JJ Watt I can see but if we're considering Andrew Luck we might as well consider every other QB who didn't play last year as well.

Why wouldn't we consider Andrew Luck? Or any other quarterback who didn't play last year?

I don’t think he’s talking about any of those teams deserving what they get. It sounded like he just meant the NFL is wild because of how crazy/unpredictable it is. 

The Colts going 1-5 but now in position to compete in the postseason, the Ravens exceeding preseason expectations (with LJ starting now), the Steelers being near-locks every year for the playoffs but currently looking from the outside, the Raiders beating the Steelers - all examples of things people (or at least, him) didn’t really expect.

yeah this

it happens every year

in fact

last year it was the ravens who got dudded by the unpredictability, when they had to sit on the sidelines in january while the darn worse (but deserving) bills got to have a go

just love the nfl

Something that's not really being talked about is the fact that Aaron Donald is three sacks away from tying the NFL all-time sack record.  Absolutely amazing considering the defense hasn't been very good all year along, so that makes it even more easier/likely for Donald to be doubled and triple teamed.  Just unreal.

he missed the first game of the year too didn’t he? absolutely unreal from the big unit

That's EXACTLY what we're doing with COMEBACK PLAYER OF THE YEAR

Luck has been the best of that bunch, ergo he's taking the lead. Considering that many thought his career was over following his shoulder injury, it's easy to give him bonus points towards this award.

C'mon man, you're smarter than this.

Nah. He played in all the games, but it took him a few games to get up to speed because he held out. However, it's worth noting that the refs stole a sack from Donald in Week 1. They called him for a roughing the passer personal foul on a sack, a penalty that they stopped calling a few weeks into the season (after the NFL said cut it out). So if the NFL hadn't botched things early in the year, Donald would actually be at 20.5 sacks right now.

What an accomplishment tbh (assuming you're talking about QB's only?). Watt and Carson have been the best players of that group of players who didn't play last year IMO

Uh....Carson played most of last year.

Luck is easily the frontrunner what are you inhaling.

Luck is having a much better year for a QB than Carson is for a RB.

Even if they were having equivalent years, a QB is much more valuable than a RB. That's simply the reality of the situation. It's why a RB has to do something insane to win MVP.
