Prior to the NFL Awards tonight, I wanted to get some feeling about who Minnesota Vikings fans would select for the awards. I’m looking for your choice, not who you think will win. Vote below for your selections:
MVP
-
Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills QB - 3,731 Yards, 28 TD, 6 INT, 531 Yards Rushing 12 TD
-
Saquon Barkley, Philadelphia Eagles RB - 2,005 Yards, 13 TD, 278 Yards Receiving, 2 TD
-
Joe Burrow, Cincinnati Bengals QB - 4,918 Yards, 43 TD, 9 INT, 201 Yards Rushing 2 TD
-
Jared Goff, Detroit Lions QB - 4,629 Yards, 37 TD, 12 INT, 56 Yards Rushing
-
Lamar Jackson, Baltimore Ravens QB - 4,172 Yards, 41 TD, 4 INT, 915 Yards Rushing 4 TDs
My Winner: Lamar Jackson - the best numbers on a contending team. I will only listen to Barkley as an alternate. Josh Allen’s MVP was media made and the rhetoric started in August.
Offensive Player of the Year
-
Saquon Barkley, Philadelphia Eagles RB - 2,005 Yards, 13 TD, 278 Yards Receiving, 2 TD
-
Joe Burrow, Cincinnati Bengals QB - 4,918 Yards, 43 TD, 9 INT, 201 Yards Rushing 2 TD
-
Ja’Marr Chase, Cincinnati Bengals WR - 1,708 Yards, 17 TD, 32 Yards Rushing
-
Derrick Henry, Baltimore Ravens RB - 1,921 Yards, 16 TD, 193 Yards Receiving, 2 YD
-
Lamar Jackson, Baltimore Ravens QB - 4,172 Yards, 41 TD, 4 INTs, 915 Yards Rushing 4 TD
My Winner: Saquon Barkley - the best season a running back has ever had if you include the postseason. You get over 2,000 yards rushing in 16 games and you get my vote.
Defensive Player of the Year
-
Zack Baun, Philadelphia Eagles LB - 151 Tackles, 11 TFL, 3.5 Sacks, 1 FR
-
Myles Garrett, Cleveland Browns DE - 14 Sacks, 47 Tackles, 22 TFL, 3 FF, 1 PD
-
Trey Hendrickson, Cincinnati Bengals DE - 17.5 Sacks, 46 Tackles, 19 TFL, 2 FF, 6 PD
-
Patrick Surtain II, Denver Broncos CB - 4 INT, 1 Def TD, 1 FR, 45 Tackles, 1 TFL, 58.9 Passer Rating when targeted
-
T.J. Watt, Pittsburgh Steelers LB - 11.5 Sacks, 61 Tackles, 19 TFL, 6 FF, 4 PD
My Winner: Trey Hendrickson - It’s between Hendrickson and Garrett for me. I give the nod to Hendrickson for the NFL sack lead and the 6 passes defensed. Garrett needs to get his hands up. Disappointing that Greenard and/or Van Ginkel couldn’t quite get on the list.

-
Brock Bowers, Las Vegas Raiders TE - 1,194 Yards, 5 TD
-
Jayden Daniels, Washington Commanders QB 3,568 Yards, 25 TD, 9 INT, 891 Yards Rushing, 6 TDs
-
Malik Nabers, New York Giants WR - 1,204 Yards, 7 TD
-
Bo Nix, Denver Broncos QB - 3,775 Yards, 29 TD, 12 INT, 430 Yards Rushing, 4 TDs, 1 TD Catch for 2 Yards
-
Brian Thomas Jr., Jacksonville Jaguars...
