The QB still controls the game more than a WR does, that's why I would go with Brady. Moss is #2 on my list. I like the points a lot of you are making … that’s why Moss finished second to Brady.

Anyone who doesn't want Tom Brady's man juice on his forehead knows so. Anyway, Brady goes from 24 TDs to 50 TDs in one year? Hello, Steroids, bitches! You don't hit 24 Homers one year and 50 the next without a little help from the Cream or the Clear. Obviously, Randy Moss is the MVP.

Tom Brady has got to be the most arrogant person on the planet....even for a NFL football quarterback. Perhaps that one writer was thinking that he isn't the best roll model out there? To me, being an MVP goes beyond ones play on the field. Maybe we should all consider that? It would be nice to see kids growing up today showing a little respect for their fellow humans rather then praising arrogant idiots and gangsters. I hate to say it but every professional athlete could take a page from professional hockey players. You never see them telling the press that they are "Soldiers" or crying about having to go to practice....just my two cents.

QBs can fling the ball up into space and let Randy go up and get it. No receiver is better than him at creating space (yes, he does frequently push off but he gets away with it because often times it's subtle and hard to call at game speed) and timing his jump for the ball. Two of the more ridiculous examples of this came during the first Dolphins game when Moss caught two TD bombs that were just horrible decisions and throws by Brady because Moss was double covered each time. Yet Moss still makes the grab. I would say that Moss makes the man. Jeff George, Randle Cunningham, Daunte Culpepper and now Tom Brady have all looked otherworldly with this guy blazing down the sideline. I think there's no question that Moss is the MVP and not Brady.

His receivers leave the Packers and become average receivers on their new teams or disappear from the league altogether." You do realize that, before this year, Brady had been doing this very same thing, right? Heard much from Deion Branch lately? “Every receiver that Favre has played catch with he’s made better.

Take away Favre and the Packers aren't in the playoffs. Every receiver that Favre has played catch with he's made better. His receivers leave the Packers and become average receivers on their new teams or disappear from the league altogether. Does Brady have that same effect? Moss is a phenomenal receiver when he wants to play. Brady stands behind the best o-line. How would the Pats be if Brady wasn't their QB? They'd probably still be pretty good.

The Patriots were playing with basically the same offense in 2007 as they had in 2006. They added Randy Moss and Wes Welker, and they go 16-0. Welker had some nice contributions, but Moss was the difference maker to that team. Favre doesn't make much sense either, of course. But how in the world can you not select Moss over Brady?
