(S20) - PT4 - Awards Season

[Baron1898]

The Liberty may have narrowly missed the playoffs, but despite their quest for title gold ending early, there are a number of players among Philly’s ranks deserving of recognition. Of course, the top dog leader of them is Mr. Running Back of the Year himself, Sam Torenson. He currently leads the entire league in rushing yards, with 1334 yards on 322 attempts for a good 4.1 average clip and 8 touchdowns. He chipped in 208 receiving yards on 36 catches for good measure, further solidifying him for easy awards contention and making that trade a few years back with Chicago all the sweeter. Now, time for a little self promotion, but I am not afraid of saying that Venus Powers absolutely has Punter of the Year wrapped up with her name on it. No one else even sniffs it. She leads all punters with 4401 yards from her booming foot, and - despite also leading in punting attempts with 92 - she still leads all punters in average punting distance, a blistering 47.8 yard average per punt. Awards season is often a question of volume vs efficiency, but if you have both, it’s a slam dunk case. Powers has the power and the consistency to dominate the punting conversation.
