smart man to realize that right now statistically it's Aaron Rodgers. Now I'm not saying he's a favorite right now for MVP, but I'm saying statistically he's having a better season than Patrick Mahomes. That's just how it is. But both are having really good seasons with their respective teams. But I believe it should be personally Aaron Rodgers should walk away with that NFL MVP award. I mean statistically we already just read off the stats to you guys. That's why it just makes sense for Aaron Rodgers to win the award. But a lot of people are going to make the argument, well hey it's the most valuable player. It's about who is the most valuable to their team. That's who should win the NFL MVP. The only thing about that argument about who is the most valuable is that there is no level of consistency with that argument. What I mean by that is an MVP award should be an individual performance based award. So if you are the best performing player you deserve to be the MVP of the league. That's just how it is and that's how it should be. But a lot of people get it twisted and confused about who is the most valuable. If you take this player away from this team they're not going to be that good. First off to argue that you don't really know that unless that player got hurt earlier in the season then you saw that the team suffered without them. You can't really make a judgment call on is this team really that good without them. You just can. I mean yes in your mind you can say yes like obviously like look how good Patrick Mahomes is. If you took him away from the Chiefs you're not going to be as good with whoever the backup quarterback is. Yes I understand what you're saying but like factually and statistically there's no way of determining that. There's just no evidence so that gets thrown out the window just because there's no evidence. So you have to look at who is the best performing and you have to measure that by their statistics. Because there has to be consistency. A lot of people vote on who the most valuable player is based off of who is the most valuable. Not off of who had the most stats. Because in 2014 speaking of Aaron Rodgers if you remember when Aaron Rodgers won the MVP award over JJ Watt which was the biggest upset in MVP and NFL MVP history it should have been JJ Watt. People gave him the award and people voted for him because number one quarterback bias because people believe that the MVP is just based off of who the best quarterback is. It shouldn't be like that but that's just how it is nowadays. And two they chose Rodgers because he was the most valuable over JJ Watt who had a historic year. I mean 20 and a half sacks 78 tackles for a defensive end is pretty freaking good. Five touchdowns three of them were on offense as a defensive end and he didn't want MVP because they decided to go with who was the most valuable. Let me counter that by asking you this question. If you want to pick who the most valuable player is over who the statistically who the best player is shouldn't it be someone like Russell Wilson. I mean if you take Russell Wilson away from the Seattle Seahawks they're not going to be as good with Geno Smith. I mean we've seen this in the last I guess a couple years ago before they had DK Metcalf before they had a solid run game before Tyler Lockett was on the up and coming. Russell Wilson did it all by himself. He was the man he was the leading guy with 34 passing touchdowns with nothing around him. Wasn't he the most valuable yet he didn't earn a single MVP votes. So he was the most valuable he had great stats and he led his team to a winning record and made the postseason yet he didn't get a single MVP vote. You see where I'm getting at there's just too many inconsistencies with MVP voting. Do you vote for the most valuable like you did with Aaron Rodgers over JJ Watt who had the better stats or did you go with someone who has better stats over someone like Russell Wilson who was the most valuable to their team that season. I personally believe that MVP is an individual award who bought out individually take team success away and you have to award it to the guy who had the best statistics the best player the best performances and that in my eyes it's got to be Aaron Rodgers statistically looking at it Aaron Rodgers over Patrick Mahomes Patrick Mahomes is very valuable to his team I understand but if this is an individual award it's got to be Aaron Rodgers.
