Like… they're nice. But I'd trade all the awards and being the media voters' favorite team for a Lombardi trophy. Heck I'd probably trade it all for a playoff win.
We watch this sport hoping for W's on the football field. Not hoping 50 media members who we can't even name vote for somebody.
I don't think really anyone "cares" about it but the fact is the awards exist and all other things being equal, you'd want to support your team/enjoy them being recognized. It's not that big a deal
