The consensus seems to be that Carson Wentz (#1 in passing TDs) and Tom Brady (#1 in passing yards) are leading the MVP race. I am hoping that rushing output does not become lost in the discussion; there is no reason not to include scrimmage yards and TDs. A strong showing by Wilson this Sunday against Wentz could propel him into the conversation.

Edit:
Russell Wilson now leads the NFL in both total yards & TDs (UPDATED)

Total Yardage
#1 Russell Wilson - 3,688 total yards (3,256 passing + 432 rushing)
#2 Tom Brady - 3,656 total yards (3,632 passing + 24 rushing)
#3 Kirk Cousins - 3,440 total yards (3,289 passing + 151 rushing)

Total Touchdowns
T-#1 Russell Wilson - 29 TDs (26 passing + 3 rushing)
T-#1 Carson Wentz - 29 TDs (29 passing + 0 rushing)
#3 Tom Brady - 26 TDs (26 passing + 0 rushing)

MVP! MVP! :2thumbs:

He's got more yards then TB? In an offense that's all about the deep throws? And not WCO like Brady? No way.

He’s got more yard than Brady in an offense geared towards Wilson running for his life and making plays out of nothing.

Pretty damn solid for a guy w/a swiss cheese O-Line and zero running game to help him out. Not that Josea would actually acknowledge how impressive that is.

Watch the oline look good in a few weeks and they'll say it's his supporting cast.

We are too dependent on him and he "almost threw 3 picks" last week. Trade him while the value is high. If we only had that high 1st, we could have had Luck or RG3. :sarcasm_off:

If one listens to the "talking heads" on radio or TV, RW is casually mentioned as a TOP 5 QB....and that begrudgingly.
Fact of the matter, if given their druthers, 75% of the teams would love to have Russ.

I would love it if that happened! It would mean the oline is playing well.

Now lets add in RW is over 80% of our total yards and over 90% of our total Offensive Tds

Actually a deep shot offense has lower percentage throws so I wouldn't be surprised if the WCO gives more yards overall due to high percentage throws with lots of YAC opportunities. Also, Brady has been taking more and more deep shots, especially this year. He's still the MVP IMO, as a pure passer no one is close this year. RW is 2nd. Wentz is vastly overrated due to a very high TD/INT ratio, but he isn't as big a part of his offense as either RW or Brady.

Wentz and Brady wouldn't survive behind the Hawk OL, except Brady would audible out of Bev's plays more and call a more quick pass offense and keep himself and the O alive. Since he's 7 inches taller than Russ and can read the defenses better he'd actually do well in the pocket as short lived as it is.

Was with you till you infamous backhanded stab at Rw and height which once again you cant prove. But hey way to take a stab again. Brady would not last behind our oline or running our offense.
