Brady, Murray, Manning, not Carson

[desertdawg]

Leaders midway through the season on the MVP vote. I know he was injured, and I know he plays for the Cardinals but come on man!

We won two games with Drew Stanton. Including a huge win over our nemesis the Niners. That hurts his MVP chances for sure.

The others you mention are having better years.

I can't really argue with it. No one on the Cardinals is MVP worthy. A lot of that is due to potential MVPs getting hurt and missing time. Other factors is it seems its a different player stepping up and making a difference in a game from week to week. The closest player we have that could even sniff an MVP consideration is Foote as he has been the most consistent and when was the last time an ILB won a MVP award?

And the missed time kinda screws him on the MVP part, since we won and all, but if Palmer keeps his picks down and we continue to win I can see him sneaking up on this list. He wasn't even mentioned.

 

[BigRedRage]

hes only played 5 games and should not be in MVP discussions yet.

 

[desertdawg]

Sissyboy style, who will make their way up the list first? Palmer or Ellington?

Yup. I know that Carson threw 3 TDs Sunday, but Ben Roethlisberger has thrown 4 or 5 in each of the last two games.

Andre Ellington has a better case to make than Carson Palmer does as MVP of his own team, much less the league.

The only relevant passing categories that Palmer is even in the Top 10 in are passer rating (10th) and yards per game (T-8th and more than 50 fewer YPG than the leader, Andrew Luck).

Ben broke the NFL record with 12 tds in 2 games, 6/6. Amazing how well the Steelers offense is clicking.

and he's having a good season, but he's not playing out of this world, leading a dominant offense.

we're much more a team that's all about the sum of it's parts over one player.

And that's completely ignoring that not one of his 5 games was even close to an MVP performance.

Good Point.

we dont have any elite performances right now but we are good team,with just few weakness
we are solid in every phases.
even if we miss a great pass rusher we have good and intelligent linebackers.

just take a look at this video

Senior passed the management responsibilities to Junior, who has done a credible job so far. His choices for coaching staff stand out to me as the big reason for the turn around.

 

[TRW]

Carson is playing well so far but not MVP level. I'm OK with him continuing to play well, the Cards going 14-2 and his not even sniffing the MVP award

Go Cards!

 

[BigRedRage]

MVP team. No MVP players.

 

[vince56]

Dan Williams. But it will never happen.

Dan Williams. But it will never happen.

no one who plays less than 50% of his units snaps should ever be an mvp.

 

[JCSunsfan]

OROY and DROY candidates are on this team though in John Brown and Deone.

JB is special to us but he is nowhere near the OROY at this point.

It's like people don't watch or follow the NFL outside of the Cards.

 

[football karma]

if you like squads that play as a team, you have to love this year's Cards

forget MVP: can you even name a all pro player? Calais Campbell is as close as i can come. Bethel or Cantanzaro on special teams. Thats it


think about that. Usually the teams with the best records put 2,3,4 players on all pro first or second teams. The Cards might end up with the best record in the NFC and have no all pro players. Stunning.

 

[LDL]

Nor should he be.

 

[Jim Otis]

It is said ---- A picture is worth a thousand MVP awards ----- I'm talking about a picture of Carson (com Feb.) hoisting that Big Trophy overhead . MVP Award , give it to one of the aforementioned players , all will be well that ends well !!!!!!

 

[DoTheDew]

We don't have a league MVP on this team and that is a good thing. Teams like Denver, NE and Dallas are toast if Manning, Brady or Murray go down. On the other hand, we've already proven that anyone can step up for us and we can still win.
