Man ... who the hell do you think is doing all the voting and owns the league and teams... there is 1* minority owner lol. Yes being white in the NFL is so hard.

LOL @ all the "racism" takes.

CMC got downgraded because he piled up stats on a dumpster fire team. These awards almost always go to players on playoff teams. That is literally it. Had we been a playoff team and the Saints not been, mush-mouthed Thomas fans would have been shouting about CMC being ranked higher.

McCaffrey:

2,392 total yards

19 total touchdowns

115 first downs

81.7% catch rate

 

Thomas:

1,716 total yards

9 total touchdowns

91 first downs

80.5% catch rate

 

 

Where does Thomas beat McCaffrey other than receptions (which mean nothing)? How in the world could these people vote for Thomas over McCaffrey? It’s unjustifiable. You could argue Lamar for OPOY, sure. But Thomas over McCaffrey just makes no sense. 

Two complaints with these awards is how heavily favored QB’s are for MVP and how much stock is put into guys on teams who have winning records. Sure, the Panthers sucked but Christian single handedly carried us all year.

Carried us to 5 wins.

no one should be surprised by this. Also cmac had 3 chances at the one yard line to win or tie for overtime and he got stuffed.

Cmc is a beast and I was chanting mvp during that 5-3 stretch. But you’re not gonna win an award being the focal point on one of the worst teams in the league stats be damned. It’s crazy to me how people are getting so upset by this.

I’m not particularly “upset.” I just recognize a flawed system. If MVP literally stands for “most valuable player” to a team, I challenge anyone to think of a better name than CMC who fits that bill outside the QB position.

So it’s an individual award with the qualifier that you must have a decent team around you, something you as a player have zero control over?

This is why I’ve never liked this aspect of how they select the winner. It makes absolutely zero sense. If it is supposed to an I dividual award, then factors beyond the individual’s control should be irrelevant. I’m not terribly upset about it, I just think since it’s being discussed that these unspoken qualifier criteria are dumb.

It makes about as much sense as saying you can only win the Oscar for Best Actor or Best Actress If the film you won for was also nominated for Best Sound Editing.

We know why some are upset. We know.

Because CMC gets a ton of garbage time yards and stats. Team getting blown out majority of games and he is racking up stats is not smiled upon nor is it efficient 

You’re no different than an irrational Cam hater.

    • If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2024 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade. 
    • Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.  
    • I have zero issues with this.
