That’s my dinosaur-loving, poetry/writing DPOY.
NFL
A place for NFL news, game highlights and everything that excites you about American Football.
You forgot “smashing-with-helmet” and “lying-about-racism”
MVP
Myles is an absolute force. He's one of three or four defensive ends that literally needs to be accounted for or schemed around every single play. Truly a gamewrecker.
He’s got Zion Williamson levels of explosiveness and plays more aggressive than just about anyone.
Myles Garret is a freak of nature athlete. Monster out there, and I’m a browns hater
Who's the others on your list? Cuz imo it's watt and myles in a tier of their own followed by guys like Nick bosa and Micah parsons and other elite pass rushers.
Watt and Myles are in the will single handedly take over a game and win it for their team.
Other elite players make big plays and contribute to a win but myles and watt score and do everything to win. Sometimes being the only bright spot at all.
I think Crosby deserves to be considered in that group.
If he doesn’t win a DPOY in his career I will be devastated. It’s crazy the impact he has on a game
Holy shit that’s a crazy stat tbh
he won’t win MVP and given the value of QB he should not, but he’s been the best player in the league so far.
No one would say MG is not great, but it still feels like he's underrated (if only bc he's on a team that doesn't get as much press as others). Like it's already been said, (assuming most double teams are lost) he's winning about half his one on one match ups. I feel like even if you adjusted for era averages (ie: bc OL are currently in a league wide slump the last decade), these past few years would still be an all-time level run by him.
He my DPOY but also shoutout Maxx Crosby
AFC North has come great pass rushers. Garrett is a stud. Watt is our best player. Hendrickson with the Bengals can wreck on offense as well.
Such a crazy and insane correlation and it's a million times more impressive.
Garrett is the most impactful defender in the league, by far. Nothing is as exemplary as the game against the Colts:
- 2 sacks
- Both of which resulted in a TD, one immediately
- Blocked FG
That's essentially 17 points in difference coming from one defensive player, ignoring any impact he had on the rest of the game.
