I often can't stand Warner and his opinions, but in this video he is incredibly on point.  Says Cam probably won't win MVP because the MVP award has begun to just be about stats rather than the definition of the words.  Says if the award goes to the person who is most valuable to their team, it should be Cam.

Why can't Cam play better/be more fortunate? And conversely, why can't Brady play worse/be less fortunate (or Brady's run game score more TD's in the upcoming games), and Cam wins MVP??

Plus, if the Panthers are 14-2 or better, that will be hard to avoid.

This things not written in stone guys, Kurt Warner.

We'll see?

The MVP award is combination of stats/wins/popularity.

If the award had anything to do with the actual term "Most Valuable Player" it would go to Cam. The Patriots would easily be maybe 6-2/7-1 right now with Garapolo.

We would be talking about who we're taking in the top 5 of the draft.

I truly believe the Patriots would still be 8-0 right now with Garapolo. Brady's good but Dion Lewis, Gronk and Edelman (before Lewis went down) are all all in the top 7 or 8 of YAC. Most of Brady's stats are them making plays in the open field, on plays designed to get them into the open space. Brady's been a total game manager this year. Of course he's been amazing throwing only 2 INT so far and 1 of them which was a Edelman drop turned into a pick 6 (sound familiar, Cam?) and the other I didn't see, but he hasn't even been playing at an MVP level considering how their offense is run. Garapolo has a similar skill set from what I've seen and could easily execute in that offense. Cam wouldn't since that's not his style which is completely fine. But he is literally carrying our offense. Stew has been solid and Olsen has been great but Cam is making Ted fuging Ginn look like a Pro Bowler. Without him DA could probably drum up 3-4 wins but they'd be against those lesser teams. No way we beat any of the last 4 teams we played without Cam. Same goes for Dalton as for Brady. Most QBs with that skill set could run that offense easily. Especially looking at those WRs, RBs, TE, and O-line. All elite. Cam should be the only MVP candidate right now. Maybe Carson Palmer. And if Romo were healthy he'd probably be in that discussion since you can clearly see how much he means to that sh*tty team.

Both Cam and Brady are very valuable to their respective teams.  Its nearly impossible to say which one is more valuable. 


Fwiw, I think there should be two separate awards, best qb and mvp who is not a qb.   


 

There are two awards. Offensive Player of the Year and Most Valuable Player.

I blame the stat based league on fantasy football. 

I blame systematic people that need to have everything categorized, color coded, and compressed into loose analogies so that their tiny minds can choose what they think is the right answer.

 

Its the reason we see a billion Michael Jordan comparisons when in reality . . there can be only one.

Do you really want to talk value?  Then money has to be in the equation.  Who's giving us the biggest bang for the buck?  It's gotta be Norman for the PANTHERS.

 

You have to consider the guys that are getting paid should be expected to perform at that level.  It's the "Normans" on every team that are the most valuable.  Next year when he gets paid and his stats could be even better but that doesn't mean he is more valuable.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
