That's pretty interesting, Ms. Dylan.
I would assume that the "passing yardage" issue has to do with that team's rushing attack?
Also, am I reading the crazy jersey chart correctly? Montana is the only 3x Super Bowl MVP? And Rapetheburgers has never been a SB MVP?

Mr. Fax: For some reason, I was thinking most passing yards in a regular season. Thanks!
Three. Montana was MVP of Super Bowls XVl, XlX, and XXlV.
2006 Super Bowl XL MVP: Hines Ward Wide receiver
Quote:
Antwaan Randle El, a quarterback in college, took a handoff from Parker, sprinted right and threw perfectly to Ward for a 43-yard TD with 9:04 remaining. It was the first Super Bowl touchdown pass by a receiver.
So did quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. The most noteworthy play for the youngest quarterback to win a Super Bowl was a horrid pass that Kelly Herndon of the Seahawks (15-4) returned a record 76 yards.
The 23-year-old Roethlisberger achieved it more with his legs than his arm. He converted enough second-half first downs to wind down the clock.

2009 Super Bowl XLlll MVP: Santonio Holmes Wide receiver
Quote:
On the Steelers' title-clinching drive, Holmes made his picturesque touchdown catch with three Cardinals around him, jumping to make the catch and somehow keeping both feet in bounds.
It was the type of catch to make Steelers great Lynn Swann proud. And the thing that made Holmes shake his head was not the difficulty of the reception, but rather how many of his friends and teammates had predicted it.

Only seven wide receivers have been named MVP in Super Bowl history.
