A QB shouldn’t win MVP this year. Who’s your pick for non-QB MVP? (alien.top)

Most people seem to be giving their ranks on MVP voting citing only QBs. It’s hard to imagine that just a title over 10 years ago Brees’ 46 TDs wasn’t enough to win MVP.

I’m curious as to who the real MVP candidates are. QB production is down so I’m really gearing towards awarding it to a defensive player like Myles Garrett. I know some people have also cited CMC and Hill.

My objective MVP list in no particular order:

Myles Garrett Tyreek Hill CMC Patrick Mahomes Lamar Jackson Demeco Ryans Lions O-Line Eagles O and D-Lines

The definition of an MVP is far beyond statistical dominance. These players or units provide the most value to their respective teams IMO.

Though I agree that this year shows as much as any season why non-QB's have as much or more impact, I have to include Mahomes and Lamar because their teams are winning by operating through them; Mahomes is carrying an otherwise pedestrian offense, and Lamar's skillset and newfound ownership of the system far outweighs his touchdown production, or lack thereof. You could argue both teams' defenses are playing well enough to suppress the value of the QB's, but those values can by synonymous, especially since all of their losses have been at the expense of their teammates (especially Mahomes' receivers dropping passes).
