Either player is well deserving, most expected them to do well, but not "that well". Both of their teams are headed to the playoffs and both players are producing at a high level.
Peterson is "the weapon" on his team and Manning looks as if he's been playing in Denver for 8 years and not 8 months.
Give it to either of them, I don't care... same goes for the MVP too. I want playoff wins and a SB title. I'm allowing myself to breath a bit now with the reality of a #2 seed being in their grips and what that can really mean for them once the playoffs start.
There's a long journey ahead in the playoffs and they have to take care of business with the Browns and Chiefs coming to town. The Broncos are riding a 9 game winning streak, with their last loss on the road @ NE in week 5. These two final games in Denver are classic trap games - they're playing for seeding, lose 1 game and they can fall to #3 or #4 depending on how things shake out.
As odd as it is to say, the Browns and Chiefs games are unquestionable must wins for Denver. Ride that momentum, do not let up and please oh please... if they are leading by double digits late in either game, put in Brock and let him finish the game(s). Leave nothing to chance if the games are out of reach.
