    I "want" to be mad more than I am. Mentioning vince young, after he won it, it no longer carried the same luster it once had to me.

    Also with Marcus, I don't feel eager to like need to drop awards or stats or comparisons with anyone. Like he's our qb, I don't care what anyone thinks, I don't care if Jameis wins ROY, or if a Buccaneers fan wants to drop his stats as evidence he is better. I got this kid in the crock pot fellas, it smells delicious, and down the road, when it's ready, we gon be eating pretty good. And it'll be worth the wait.

    thats what happens when you get half your stats in two games and miss four others.

    He missed games. Definitely is going to be a great player but not deserving of any awards yet

    The NFL is NOT biased against Mariota. If anything the NFL loves Mariota. He's an ideal ambassador of the game due to his high character and already established national exposure. He didn't make it simply because he missed too many games especially at the end of the year when it came time to choose.

    It's funny how everybody is so quick to draw paranoid conclusions these days.

    Todd Gurley is a nominee (and yes I'm aware he's 3rd in rushing).. And dude only played 11 games... Mariota played 12...

    Now In no way am I saying gurley shouldn't get it over Marcus.. I'm just saying, if its applicable for him to be nominated missing a chunk of the season, the servings should be equal around the table.

    I agree, and Tyler Lockett really? I dunno, Mariota should have at least received a nomination.

    Marcus will have to settle for a few MVP awards down the road.

    And maybe a Lombardi trophy or two.

    The problem is Mariota missed the last 2 games. Out of sight out of mind.

    I think what we've learned about the Pepsi ROY award is its all about how you finish the season rather than how you start it. Which explains why VY won.

    Conversely the Heisman completely ignores the last games of the season which is why VY lost.
