Flynn's 480 yards and 6 TDs really makes me lean towards Brees.
Him or Peyton Manning.
can we please stop with the Peyton Manning for MVP talk??? he didn't play a snap. he gets ZERO consideration.
Every QB benefits from his "system". If they didn't they wouldn't be part of this discussion.

Yeah but the question is how much. I doubt you could plug Matt Flynn into Indy's system and not see a dropoff, even if only for 1 game. However plug Matt Flynn into Green Bay's system for 1 game and he sets the team record for TDs in a game.
Exactly...remember Scott Mitchell? He played very well stepping in for an injured Dan Marino, but flamed out in another system not like the one he was used to in Miami. Just like other positions in football some many QBs don't play as well in systems that they are not used to. If it was as simple as plugging a skilled guy into any system there wouldn't be guys like Tim Couch, Ryan Leaf, or others who have not panned out.
But the discussion is not about whether Matt Flynn should be the MVP. It's about Rodgers, Brees, Brady, and Peyton Manning. If anyone can step in and put up numbers like Rodgers did, then how is he the MVP if Matt Flynn can do the same thing? Meanwhile once Manning went out, the Colts went to sh1t. That proves that he is more valuable to his team than Rodgers is.
What it proves is Green Bay constructed their team much better than Indy did. I'm not saying Manning isn't dog gone good, but he didn't PLAY in 2011 so he therefore is not the Most Valuable Player for 2011. Now if you want to talk about the Most Valuable Inactive Player then he wins in a landslide. The 2011 NFL MVIA award goes to Peyton Manning.
MVIA?
No. Free speech rules the day. Vote for anyone you wish, and don't whine because someone disagreed.can we please stop with the Peyton Manning for MVP talk??? he didn't play a snap. he gets ZERO consideration.
