I was naive to think the conversation was relegated to Twitter trolls and New Orleans Saints fans.
The NFL MVP debate is a very real thing these days with the most fervent arguments to be made for either Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes or Saints signal-caller Drew Brees. Mahomes is the young, impressive phenom likely to be in this sort of conversation for years to come. Brees is nearing the twilight of his career, a future Hall of Famer who somehow lacks a Most Valuable Player award in his trophy case despite ranking among the best to ever play the position.
