Do you guys really think he played at the same level last season as in 2022? And the only difference was the WRs? I don’t. And it’s not a huge knock on him.

I said it for most of the year - he wasn't at his best last regular season. He was holding balls he shouldn't and throwing balls he should hold. He was just a little out of sorts for fairly significant chunks of the year.
Which should've still gotten him the 1 spot because there's just no question who the best player in the sport is.
As I said in-season, even the greatest to ever do it don't have their best year every year. Sometimes they have seasons that are 80% of their peak capacity and those seasons are still stellar. But they're STILL the greatest to to do it.
I can understand not giving him the MVP in any given year over the next 5. But I cannot for the life of me understand not putting him at 1 on this list every year. Because even if he doesn't play at the level of the best player in the game that single season, he's still the guy in the sport that literally every single GM in football would take at 1.1 in a re-draft.
It's ridiculous.
