Ap Should Not Be Mvp


THE ICEMAN

Recommended Posts

The points are impressive. They are a different team at home. They really thrive in their house. They are less then average on the road though. I pretty much feel the same way about SF, even more so now with so many injuries to their already slow offense.

Seattle's cockiness makes it very easy to dislike them. The last memorable thing Seattle did was beat NOLA as the worst playofff team ever.

What do you think about kaepernick? Personally, I'm leaning toward overrated right now.

I don't think he is going to be that great. I think the dropping of Alex Smith was a pretty stupid move as well.

I think the 9ers are seeing just exactly what it's like trying to win with either an inexperienced QB or a game manager.

Kaepernick seems to have some football immaturity. I saw him pull the ball down and try to run a couple of times Sunday when there was nowhere to run. He relies a lot on his athleticism and arm strength to make plays even when they're not there.

I think he is a little overrated but he is for sure better then Smith. If he had to play them I would WAYYY rather play against Smith.

The 49ers went 6-2 with Alex Smith as a starter, he was owning the Rams defense before being injured something Kaepernick is unable to do. Since Kaepernick has been named the starter the 49ers are 4-2.

During the Patriots game the 49ers had several drives start in Patriots territory and Kaepernick couldn't even get them into field goal range.

Wonder what the league average is? Seems almost like the first round bye has been anything but an advantage for any team lately.

i can t find too many stats but this is what i do see. of course it will depend on good vs bad teams

http://www.thesports...y/nfl-bye-week/

"Over the four most recent seasons (2007-2010), in games where only one team is coming off the bye, the team coming off the bye has a record of 65-54-1 straight up, and 61-44-5 against the spread."

so looks like we are just below league average.

Yep. That's not good. Though we should e encouraged by how we played agains the iggles and their record coming off the bye.

Smith is just crazy limited. He can't throw down field AT ALL, anything longer then 3rd and 5 they don't trust him to throw, and he has awful pocket presence. Only reason his completion % is so high is he refuses to ever throw the ball away, he takes the worst sacks I have ever seen.

I wonder if that is including playoff byes? If its not then by including them in our number would really skew the outcome.

i don t know, most the stuff i saw doing a brief search was more about betting and talked more about covering spreads. eyeballing the number they add up to 120, instead of 128 which would be 32 x 4. so my guess is that only includes reg season and seems to not include 8 games for w/e reason.

AP is, or should be in the top 2. I'm a huge Florida State fan and I was very excited for Ponder to be drafted. It meant his inconsistency and horrible decision making is now someone else's problem. You take AP away and have Gerhart in the backfield the Vikings are battling for the number one pick in the upcoming draft(not too mention the past 2 drafts). AP has carried that team to the playoff picture and will carry them into the playoffs this week. He is by far in the top 2 if not the MVP. The award is the MVP not the MVSP(Most Valuable Stats Player).

Ok so he has a good supporting cast. Brady and Manning do too. plus broncos defense is top 5. SOOO YOUR POINT?

The point? Brady and Manning have developed their supporting cast. Ryan had a great WR when he got here. That wasn't enough, so they got him a great TE and when that wasn't enough, blew 2 drafts on another great WR.

don't know about blowing two drafts. And Decker and Thomas was there last year before Manning got there. They put up respectable numbers with a QB that can't throw

They were there for two seasons. Decker will almost double his best numbers, Thomas almost triple. I'd say that Manning enhanced the talent around him, which is just the point I originally made.

Thomas has serious talent. Talent was never his problem. Route running was. If you want to say Manning made them better I can see that. But not Talent when it comes to Thomas
