Aaron Rodgers’s performance against the Lions cemented himself as the leading candidate for MVP. He is having a much better season than Mahomes, statistically. He has the least amount of interceptions out of full-time starters. The only QB’s who have less INT this season are Tua Tagovalioa, Taysom Hill, Drew Brees, Joe Flacco, and Dwayne Haskins. He has the most touchdowns as a QB with 39 passing touchdowns (he also has two rushing touchdowns). The only players (who aren’t Saints QBs) with a higher completion percentage than Aaron Rodgers are Russell Wilson and Teddy Bridgewater. He also has the highest QBRTG in the NFL with 119.7; the player in second place is Patrick Mahomes with 112.3.
Aaron Rodgers’s victory over the Lions clinched the NFC North for the Packers, and they are currently the number 1 seed in the NFC.
The only player that should be in the race for MVP with Rodgers is Derrick Henry. Derrick Henry has 1532 yards (1st in NFL) and 14 Touchdowns (tied for 1st in NFL). You cannot say that another QB deserves this award over Rodgers because his numbers show he is the most effective and best asset to his team. Let’s not let the media trick us into thinking someone else deserves MVP. Aaron Rodgers is my MVP. He should be your MVP too.
The Packers final 3 games will be victories for Aaron Rodgers.
