(S27) PT3 - We're halfway there

To be totally honest, I'm not super familiar with how the voting goes for league awards, but if it's anything like the NFL the League MVP will go to a QB regardless, but I would be very surprised if the Arizona Outlaws starting running back Tatsu Nakamura didn't receive at least the offensive MVP and a handful of the League MVP votes. He's leading the league in rushing with a solid five yards per carry average and second in rushing touchdowns by a margin of a single score, all while being the feature back on the team with a league best 8 and 2 record. On top of that Tatsu has also added 240 receiving yards and a pair of receiving TDs to tie Raphtalia Chan for the RB lead for total TDs. After starting the year 0 and 2 by a combine margin of 4 points, the Outlaws have stormed back with 8 straight wins on the back of Tatsu, and I think that is deserving of some high praise. Behind his stellar effort, the Outlaws are first in their conference and second in the league for rushing and toal yards per game, despite being the worst passing team in their conference and second worst in the entire league from a yards per game perspective. If that doesn't convince you that a RB can carry a team and deserve an MVP trophy, I don't know what will
