Well, Manning led a team with an average defense and no running game on a 9 game winning streak, despite coming off pretty serious knee surgery that kept him out of training camp and had him hobbled the first few weeks of the regular season.
But Manning's stats don't really measure up with Brees this year. Brees was like 15 yards away from breaking the single season passing record. He torches everyone. I think if the Saints hadn't finished last in their division and made the playoffs, Brees would have been MVP.
