Todd Gurley. Real MVP?

Imagen
The 2017 NFL season is over, and the voting for most valuable player are on. The top of the voting is for Tom Brady. The second place would be for Tod Gurley who has a 1,305 yards and 13 TD and other 788 recieving yards for a total of 2,093 yards. We think that Gurley have to be MVP. Also his performance has helped the LA Rams to be back in play offs and be divitional champions since 2003. As you can see in this NFL total access comparison between the Adrian Peterson's MVP season and the 2017 Todd Gurley season, we can see that Todd Gurley is similar.  However, is difficult for RB to win this kind of awards, over QB, and there are other QB MVP candidates, among them: Tom Brady, Carson Wenz, Drew Brees and even Case Keenum.  Only time will tell. 

A new hope for San Francisco 49 ers

 As the San Francisco   49 ers are back on track, they won against the Jacksonville jaguars their 4th game in row. The y have had a misery in past seasons. And after they started 0-9 this season . It has been a tough season. And they will probably have a high draft pick.  But after the Niners win against AFC South division champion Jacksonville, there's a genuine belief in the Bay Area in the idea that with Garoppolo at quarterback for the Niners (5-10) in the future, all things are once again possible. And also with coach Kyle Shanahan ( super bowl offensive cooridnator with the Falcons) many fans think they are ready to be contenders this season. So the new hope with Shanahan-Garoppolo is real. But they are not the only who are improving in San Francisco, also the deffense and the running game have improved.  "I always felt like we could have won a bunch of games " RB  Hyde  said. And indeed they were losing their games by a small difference.  In the last g

The Super Bowl champions; The Patriots host the Atlanta Falcons in  Sunday Night Football prime time game. It was expected to be a tight game with many points by two teams. Although, it was not, it was a game dominated by the Patriots-. In a foggy night at Foxborough the Patriots beat the Falcons 23-7. In the first half they outscored Matt Ryan and the Falcons offense, who struggled all the game to move the chains. The Patriots looked confident, moving the ball, they had passing game and rushing game alternating Giliselle and Lewis. As every week Brandon Cooks was a major target for Tom Brady. And young Falcons defense could not stopped them.  However, the heroes of the night was Patriots defense, who were ranked in the bottom of the NFL defense and were able to stopped Falcons offense, who was exactly the same offense that the SuperBowl one, except for Kyle Shannahan, who is having his problems in San Francisco.

The AFC West is moving, the Oakland Raider are not in the bottom of it, while the Chiefs still in the top, they mat be worried of having the second game lost in row.  This Thursday Night game started week 7. As we expected it was a great game with many points a and big plays. Derek Carr had a prominent night, he threw 417 yards, and Raiders had a total of 505 yards. It was really important for the Raiders to show that their offensive game still strong with the diversify of their  passing game with Carr,  supported by a strong RB. Although Marshawn Lynch was ejected from the game, the Raiders handled it well with Washington. Also , in the other side of the ball, the sign of Navarro Bowman, LB coming from the 49 ers added a strong component f the Raiders defense. It was a very equal game. The Chiefs had 425 total yards and Alex Smith threw 331 yards. As always the playmakers from the chiefs had an important night; Tyrek Hill, Kareem Hunt, and Travis Kelce were major targets for Alex

Thursday Night Football: Raiders vs KC

Divisional round game. Both teams lost their previews games, Kansas City Chiefs against the Steelers in arrowhead and the Okland Raiders lost it against the Chargers  The AFC standings may change with the result of this prime time game. The Raiders will be looking forward to getting out from the bottom of the division, where the Chargers were before week 6. In their other hand the Chiefs will try to recover from Sunday loss at home and demonstrate they are in the top 1 of standings in the NFL. This is not going to be easy, since many defensive coordinators have found the manner to stop Kansas city offense and neutralize Kareem Hunt and Tyrek Hill. In the game against the Steelers the Chiefs had problems moving the ball. So Andy Reid must find new ways to move the ball in offense. In the other hand, the Raiders will try to overcome the injury of their QB Derek Carr.  Manuel has not done a bad job, but  has not adapted to the offensive system designed for Carr. The hope for the

Huge win for the Atlanta Falcons Matt Ryan an his teams scored 34 points in the inauguration day of the new Mercedes Benz stadium, Devonta Freeman ran for 84 yards, and Matt Ryan threw for 252 yards. Falcons send a strong message for the NFC. They are back to be super bowl contenders by leading their division. What is interesting about the Falcons defense, is that they have more experience than last year, is a young defense, in this game they rush the QB Aaron Rodgers, had two turnovers and keep to line Greenbay offense.  Besides that, Falcons defense still carring the shame of blewing a 25 point lead in the superbowl LI in Houston Texas against the Patriots. Atlanta defense look strong, but still have the challenge to keep that level in the 4th quarter. Photo by esto In the other hand, the Green Bay packers had a long Sunday night. Aaron Rodgers couldn't move the chanis, Jordy Nelson was out for an injury, Ty Montgomery was no able to run the ball he just ran for 35 y

Mile High Stadium Before the game stopped due to a thunder storm, the Broncos started with a strong offense leaded by Trevor Sieman, second year. Since the beginning they established the running game with healthy C.J Anderson and Jamal Charles that came this years from the Chiefs. Also Trevor Siemean found their WR Thomas and Sanders and worked well with the TE. The Broncos had the domain from the beginning to the end, the Broncos defense just allowed 15 yards for one of the best RB in the league Ezekiel Elliot, the Broncos defensive backs, Harris Jr, Talib covering Cowboys WR and constantly  rushing Dak Prescott. Prescott threw two interceptions, were sacks by Von Miller two times and overthrew passes.  Also, the possession time was for the Broncos. Long drives and many 3rd down conversions and an effective clock management. There is no doubt that Broncos offense has improved since last year, and the defense still in the top 10 of the league, since the SuperBowl 50. They
