ESPN.com - NFL - Record-setting LT wins MVP award by landslide

The guy is on his way to Canton.

No surprise, Brees tailed off a bit at the end and that killed his chances.

Did anyone read Peter King's argument that Brees should win the mvp over LT? It was silly. Hopefully people just start tuning him out. Anyhow LT should be the face of the NFL. He is the perfect running back.

46 of the 50 number one votes were for lt. Not even close.

We were lucky enough to witness one of the great seasons in NFL history. I'm hoping he adds another trophy to his collection by the end of the season.

It was incredible, but what's with the last sentence of the article?

He joins Brown (1957 and '65), Simpson (1973) and Payton (1977) among brilliant running backs to take the honor.

I don't disagree, but it's kind of an odd non-statistic to throw in there.

I agree, i would like the Chargers to win the SB the most out of all the teams that are in there, LDT really deserves it.

I would love a New Orleans, SD superbowl - lots of good stuff in that one.

gibbs4life · 01-04-2007, 03:25 PM

man this is a shocker,just kidding tomlinson is the real deal..

i wouldn,t mind a SD vs NO superbowl.

mike340 · 01-04-2007, 07:32 PM

And to think that if they had handled their offseason properly, the first 2 votegetters would have been from SD. (In addition to the possible defensive player of the year.)
I wouldn't mind if SD wins it, but I don't want Schottenheimer to win it after what he did to the Redskins. (Of course I can't have both...) I would love it if the Saints won. It would also make the Redskins' effort against them look that much better.

Defensewins · 01-04-2007, 07:43 PM

What he DID to the Redskins? Wasn't he fired by Snyder? What exactly did he do to the Skins?

skinsfanthru&thru · 01-04-2007, 08:08 PM

not a shocker but I was kinda suprised Pennington won Comeback player of the year over Brees.

Brees had a great 2005, Pennington only played in three games that year.

I agree 100%. However, if Brees would have broken Marino's single-season passing yards record(5084 yds.), there would have been co-mvps.

true but he was almost left for dead after his shoulder injury and had an absolutely incredible year.
