And My NFL Awards Go To ….

,

I’m getting out ahead of the announcement of the ‘official’ 2019 NFL awards to share the players that I believe deserve extra special recognition.


As the 2019 NFL season comes to a close, it’s always a good idea to reflect on the past season–especially about those players who’ve had an impact in the league this year.

The ‘official’ NFL honors won’t be bestowed until Saturday night. They’ll include my favorite award, “The Walter Payton Man of the Year Award.” It will be given to the player who has done the most good in the community to help others’ lives.

My awards, which I call “The Sports Prophet Awards,” concentrate on what players did on the field during the 2019 season.

I also have a couple of ‘outside the ordinary’ awards for players that I think deserve special recognition.

So, here we go!

MVP: Lamar Jackson
OFF MVP: Christian McCaffery
DEF MVP: T.J. Watt
COY: Mike Tomlin
ROY OFF: Josh Jacobs
ROY DEF: Nick Bosa
Best QB: Patrick Mahomes
Best RB: Christian McCaffery
Best WR: Michael Thomas
Best TE: George Kittle
Best C: Maurkice Pouncy
Best OL: Mitchell Schwartz
Best DE: T.J. Watt
Best DT: Grady Jarrett
Best LB: Luke Kuechly
Best CB: Stephon Gilmore
Best S: Kevin Byard
Comeback Player: Jimmy Garoppolo

Now for my special awards:

Biggest Surprise: Emergence of Lamar Jackson
Biggest Disappointment: Dallas Cowboys
Unforgettable Play: Kittle carrying Saints on his face
Football Play of the Year: Lamar Jackson spinning around the Bengals for TD
Best Catch of the Season: Tyler Lockett tiptoe corner of the end zone.

There you have ’em. Let me know what you think!
