i really think the rookie of the year should have gotten it. atlanta is completely turned around from what they were a year ago, and i think their QB is the main reason why. but who can argue with peyton really?

Not to take anything away from Matt Ryan, but Michael Turner has been instrumental in the turn around too. I think he was 2nd in the leauge in yards and TD's. He's the one who opened up the field for Matt Ryan.

I'd have voted for Pennington but have no problem with Manning winning it.

Pennington finishes in a tie for 2nd in the MVP vote but doesnt make the pro bowl?

Has there ever been a Pro Bowl QB until this year that hasn't thrown more TDs than INTs?

Couldnt agree more. If anyone deserves MVP consideration from that team it's Burner Turner. You are correct, he was 2nd in the league in rushing and TD's.

Coach of the Year could go in many directions as well. This wasnt the year of the run away, clear cut winner in the awards categories, IMO.

I think it's a 2 horse race between, Smith and Sparano.

With Harbaugh being the darkhorse. But your right, it's essentially a match race. I'd have to give the slightest of nods to Smith.

Bill Parcells should be eligible along with Sparano.

He took the coaches he knew were capable and some
nice players from Dallas. Basically raped Jerry Jones.
