Whatever. Watt had a good game, but his team didn't even win and Von had the better game. You could say that "either were deserving", but Von is more deserving.

Meh, Watt can have the individual honor. I'll take the win.

No. Miscarriage of something.

I don't disagree with you, but I'd have been a lot more frustrated if it was someone who put up far lesser stats. Their state line was about equal. Von is absolutely more deserving, but Von's had a lot of them in his career, Watt hasn't (though he's going to I'm sure) let the kid have his day in the spotlight.

Next time Von should just take the fumble for the TD, that should solve the issue. Lol

I say let the kid have his spotlight.

So this is the new thing now huh?? I feel like I'm in grade school again.

Statline "about equal", but 25% more game-time for one than the other. So... one was better.

Which kid?

Anyway, I'm not sure how I can stop it. I've tried googling "how to change award of weekly defensive player" to no avail.

It's kind of like Aaron Rodgers. Von does the unreal on the reg. Everyone already knows. It gets old giving the gold star to the same kid every assignment.

It's this kind of thinking that birthed participation trophies.

That is also a good point. I doubt Von is butthurt over this. He has us for that.
