The NFL’s unlikeliest MVP… and why it will never happen again

[@pavarottiaardvark3431]

Crossing my fingers for a Long Snapper winning MVP

[@baconlight8430]

All long snappers basically play for the league minimum or a little more. They’re valuable enough to warrant a roster spot, but not much more.

[@uncreative5766]

​@@baconlight8430You should Google Trey Junken and the Giants. Having a decent long snapper is as critical as a good quarterback.

[@TheBigRedOutlaw]

@@baconlight8430im betting he knows that

[@MadCow999]

@@baconlight8430 How valuable is a long snapper? Imagine your team is about to kick the Super Bowl winning field goal with no time left - and the snap goes over the holder's head.

Punters should start wearing MVP chains

[@topshottahak2320]

We need a QB award akin to the Cy Young for mlb

[@jekanyika]

I agree

[@3hotboi]

Its so wierd why do I like this sport so much I'm not even American

[@insanetrickshots1]

nice

[@Ong.s_Jukebox]

Same. Do you know there was a manga or japanese comic about american football called Eyeshield 21? It's a freaking good read if you haven't tried it.

[@FriendlyNeighborhoodLemur]

I'm American and I don't even know why I like it

[@TeguhNugrahaPratama]

​@@Ong.s_Jukebox I started watching NFL because of Eyeshield 21, but NFL is a too pass happy league compared to what showed on Eyeshield 21.

[@Gallalad1]

MVP is just QB of the year sadly. There's been years where the QB just isnt the most valuable player on the field (CMC last year for the 49ers and Saquon Barkley for the Eagles this year) but the RB and defensive players will always be snubbed. They should either not let QBs have MVP and make a dedicated QB of the year award or make offensive player of the year an award the QB cant win so at least then we know the actual best offensive player every year

[@uncreative5766]

In the same way people say Man United not participating in the 1999/2000 FA Cup "killed" the FA Cup, JJ Watt not winning MVP that year ruined the MVP Award for me. In the last decade, the NFL has increasingly become a passing league, and the heavy bias towards quarterbacks makes it almost farcical.

[@klicclak]

so you agree that the meta favors QBs? Then i guess it makes sense why they win it every time

[@beneasler8868]

Wish the NHL had this kind of common sense when voting on their MVP. It almost always goes to the best or most productive forward instead of the player who actually is the most valuable to their team

[@hrishikeshnambiar2449]

could you make one video on cricket like the evolution of tactics or technique kind of vid?

[@-youngish]

Saquon might win it this year if he breaks Dickerson’s record.

[@nsd_respect]

Saquon will be Offensive POTY. He’s obviously great but he isn’t the most valuable player on his team. Philly can still have success without him.

[@jonathanoneill9200]

Offence wins fans, but defence wins championships.

[@JCR12_]

3:11 Sorry to bring it up but there’s an error here. ‘First defensive player to win MVP since 1986 with the award going to Green Bay Packers Quarter Back Aaron Rodgers?’ Lawrence Taylor won that year.

[@johnthompson457]

“With the award instead going to…” the jj watt year went to Aaron Rodgers rather than a defensive player since LT in 86.

[@angelrobles7201]

Commas, man! Commas! "...first defensive player to win MVP since 1986 _comma_ with the award going to Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers..." Two separate clauses in one sentence.

[@JCR12_]

@@angelrobles7201 ahhhh bloody commas, thanks man!

[@exactinmidget92]

im going to guess that the winner was some position that no one care about like kicker, long snapper or the guy that holds the ball for the kicker.

[@tlawal7]

Just redefine the award so other players can win

[@benedictjephcote6815]

Jackson DeVille for MVP

[@nostalgiakid100]

Calling it now it’s mark moseley

[@nostalgiakid100]

Nailed it

[@12thMandalorian]

Lamar Jackson deserves it this season

[@nsd_respect]

8 is him.
