Cam Newton wouldn't trade MVP Award for Super Bowl Ring

Objectively speaking, MVP is a much, much greater accomplishment than winning the super bowl.  Only 11 players in history have won multiple MVPs.  Many, many, many more have won multiple super bowls.  To be the absolute best player in the league is an individual accomplishment only one guy can achieve each year.  Winning the superbowl is something 53 guys each year get to achieve.

Winning MVP isn't really an individual award in reality.  Cam doesn't sniff that award without the 2015 Panthers D doing the work they did. 

Cam completely 59% of his passes that year and was 16th in passing yards...leading what wasn't technically a top 10 offense given they are ranked by yardage.  And at the time, he was logging his worst yards per carry since arriving into the league. 

The team did have a lot of TDs.  A massive part of why they had a lot of TDs was the defense ***No defense in the last 10 years has had more takeaways than that unit

Now, I'm not really trying to poop on Cam by saying that.  I just don't think individual awards in the ultimate team sport carry the weight some give them.

You can weight things the other way as well.  They had one of the least talented offenses in the league that season with complete cast offs to throw the ball to.

True but it wasn’t like he put up some one in a decade type season for his MVP….

the D did something unique
