Pro Football Writers of America name Patriots QB Tom Brady the 2017 AP NFL MVP

The Pro Football Writers of America announced their selection for 2017 NFL MVP is New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. This is Brady’s third PFWA MVP award (2007, 2010, 2017), but it should not be confused with the Associated Press MVP award which is considered the standard in MVP discussions.

Brady led the NFL with 4,577 passing yards and ranked third in the NFL with 32 touchdown passes and a 102.8 passer rating, leading the Patriots to the top seed in the AFC.

The PFWA MVP award is a good indicator of which player will win the AP MVP award.
