In other news Vince Young won the "player screwed by Tom Brady for an award" award.

VY's comeback > Brady's comeback.

This. The guy basically wanted to kill himself a year ago, and then turns around the Titans and doesn't get recognized? Ridiculous. If they wanted to give Brady the "Most Rules Ever Created Because of a Player Award" I'd be okay with that. The next time I see him complaining to a ref after someone tries to knock him down I'm going to smash my TV.

Every player since 2003 (Jon Kitna) has won the award following injuries from the previous season. Writers generally see the award as a rebound following a physical issue, rather than Vince Young just completely going apes**t. Also, did you see Vince Young play? Brady was statistically superior.
