Uh, did this surprise you?

I'm pretty sure Darnold wasn't even a legitimate consideration.


And the hottest take in this entire thread is awarded to...

How many records did Barkley have to break and how many all time greats and current stars did he have surpass or come close to to make you believe he's a worthy recipient?

Ridiculous.

no one said Barkley wasn't worthy. He had a tremendous year.

However, QB is way more important than RB

Mayfield broke the rookie passing TD record btw. And he didnt start all the games.

The holding call on that Gurley run changed the entire game. Pats have the refs in their pockets once again. I'm so sick of this sport

Dunno about that, but the NFL is breathing a sigh of relief, because if the Rams won this game it forever would have had an unofficial asterisk next to their championship.

Yes, you absolutely stated Barkley wasn't worthy.

Importance of position is completely dependent on the players we're discussing.

As a general rule? Obviously qb is more valuable. To the Giants offense? Saquon was more valuable than Eli currently is and even more so than Beckham has ever been.

Rookie passing records are nowhere near as impressive as rushing ones as most great qb's eventually get smashed if they even sniff starting their first year out of college. Don't buy that? Take a look at Sam.

Barkley surpassed Zeke this year. No one was comparing Mayfield to Brees.
