Rodgers vs Brees: The Final Debate

Weekly, if not daily, I have been discussing and debating why Aaron Rodgers should be the NFL MVP over Drew Brees. At the end of the day, if the AP gives the MVP to Brees, I will be upset, disappointed, and a little frustrated; but I wouldn’t fault them for giving it to a QB who had one of the greatest seasons of all time.

There is *some* data to back me up: - Last season’s Packers lost in Week 15 to New England 31-27 in a game Matt Flynn had to start due to an Aaron Rodgers concussion. The Packers went on...
