without a doubt, wasnt the flashiest player stat wise,but he put in the performances every single game. excellent against run and if he can improve his pass rush he will be a real pain in the ass!

what do ye think of Kuechley gettin DPOY personally i think there is a about 5 or 6 players more deserving than him

Itssoeasy

Your 2014 Hall of Fame class: Michael Strahan, Derrick Brooks, Walter Jones, Aeneas Williams, Andre Reed, Ray Guy, Claude Humphrey.

Boards went a bit crazy on me there....the DPOTY, harsh on Mathis not to get it considering the year he had as the Colts number 1 pass rusher getting all the other teams attention!

You could have gone for Sherman, Thomas, Quinn, Mathis, Bowman or Kuechly but to be honest Kuechly would be my sixth choice out of those.

I'd throw Watt and Revis into the mix as well but players on a loosing team dont stand much of a chance

Paully D

JJ Watt was the best defensive player in the league despite the Texans awful season. Just proves that if your team is poor you're unlikely to get deserved recognition.

Kuechly wasn't even the best MLB in the league, that was Bowman.

Andy Reid should have been coach of the year too, IMO.

So Strahan is in the HOF, Sheldon is DROY, and Warren Sapp is still a bankrupt moron. Yeah, all is right in the world today.

Warren Sapp is a really unlikable person.

Kuechly got it because of that 24 tackle game, I would guess.

Obviously he was quality, bit I think the posts above are spot on. 5-6 guys more deserving, really.

Spot on. I mean that performance was impressive but yeah it was late in the season thing so it was people's minds.

Is he that unlikable ? His a football life episode cast him in a very good way. He didn't try to hide anything and I gained a respect for him after it.

Yes, he goes around calling people 'retards', doesn't give a sh1t about his kids and tries to cause trouble and controversy every time he gets near a mic. He was a heck of an NFL player but he is an awful person.

idk Belichick or Chip Kellly for me.

Delighted to see Ray Guy in. Punting deserved the recognition in the hall. No Marvin is a massive wtf moment though, he's arguably the best receiver of all time not named Jerry Rice.

Peyton won opoy and mvp, not unprecedented, but shows what a great season he had.
Missed out on unanimous mvp by 1 vote from Jim Miller who voted for Brady.
Seems a bit silly, the pats overcame a lot, but it certainly wasn't all Brady.

Only a rubbish sideshow compared to tonight though

How dare Miller for going and voting for Brady, jaysus I mean the cheek of it all. So Brady remains the only unanimous MVP in history and who gives a fúck? There's nothing creditable about the award or the process, because it's nothing more than a meaningless popularity competition.

I agree. Manning not being a unanimous choice is a joke.
