    I asked in what season would unbiased you have voted for Ben. You dodge which means you would not have voted for Ben.

    My point is that if you were an unbiased voter rather than a Steeler fan the MVP winner would have gotten YOUR vote. A stray idiot vote for Romo would still have happened. Brady would have got his too from "goat" bias.

    Ben would still not have gotten a vote

    Half the voters can consider Ben to be just behind Rodgers or Mahommes and it would be invisible.

    That is why stray voted for undeserving QBs are not an indictment on voters bias against Ben.

    Anybody who voted for Ben over the MVP winner would be wrong just like a Romo voter as neither has never had the top season among QBs.

    I would have voted for Ben in 2014. But it’s irrelevant debating you because you’re always right. The fact he got 0 votes is overwhelming. He statistically was better than Todgers in Yardsge and completion percentage. Rodgers was better than him in passer rating, td’s and interceptions. That doesn’t justify Rodgers getting nearly every vote and a Ben getting zero votes. It’s a popularity thing first and foremost. At the time a Rodgers characther wasn’t revealed or he probably wouldn’t have won it either.

    Exactly that’s my whole point. Bias - perhaps you have heard of it. Like Montana winning the mvp when his stats were worse than Ben or Rodgers winning the season mvp when his stats weren’t as good as Be s.

    I don’t even know what you’re trying to say here. Bottom line is I’m not disputing that Rodgers shouldn’t have won the 2014 MVP but Ben had better stats in some areas and as a result should have received some votes. The whole point of that was to point out the bias against Ben by the voters not whether he was better than Rodgers or the bias for Rodgers which there was some of that too of course.

    ‘The voters get very lazy. It was just like the bias for Garrett and against Watt three years ago. Garrett is better now but he definitely was not three years ago.
