Chris,
I disagree with you on that assessment.
While I think that Penny will be fantastic here, he would not have to be in order to get ROY.
If he turns our run game even average, he is going to get accolades for being the reason why. Remember our run game was almost non-existent last year.
For the same reason that a coach gets accolades for turning a 2 win season into a 7 win season, Penny will get a lot of credit for even pretty good production considering how bad our run game was. It is the difference in production that is going to get him a lot of credit.
If another player puts together better numbers that are still close to his numbers here, Penny would get the nod just because of how bad the run game was last year.
Not in Seattle, in Dallas maybe or even Los Angeles, not here, we seen Wags get snubbed for DROY already, with better numbers. Schneider snubbed EOTY, Carroll COTY when he turned us around and was brutalizing the league. They are already bashing us, I expect accolades for Guice out of the gate, the fact nobody really even mentioned Penny during the draft is another indicator..
Not right, not fair but what you deal with as a Seahawks fan.
