Last chance to sway MVP voters

The most used argument will be that Rogers was such the MVP that he didn't need to play today.........

Yeah well Matt Flynn, the backup QB, set a team record with 480 yards 4 TD's. This proves that Rodgers is not the MVP!! Could Chase Daniel put up those stats?? I doubt it.

Drew Brees is the MVP hands down!!

WHO DAT!!

Good point. I think Flynn made himself a lot of cash with todays game. He'll start somewhere next year.

Maybe for the Buccaneers? He's a lot better than Freeman ever thought about being...

If Daniels can't match Flynn's performance, then it proves that Flynn is a better QB than Daniels. Not that Brees is a better QB than Rodgers.

we never get to see what Chase is made of, he comes in and hands off and wastes clock.

You must have totally missed the point. The point was that GB's offense is just as good without Rodgers. Backup QB playing against a hungry Lions team trying to get the number 5 seed and he shred there defense up. He also managed to break a team record that Rodgers hadn't even done.

Drew's role in N.O. is greater than Rodgers. I would venture to say we would be the Colts this year if we didn't have Drew. Can you say that after seeing Flynn's performance today?

All of this = Drew Brees MVP!

SCREW the league MVP let the dnacer have it.

I want to see Drew with a 2nd SUPER BOWL MVP!!

Matt Flynn will be starting for someone next year.

OldMaid 01-01-2012 09:13 PM

Brees is MVP to us Saints' fans, trophy and title or not.
That is fine.
Rodgers is getting this .
So be it.
We just want the Saints to win all of the last few games.
That's all.
Right.

I thought he played well in preseason. Not outstanding, but certainly adequate.

Taken literally, you do take into account how good the backup is when you determine MVP - but in practice, they don't. It goes to the best player.

And it's true Rodgers hasn't thrown those numbers in a game, but part of that is because he didn't have to. Last week against Chicago, he had 5 TDs (don't know how many yards) in three quarters, but he didn't play in the fourth because the game was won. If it had been 35-35 instead of 35-10, he'd have kept throwing and no doubt racking up the records.
