Super Bowl MVP

[Timugen]

Am I the only one who thinks Joseph Addai got robbed of the MVP? Yeah, he didn't get a TD, but every time he touched the ball he made the Bears players look like Pop Warner All-Stars.

Oh, and the commercials (with the exception of a few) completely stunk. WTF?

I disagree. I am a huge Colts fan and Joseph is the man but he doesn't deserve the MVP. If anybody did besides Peyton it was Bob Sanders.

And what exactyly did Peyton do? I love the guy; he's my 2nd favorite pro QB behind Brees, but what exactly did he do other than that pass to Wayne? He dumped off a bunch of 2-3 yard passes that Addai turned into 8-12 yard gains, with a few of them being critical 3rd down conversions that sustained the drive.

I would entertain an argument that Addai shouldn't have gotten it, but only if that argument was made for Rhodes. Going into the 4th quarter I was at a toss-up as to who deserved it. They both played exceptional games; Rhodes had more rushing yds and a score, but Addai had more all-purpose yds by far and basically sat the 2nd half.

Either way, Addai or Rhodes deserved it; but recognize it for what it is - the equivalent of the lifetime achievement award at the Oscars (And this is coming from someone who was conflicted about who to root for but decided to root for the Colts solely for Manning.)

The Colts O-line as a collective group. 199 yards rushing, 1 sack allowed.

I was rather suprised when Peyton got it. I thought one of the running backs would get it for sure. or maybe rex grossman. he was very valuable to the colts.

Grossman was my vote.

Considering that it was a monsoon at the game Peyton played very well considering the conditions. I think he definately deserves it as he is the leader of team, but like someone said above the O line completely dominated the Bears front four all day.

If ever one of the non-skilled positions was going to win an MVP, this was the year. My vote would have gone to Jeff Saturday. It's hard to give it to the whole O-line, so I would pick out the leader and give it to Saturday. I have no issue with Peyton winning it. After that early interception, he settled down and lead the team to the win.

I think Ron Turner and Rex Grossman should have gotten the MVP award.

Both of them were very instrumental in the Colts win last night.
