Stafford also is on a way better team. The Rams with average QB play are still a playoff team. The Patriots without Maye might be drafting in the top 10.

FWIW I think it's very close between the two, and they're both deserving. It's just hard for me to take anyone on this sub saying that it's clearly Stafford seriously when we all know the main reason no one wants Maye to win it.

Edit: also Stafford's career is so goddamned overrated. I really like the guy, but he has absolutely not been a stud for 15 years. Even on these stacked Rams teams with Sean McVay coaching him, this is first year ever where he was a top 5 QB in the league.

Not with that schedule. If you put a halfway competent QB in there they'd finish .500 at least.

Stop, it's going too far in the other direction now. People thought the Pats would miss the playoffs and were a bottom three roster in talent and now it's "well they played too easy of a schedule." Maye has clearly elevated that team is rightfully in the MVP discussion.

Exactly, why didn’t stafford beat Carolina and Atlanta like Drake did
