prompt Wrote:We're now halfway through the season and some players are already standing out tall in the index with some flashy stats. Share your early predictions for who you think might get an award this season and why, or talk about who you think deserves an award even though the stats might not be there to fully justify it yet.
Personally, I actually think that there are very few outliers in most stats so far this year (end of week 10). For every position leader I took a look at, there was someone else who had their own collection of stats that was also compelling. Looking at place kicker, for example - McDairmid, Fenick, and Small all are having great years. They've each missed only 1 field goal (all 40+ yard attempts), have multiple 50+ kicks made, and are 100% on extra point attempts. I honestly don't know how you could genuinely think one is statistically the best of those three other than having one on your team. And there's even an argument for Sidekick who has fewer 50+ made but hasn't missed any XPs or FGs. And looking at various other positions, it was similar - one OL has more pancackes, but has also given up more sacks so how does that compare with the 2nd most pancakes and no sacks given up. Or for receivers, do you value the player with more touchdowns and a higher average but 20 fewer catches, or the higher volume lower average one? Or what about 28 pancakes and 70 receptions but 400 fewer yards than the leaders?
At the end of the season, I assume that team stats or individual outstanding games will work as ways to help pick one player vs. the other in these kinds of situations, but I think what I'm really seeing is that the field is really open with multiple contenders for each award right now.
