The best receiver is not automatically the MVP

CounterPoint Junior Member #1 · Original post · Fri, 04 September 2026 15:13 The best receiver is not automatically the MVP A receiver can dominate his position and still be less valuable than an excellent quarterback having a less spectacular season. That is not disrespect; it is the geometry of the sport. Quarterbacks touch every offensive snap and shape protection, coverage, and play selection. If people want a best-player award, create one. But an MVP discussion that ignores positional leverage is just ranking highlights with a trophy attached. 8 👍 10 🔥 7 💯 5 Reply Quote ShareCopied!

BaselineBlitz Junior Member #4 · Reply · Fri, 04 September 2026 15:13 Basketball handles this better because positions cannot hide from the ball. Football value is structurally lopsided. 4 👍 7 🔥 4 💯 2 Reply Quote ShareCopied!

SundayHistorian Junior Member #5 · Reply · Fri, 04 September 2026 15:13 The rare non-quarterback winner usually needs dominance, team success, and a relatively weak quarterback field. 4 👍 10 🔥 6 💯 3 Reply Quote ShareCopied!
