100% agree. That would have been an iconic name frim history that could have gone in the right direction socially. Fail for not having that in this list,  but I'm not surprised coming from that organization given their own problematic history/ownership. I guess Redhogs would be the next best fit? What a step down though from Redtails... a swing and a miss...

What's the Redtails connection?

Danny Parkins -    Hub Arkush has an MVP vote and won't be voting for Aaron Rodgers. "I don't think you can be the biggest jerk in the league and punish your team and your organization and your fanbase the way he did and be the MVP"

  • Nick Wright -    1 of the 50 voters for league MVP flatly says he won’t vote for Rodgers despite the on-field excellence. I fully expect Rodgers to rightfully win the award, but I’m sure Hub isn’t the only voter who feels this way.

So @Norm's real name is Hub.

It’s going to be redhogs… has Red in the name so they can keep that. And because of the hogs… there is a tradition.

I thought Redtails would have been a great option too

I think all signs point to Commanders

Redhogs makes sense as it would tie it to the storied 1980s/early 1990s Super Bowl teams.

Besides being the team in the nations capital honoring the Tuskegee Airmen... nothing much. I guess the Redtails logo could use the classic "R" logo that was used during the George Allen and early Joe Gibbs days..

Okay.....thanks. I'd not thought of the Tuskegee Airmen and cant's say it does much for me, but no matter.

Ross Uglem -  Matt Ryan has a higher passer rating, completion %, a higher TD%, lower INT%, and a better ANY/A than Ben. More MVPs and All Pros as well. He just didn’t play with the Steelers defense for two decades.

Interesting points.......so does that mean Matty Ice is HOF material?

The only reason Taylor would be in the discussion is because of what CIN has achieved this year relative to their past incompetence. Regardless, they're (currently) "only" 10-6 (.625) - while GB is 13-3 (.813).

I think "AR bias" hurts MLF. It's the "Yeah, but you've got the MVP....." thinking.

Ya but let’s not act like Gb wasn’t average or worse with MM. Turning Arod into back to back MVP candidate shouldn’t be detrimental to his resume but a bonus for him. Especially considering this off season.

And he also lost a Super Bowl he was up 28-3…. He will never live that down.
