Ridiculous to even have a RB in the conversation IMO. Barkley isn't even the MVP of his own offense. That would be, in order, Jalen Hurts, AJ Brown, Jordan Mailata, Devonta Smith, and then Barkley can add his name. Give him the OPOY for sure. MVP would be a complete joke.
The award isn't for the best player, it's for the most valuable player. Barkley had less YPC when he was with the Giants than D'Andre Swift had last year in Philly. Great player of course but he's a luxury, not the engine that makes the operation work.
