Panthers Regular Season MVP...

I think that Williams, Peppers, or Delhomme all make strong cases. The point for me would be which one of the 3 could we have done without and still be close to where we are. Could Stewart have come in if Williams were hurt and made up the difference? Could our linemen have made up for Peppers if he wasn't here. Could Moore or McCown have come in and replaced Jake.

Who is the biggest contributor to turning around last year's 7-9 and this year's 11-4?

Using that logic you would go with Peppers or Delhomme who were non existent last year and both game changers this year.

On the other hand Wiliiams is having the best year of any running back in our franchise history.

Tough choice and several are surely deserving.

Yes he has. MVP is the most valuable player, not the best player.

Deangelo is great, but also has a solid backup. Jake is just good, but there would be a larger dropoff than with Deangelo.

I tend to think as you do. Scary I know! But to me MVP is who is the most irreplaceable guy. In that scenario it would be Jake or Peppers both of whom we couldn't do without on their side of the ball.

That's a valid point, however we are a running team. The most important cog in a running team is the running back. I think Stewart probably would have stepped in and done a good job, but you can't argue with Deangelo's accomplishments thus far this season.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
