Not a Pro Bowler but the MVP?

Recommended Posts

Probably not going to happen BUT does anyone think it's possible that Cam finishes in the top 3 in MVP voting after being completely left out of the Pro Bowl? The top candidates for MVP a couple weeks ago were probably Wentz (Torn ACL), ABrown (Out for season), Wilson (Completely embarrassed the last 2 weeks), and Tom Brady who will probably end up winning it this year. After those guys who's left? Maybe Gurley and Bell but it's a strange year with all these injuries. I think we all expect Cam and the Panthers to destroy the Bucs, so if he puts together 2 more good weeks to finish the year, I could easily see him being one of the top MVP candidates.

It's not like it really matters at all, but I find it extremely funny that Cam completely missed the Pro Bowl, and could still end up being one of the top MVP vote getters if he keeps playing the way he is.

The only person mentioning him as a MVP is you

Yeah my point is don’t you think that could change if he has 2 more good weeks to end the season? Comparing his numbers to 2015 is irrelevant because other than Brady and maybe Gurley there really isn’t any strong candidates.

If there were five weeks left, I'd say he'd have a chance to really blow everything up. But not a single person is mentioning Cam as MVP. 

Although, it's difficult to find guys who are more essential to their team's success than Cam. If Brady had gone down before Jimmy G was traded, I think they'd still be doing just fine.

Wentz, Brown

Don't think so.  I think if he finishes strong, people will label it more of a bounce back year.  The early season injuries plus lackluster stats are clearly going against him, as it should.   Cam's "problem" has been consistency.  Cam's problem's also go along with team problems.   Our September/October record compared to our November/December record tells the tale.   Even the MVP year, Cam wasn't mentioned until after we beat the seahawks in week 6.   

Strong ending this year (with the SB that we are going to win), along with a decent to strong start next year, Cam will be in the running.  However due to his slow start he won't be in the running this year no matter what our finish is.

Wentz should win MVP missing 3 games shouldn't hurt him and i still think Watson is the rookie of the year

Cam not even in the MVP discussion

Watson went down too early in the season for him to be ROTY. I think it'll come down to pretty close race between Kamara and Hunt.  Hunt's going to have way more rushing yards than any other rookie so it'll probably be Hunt. 

With the MVP tho, I agree that it should still be Wentz. He went down so late in the season and was performing at such an incredible level for about 3/4 of the season I think that should be good enough. If they dont give it to Wentz itll just go to Brady by default.

    • Just had Thanksgiving meal with a couple dozen family and friends. I lucked out and got one of the smoked turkey legs. Stuffing, mashed taters and gravy, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, kale, smoked ham, chicken and rice, corn, lima beans, cranberry sauce, and great people. My brother got his guitar out and we got to singing. Lots of actual conversations with people I hardly  ever get to see, haven't seen in a while, or who I never met before. Just a great moment to remember.
    • 3-8 would be a higher win percentage than 3-9
    • Same... With the personnel the Niners had, that defense could have been historically good in the right hands. Under Wilks they were certainly good, they didn't quite rise to that level. Honestly, I see Wilks kinda like I see Rivera: fantastic person, decent head coach. Skill wise, phenomenal DB coach, so-so DC. His greatest strength is his leadership. Hard to find many better in that department. In the Xs and Os / execution area though, not as good. Bottom Line: Wilks is the sort of coach that needs a staff that excels in those aspects of the game where he's weaker. But, like Rivera, I don't know that he scouts assistants very well. That as much as anything might be why he's not in the NFL now.
