A real fan would not believe such a thing.
MVP is a beauty pageant. No different than Miss America. A popularity contest.
So what we are talking about is writing history. Now Russell has been able to write his own history and it is represented by the jewelry he wears, but MVP is about fans and media writing history, not the player.
What true fan would exclude Russell Wilson from football history?
Answer: A Troll.

No matter, he'll get that accolade to add to his collection down the road.

Whether OP is serious or trolling you cannot be serious with this post... Is there no room for objective analysis anymore? As a fan of the Seahawks we have to believe russell should be MVP simply because he is a seahawk? What a load of rubbish. I can think for myself on who should win mvp I encourage every other 12th man to do the same.

Getting into the Hall of Fame requires credentials. The best credentials are
A) Super Bowl appearances (Player has control)
B) MVP trophies (media and fans have control)
C) All-pro (media and fans have control)
B) Pro Bowls (both media, fans and peers have control)
Russell has done his part and continues to do his part. If we do our part then he gets a bust in Canton.
So I ask again, what true fan would exclude him from MVP consideration?

If you weren't trolling then I apologize for insinuating. Not everyone is a stat/numbers guy and enjoys the game in different ways.

Seriously though, the Seahawks have been the best team over the last 4 years going to 2, maybe 4 Super Bowls and have won 0 coach of the year awards, 0 Front Office of the Year awards, 0 MVPs, 0 Offensive Player of the Year. The only accolade they've really received is the Defensive Player of the Year for Sherman.
Of course Wilson doesn't belong in the discussion because that's just the way it is.
