In Antwort auf:Brady is runaway choice in voting for NFL MVP award NEW YORK (AP) — Add Most Valuable Player to all the other accolades Tom Brady has been collecting.
The New England Patriots' record-setting quarterback drew all but one vote Saturday in romping to The Associated Press 2007 NFL MVP award in the same manner his team romped through its schedule, going 16-0. On the way to the first unbeaten regular season since Miami went 14-0 in 1972, Brady put on a performance for the ages.
The eight-year veteran who already has won three Super Bowls helped the Patriots tear through the record books by throwing for 50 touchdowns. He beat Peyton Manning's league mark by one, and also threw 23 of those TD passes to Randy Moss, which lifted the receiver past Jerry Rice's record of 22.
New England scored 589 points, another record, as was the Patriots' 75 touchdowns. Brady led the NFL with a 117.2 passer rating — no, not another record, but close to Manning's 121.1 in 2004. Only one full-time AFC starter, Jacksonville's David Garrard, had fewer than Brady's eight interceptions. And Brady threw 253 more passes than Garrard.
Brady also was tops with a 68.9 completion percentage, and his 4,806 yards were 383 more than runner-up Drew Brees of New Orleans.
Meine lieber Mavs, Brady wird DER Quarterback der NFL-History.
Noch 2 Super Bowls (realistisch sicherlich drin) und er dürfte über allen anderen thronen. Zu dem wird der kleine Tony Romo sein Leben lang aufschauen müssen ...
Braucht man nicht mehr lange zu warten: Laut Madden ist Brady schon jetzt der größte Quarterback aller Zeiten. Und offiziell dann nach seinem 4. Super Bowl Sieg am 3. Februar 2008.
Habe auch keine Ahnung wie die ausgerechnet auf Brady als MVP gekommen sind. Da hätte man auch jeden x-beliebig anderen nehmen können, naja vielleicht nächstes Jahr.
Aber Comeback Player of the Year muss Greg Ellis gewinnen, nicht Randy Moss. Jemand der nur spielt wenn er dazu Lust hat verdient so einen Award nicht.
