This is why I think we need a split award. MLB has the Cy Young for the best pitcher, and the MVP for every other position. You can win both in the same year as a pitcher, but you have to hit an even higher standard for that. So whether it’s Most Outstanding Quarterback or “winning the Montana Award” or whatever, you get a designated QB award and open up MVP to WRs, RBs, DBs, Dlinemen, hell maybe even an olineman if somebody has that crazy a season. And doing it like that wouldn’t even force you to get rid of OPotY or DPotY either, so why not?

I’m cool w/it as a longtime osu beaver fan. I had season tickets til I was 18, doubt I missed more than 2 maybe 3 home games Derek played from 01-04.

He was exciting in college with a big arm & big stats late in his career, and he played with Steven Jackson 01-03.

So yeah, I’ll just remember that Derek Anderson

Rename the MVP to the Peyton Manning Most Valuable Quarterback Award, and make the SBMVP the Tom Brady SBMVP.

The Marino award or The Marino.

[–] 4evaN_Always_ImHere@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lol The Marino is dope. It’ll never happen but it should.

They should have a massive fan poll lasting months trying to get tens of millions of votes and see who comes out as the top 2 QB’s.

#1. Gets RSMVP name, while #2 gets SBMVP award.

If they do, I bet they go with the “Starr QB Award”. keeps the Packers motif with the Lombardi, and I think it’s ultimately the catchiest.

NFL, pay me. 😂

The difference is that in baseball the most valuable hitter is usually more valuable than the best pitcher. In football it’s the opposite, the best quarterback will the most valuable player at minimum 95% of the time. Why not just give MVP to the player that is actually the most valuable, and and OPOY has to go to a non-QB?

This is correct. And then have them retroactively award past winners so we get a fresh heap of arguable content
