Its just regular season. And it pretty much goes to either a QB or RB year after year.
Hard to argue against Rodgers there. Other candidates would be Mahomes, Allen, Brady. Cooper Kupp is allegedly a candidate except that they never have given it to a wide receiver. If Jerry Rice never got an MVP, well what can you say about Kupp's chances. Even a kicker got it one year. A kicker! How embarrassing.
