Damn Wood has been lights out. Not only has he changed plays and scored 2 Td's off his 4 Int's in only 7 games, but he has CARRIED the secondary with a bunch of injuries to Al, Bigby, Rouse, etc. thus far.
I know it's early and rarely do defensive players get MVP votes, but he'd get mine as it's a short list thus far.
It's easy to say that ARod is the MVP of our team. Look at it like this, if Wood got hurt, we'd suffer but not be expected to lose. If ARod got hurt we'd prob. lose most EVERY game with the subpar backup QB's we have....but that's not how voting goes for MVP (they have to win games by themselves and I like ARod, but Wood just does it EVERY week).
As far as NFL MVP, there's a reason Wood won a Heisman and got drafted very high with Oakland, but he's finally come into his groove at QB of the DB's...maybe a bit older, but as far as gamechangers, his talent is immense. Throw towards him (get shut down or picked for a TD thus far). Even more impressive is his broken toe. What a tough SOB!
It's early, but he gets my vote for MVP right now in the NFL as he's maybe won 2 games for us thus far as a CB which is unheard of since Deion.
Warner gets some votes, Big Ben from the Steelers, but can't think of many of NFL players who can/or did win games by themselves at this point in the season.
Thoughts? Who are the MVP candidates right now? Is C. Wood a viable candidate?
