NFL Football at its best. NFL Football at its craziest.
All right, please send comments, but keep in mind this list is not mine. Where are all the Detroit Lions? Okay, that was a joke, but Calvin Johnson better be somewhere on that list or something is wrong.
The top two are easy, Peyton Manning and Tom Brady.
The next two players are less easy to guess, but more a product of the Super Bowl, Ben Roethlisberger and Larry Fitzgerald. Just the fact that the Squibster can even come close to spelling Roethlisberger is a testament to the impact of playing in the Super Bowl.
Ben Roethlisberger is number 3
Number 5 is Adrian Peterson.
5. Adrian Peterson, RB, Minnesota Vikings: A.D. had an incredible sophomore season, tossing the Vikings on his back down the stretch and carrying them to an NFC North title. There’s no player in the league who has greater big-play potential, and he brings that big-play potential 25 times a game. Hands down the best running back in the league, he will be in the MVP conversation over the next decade of his career.
Oh, and Calvin Johnson, he made number 83 on the list, the lone Lion.
