Drew Brees NFL MVP 2011: Historic Season Deserves Special Recognition
Drew Brees' record-breaking season deserves special recognition in the form of the 2012 NFL MVP award.
The New Orleans Saints quarterback threw for 5,476 yards this season, passing the record set by Miami Dolphins legend Dan Marino in 1984. But Brees didn't just break Marino's record, which stood for over 25 years—he demolished it.

Brees threw for 300 or more yards in 13 of 16 regular-season games, and also threw for at least 400 yards in a game twice. As if that wasn't impressive enough, Brees had 46 touchdown passes with just 14 interceptions.
Brees' special season deserves football's most prestigious individual honor, the MVP award.
Despite Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers having a fantastic season and throwing 45 touchdown passes with a mere six interceptions, Brees was simply at a level above the rest for the entire season.
Among the many categories Brees bested Rodgers in, two that stand out the most are completions of 20 yards or more and overall passing yards.
Only once did Brees not throw for 300 yards or more in consecutive games, which proves he was playing at an extraordinary high level on a consistent basis.

Brees also does not have the same supporting cast that players like Tom Brady, Eli Manning and Rodgers have at their disposal on offense.
He also threw 27 touchdown passes with only four interceptions during the second half of the season, in which the Saints went a perfect 8-0 to end the season strongly. Brees literally put the Saints on his back and carried them to within a few points of reaching the NFC Championship game.
Brees' historic season has to be recognized with the NFL MVP because he is the player most deserving of the award, and it isn't even close.
