    When does the "mvp" narrative wear out?

    Lamars MVP seems to mean more than any MVP in nfl history because its still used as a positive but its almost becoming a slight. Its becoming like Cam/Ryan/Wentz(wouldve won mvp if not hurt)

    He had 36 passing tds in 15 games

    since then hes had 59 TDs in 39 games

    I dont get the hype of him recently. He hasnt been good the last 2 seasons even when healthy. I just dont get how mvp seems like a lifetime achievement award
    Not here to be right, just here to have interesting discussions about my impulsive opinions

    That year he was something special. 3500 passing and 1200 rushing. He led his team to a 14-2 record. That year he was arguably the best in the league. League MVP, however, is not a title you retain. Hell, in 1982 a kicker was league MVP. That will never happen again, but Mark Moseley was in 1982 the best player in the league.

      It's already over, if it wasn't Baltimore would have opened up the pocket book before getting trapped in the 'fully guaranteed' corner earlier this season.

        Ravens don't believe he can win enough in the post season or he'd be on a new contract already, as Yard posted.
