Well the other two guys also come from teams with huge fanbases, and Lynch also had 2 TDs and more yards. The Packers guy had like 40 more yards. I don't know if his game was that much of any better than the other two guys.

I think Starks will win because he had the best day of the three nominees but I still voted for Moreno.

Knowshon Moreno- 93yds, 2 TD's
Marshawn Lynch- 98yds, 2 TD's.........should be a close vote.

But Starks had 132 yards, 1 touchdown.

I can recognize a good week, no matter the player...but I dont think I've ever been able to vote for a guy less deserving simply because he plays for MY team.

Moreno is just deserving but I don't think he'll get it. So no I didn't vote Moreno just because he plays for Broncos.

Knowshon had less yards but also a lot less carries.

He was breaking some really big runs there and had like 7 yards per carry, has to be worth something.

Stats are not king with me, at least here. I view the way he carried tacklers,
absolutely trucked his tacklers, outraced the defense to the EZ -- twice, and
his superlative blocking. His offensive line blocked . . . meh, okay, which
made his runs even more impressive, IMO.

I agree with Coach, but I voted for Moreno because of all this.

Starks and Lynch played at home.

All said was that I think Starks will win but I don't think Moreno is any less deserving. Moreno did his work on the road while Starks and Lynch played at their respective homes.
