What I want to know is why was he even out at that hour?  These guys are suppose to be proffesionals and they continue to put themselves in bad situations.  You have pratice the next day...and your preparing for a game that Sunday.  You have better things to do then be out at a club at that time in the morning.

I would go with Dawkins in this one.  Not to take anything away from Williams...who is great in his own way.  But with age also comes experience.  Williams is still at a point in his career where 50% of the time he sees something and reacts.  Where as Dawkins has seen just about everything the league...so he can break something down and position himself before the play even happens.  Someday Williams will be there as well...but not yet.

Plus I want to put in a little plug for Rodney Harrison...I know he's hurt...but man can he play.

I don't think so...the Giants have more problems then just missing Strahan.  They will most likely be in the hunt until the very end...but will fall just short.

I know that Brady had a very sucky receiving corps but still I think Rivers is better.dallas_cowboys3
And that is obviously backed up by the stats... Brady has more yards and more touchdowns with a much worse receiving corps...and oh yeah...Rivers just happens to have one of the greatest running backs of all time having one of the greatest rushing seasons of all time.

Think about the possibilities with having both Schaub and Vick on the field at the same time.  And with all the injuries with the runningback position the Falcons have it would really help out the team.

The meaning of the Most Valuable Player Award is highly debatable.  I take into consideration what the award was designed to be for, which is to recognize the single best player of the year.  MVP is a misnomer, I believe.  There is no way to determine who is more important to their team and if it truly meant "valuable", then salary should come into play. 

That being said, there is an awful MVP favoritsm towards QBs.  So if it's a tie between a RB and a QB, I'll take the RB just for fairness' sake.  Tomlinson>Brees

Plus Tomlinson was my preseason pick for MVP(if it was a RB), so I don't want to be wrong. :P  Both are very worthy of the award though.

I would have to disagree. I don't believe the award is for the best player...becuase the best player does not always win the award. The award is for the player who is the most valuable to his team, not in a dollar sense, but in an overall performance/leadership sense. And in this case...as much as I love LT, I would have to go with Brees. With Brees Deuce has become a legit running back. He has taken two rookies in Colsten and Bush and a make shift O-line and engineered the leagues best offense. If you take Brees away from the Saints there in no chance and they are half of the offense that they are now. Which is also why more QBs win the award over RBs. Most teams stack at least a solid backup running back versus a solid backup quarterback. So if a starting runningback goes down they have something there. That is not the case with QBs. So my vote goes to Brees.
