NFL's Legendary MVP Seasons

0:00On April 1st, not all NFL MVP seasons hit the same. Since 1957, voters have crowned mostly quarterbacks for brilliant years, but a few stand out as straight legendary ones from running. Bax who bulldoze defenses or linebackers who wrecked games. The absolute peak is Peyton Manning's 2013 with the Broncos, where he threw for 5,477 yards and 55 touchdowns snagging 49 of 50 votes. Right behind him sits Tom Brady's 2007 with the perfect 16 and 0 Patriots, dropping 4,800 6 yards and 50 touchdowns against just 8 picks. Then there's Dan Moreno's 1984 comment of a year for Miami, 5,084 yards, 48 scores, leading to a 14 and 2 record and Super Bowl run with numbers that held up for decades. These speeds reshaped how we see the position, like Adrian Peterson in 2012, who shredded his ACL 9 months earlier, but still rushed for two.

1:021097 yards, nearly breaking the single season record and dragging the Vikings to the playoff solo. Or Jim Brown in 1963, averaging 133 yards per game over 14 contests in a run heavy era built to stop him. Flashback to Kurt Warner's 1999 fairytale. Going from stocking shells to 4,353 yards, 41, touchdowns, and a Super Bowl with the Rams. Terrell Davis in 1998, top 2,000 rush yards and 21 scores for back-to-back titles, though injuries cut his prime. Short, what ties these together is they outlast the box scores, turning football into something epic, where one player makes the impossible feel routine and defences look helpless.
