This season has been full of ups and downs, here is a look at who has been consistent enough to get the awards.MVP/Defensive MVP - Sean Lee
Sean Lee is a leader to this defense, he leads the team in tackles and is an unstoppable force on this Cowboys defense. He is a line backer the Cowboys have been looking for, a powerful force to make tackles when he has the chance. I won't be surprised if he is the MVP by the end of the season, if he can stay healthy this is a no brainer.
Other considerations
Demarcus Ware (Has been his usual self by pressuring and getting to the Quarterback)
Offensive MVP - Miles Austin
This Cowboys offense is always inconsistent. Murray is hurt and only had 3 good games all season, and Romo throws way to many interceptions. The most consistent player is Miles Austin, every week but one he has either gotten over 100 yards and/or a touchdown, or less than 100 and a touchdown. He is on track for another 1000 plus yard season and has earned this award.
Other considerations
Jason Witten (Had a slow start but has been great the past few games)
Rookie of the year - Morris Claiborne
There is no doubt about this award, Claiborne has shown that moving up to get him with the 6th over all pick paid off. He has an immediate impact on this defense. Even though there are some flaws, he is young and improving and will be a great some day.
Other considerations
Lance Dunbar (He has shown speed in the return game and looks good for an un drafted rookie)
Witten gets my vote. Clutch catches, always getting hit in the middle and I bet his experience and leadership has been key in getting the o-line to step up!
ReplyDeleteHe for sure gets consideration, but the first few games he was not doing anything, Austin has always been there for the team
