[QUOTE="ExpatPacker, post: 418112, member: 5535"] After last week it's down to about a 2% difference in completion %. Brees is at 70.7 and Rodgers at 68.3. But really and honestly Packer fans, if they give the MVP to Brees there's no reason to raise hell. Yes Rodgers probably deserves it more but Brees also deserves it. It may be a situation like Raji. How did Raji make the pro bowl? It was sort of a lifetime award thing. Brees should have won the MVP before but got snubbed. They may give it to him this time partly for that reason. I'm not saying that it's totally for non-football reasons that they give Brees the MVP, but that the non-football reasons may tip the scales in his direction because he has had such a great season. And regarding the Saints defense, they have shown improvement mainly against the run. They are defending the run much better than the Packers atm, so yes, there is a case for the Saints playing better defense right now. Passing defense is another story. Saints suck on pass defense as much as we do. Bogart: I'm not sure I agree with you that Rodgers has thrown more TD's than Brees because the Saints run it in more. Rodgers has 3 rushing TDs. Brees has 1. Brees actually gets more chances than Rodgers, you can't ignore that when you start making claims like that. [/QUOTE]
