The dude in in his prime - it's all on him now - is this his MVP year?
Or does Dickson win it?

I like what we have, and where we are going, but in comparison to the weapons a lot of the other MVP candidates have I just don't see Russ being able to put up the eye popping numbers. Not the same amount of weapons around him and not the same number of opportunities.
I would counter that notion with we are a run-oriented offense - and that backfield is the deepest in the league. Carson, Penny, (McKissick and Procise in theory) and Travis Homer who is an absolute beast. There is major speed at WR - and size, too. Then at TE - Dissly was tearing it up before his injury. I think it is an underrated TE group - and the WR corp has a very high ceiling and two big playmakers (DK has to prove himself). Oh, and a loaded, veteran, NASTY o-line. Oh, then you have Penny and Homer out of the backfield - both with excellent hands and speed - and have to be accounted for. So many options here. It's all in theory - but with the competitiveness this team thrives on - it's looking like 2012 to me - except it's the offense, not the defense, that'll be doing damage - and for once - the defense will be rested cause they ain't on the field all day! That should benefit them, too.Michael K. wrote: ↑Mon Aug 05, 2019 3:46 pmI like what we have, and where we are going, but in comparison to the weapons a lot of the other MVP candidates have I just don't see Russ being able to put up the eye popping numbers.

Not saying he doesn't. But I imagine some of the guys playing in more up tempo pass happy offenses are going to put up video game type numbers.

So there's no run first video games?Michael K. wrote: ↑Mon Aug 05, 2019 6:43 pmNot saying he doesn't. But I imagine some of the guys playing in more up tempo pass happy offenses are going to put up video game type numbers.
