Starting off with the QB position, I believe there's 2 QB's that are battling it out, and honestly either could win their positional award. Ben Slothlisberger and Luke Skywalker are both doing very well, each of them both near the top in all categories, flashing excellence in everything. Slothlisberger is 2nd in passing yards, 2nd in passing TDs, 1st in TD:INT ratio, 3rd in passer rating, and here's the kicker, 7th in completion percentage. On the other hand, Skywalker is 5th in passing yards, 1st in passing TDs, 3rd in TD:INT ratio, 2nd in passer rating, and 2nd in completion rating. Both are top in most categories, with Skywalker doing really good with a bit less volume. Slothlisberger is averaging about 1.5 more YPC, but both QB's have around the same attempts. The real seperation here will probably be team success, and even if Slothlisberger is playing better, Skywalker might get the nod because Honolulu is having more team success. If Honolulu makes a deep playoff run and NOLA is a first round exit or misses the playoffs, then I don't see Slothlisberger winning an award.
For runningbacks, Tatsu Nakamura is currently ahead, but all the RBs are neck to neck, so one big game from anybody could put them on the map. He leads the league in rushing yards and TD's, and his YPC isn't that far behind, so if the season ended now he'd definitely win RBOTY.
