There are a few candidates for Most Valuable Player in 2017, headlined by New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. There are arguments for players like Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson or Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley, but there’s only one correct answer according to Peter King in Monday Morning Quarterback.
“With a week to play, the MVP on my ballot is Tom Brady,” King writes. “ Playing without his top target (Julian Edelman), playing while his team’s defense was being fixed on the fly, playing while taking a consistent beating, and playing at age 40 (that doesn’t matter, but it’s a part of his story), Brady has struggled some in December (four TDs, five interceptions).
