It was 29-15( maybe 29-16, but something in that immediate area) and they vote at about the same time. I don't know exactly when the MVP vote is, but it's done after the season ends and before the post season starts. So at most it's only a few days apart. So yeah, with that timeline and that difference it's pretty much a spoiler alert for the MVP. I mean, you can play semantics I suppose, but it is as close to a guarantee as it gets.

I would be surprised if more than 5 people vote for anyone other than Ryan, Brady, and A.A. Ron
The only thing that would make it possible is that the 1st Team All Pro Team is usually purely stat based. And they may approach voting for the MVP, especially the V part, differently. Especially since Brady has won as many games as Ryan despite the obvious disadvantage of missing a quarter of the year. So it's possible that some voters approach that vote differently, but with that gap it probably won't be enough.

I'm not saying Ryan won't win; he will in all likelihood. I just don't agree that such a thing is a guarantee, especially when you could have some voters vote for another position. At 29-16, if four voters flipped to Brady and six voted for Zeke instead, Brady would win. It's obviously a long, long shot, and I'd be comfortable betting that it won't happen, but guarantee is a strong word.

I told y'all he would get it since he's the definition of MVP. Cheatriot fans are so angry they will have to find a slightly less pale white person to berate. I wonder if white folks with tans are also segregated in new England or just swarthy people?
