What about DeAngelo? RB could be NFL's MVP

Not a Pro Bowler? No problem. DeAngelo Williams couldn't care less. He's got his eyes on a bigger prize. And while he won't admit it -- he's modest like that -- he should be considered for the NFL's MVP.

You read that correctly. DeAngelo Williams is (and should be considered to be) the NFL MVP.

Williams, who leads all non-kickers in the NFL in scoring (14 rushing touchdowns, 2 receiving touchdowns and a two-point conversion), wasn't named to the NFC's Pro Bowl squad despite being one of the main cogs on one of the best teams in the NFL.

In fact, Williams has five touchdown runs of 30 yards or longer, which matches the highest total in any single season in the last 40 years. Three other players, Barry Sanders, Terrell Davis and Adrian Peterson hold the same record as Williams.

Good read. Sorry if repost.

Williams would never be seriously considered for MVP because he's on the Panthers. I base this on the fact that Steve Smith didn't receive a single vote for MVP in 2005, the year that he had the triple crown of receiving.

Sean Alexander set an NFL record for tds and the seahawks went to the superbowl, he should have been unanimously voted in, not that I know who got however many votes...

I say let anybody who wants to keep overlooking him do just that. Fuel for the fire, SS style. I would hope he's the type of guy who would work hard and push himself whether he gets the accolades or not (and I think he is), but a bigger chip on his shoulder can't hurt.

There are multiple players who get votes for MVP every year, so yes, Smith should've gotten some votes in 2005. By winning the triple crown he was in the elite company of Jerry Rice and Sterling Sharpe.

Kinda crazy that if dwill has one more td run of over 30 yards he would have an nfl rushing record, if he keeps the pace up and has two more excellent games he should by all means be considered for mvp or offensive player of the year. Should have been in the pro bowl but oh well, hopefully he wins one of the two awards and we go on to win the super bowl.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
