Brady strengthened his MVP case prior to even taking a snap today with all the other candidates having played pretty meh on Sunday. Then he comes out and does what he just did.
Up against the #1 defense in the league, no Gronk, no Amendola, effortlessly throws for 400+ yards and 3TDs.
...has to be the clear cut favourite now at this point. It would be cool if there could be an exception and the Dallas oline would be eligible as I believe they are truly deserving of it though it won't happen. But knowing the media votes, they'll still be bias against Brady for not having played the first 4 games even though that has nothing to do with MVP, especially in this case taking all things (other candidates) into consideration.
Imo, Brady wins it hands down if the Pats end up with the best record in the NFL. If not the entire league but best record in the AFC, still think he'd be the fav tho there'd be an off chance he still doesn't get it. Other than that, I don't think the media would vote him in.
