Default Re: NFL MVP final round

Yes, he is on pace for 2000 rushing yards and 30 touchdowns. None of the other 2000 yard rushers had close to 30 TDs. Despite his relatively weak opponents and great O-line, which Jack pointed out, he has been more impressive than anyone else this year on the poll with the possible exception of LT.

Fantasy football has severly overinflated the value of touchdowns. Realistically yardage, ypc, etc. are much better indicators of skill. Shaun's 30tds are largely a byproduct of him getting all the red zone carries. IMO no other team in the NFL has such a clear redzone option so consistently so nobody steals his redzone touches.
