I agree and that's kind of unfortunate. If there is a QB currently proving his value for the team (MVP), Wilson is among the best of them.
Mahomes will have another legit shot and as much as I hate to admit Brady will be in it too.
Big Ben has a stout D to help him out. May not be 10-0 w/o Ben, but still very good.
MVP definitely gets overlooked any more as actual most valuable player. That said, I'd say Henry is more valuable than THill in Tennessee.
I cannot see Brady in the mix. He has had a couple of absolute stink bombs in prime time. I would be stunned if he won it.
Henry \ Cook
1079 \ 1069
+ 178 \ + 61
1257 \ 1130
127 yard cushion to repeat as Champ.

Some interesting nuggets I found from @thejoezilla:
Since @blaqbadger14 became a Titan, the defense has allowed 20 conversions on 55 3rd down attempts. A conversion ratio of 36%
Before King was brought in the Titans defense allowed 53 conversions on 82 attempts for a ratio of 65%
Breon Borders-
Before Borders and King
7 games - 7 sacks
Insert Border and King
4 games - 7 sacks
In that 4 game span, they played the #1 ranked offense (Total yards) twice in three weeks.
They faced the #2 passing offense twice in the Colts, who are also #1 in Total yards, and they faced the #1 rushing team in the NFL. The Ravens.
Ravens have averaged 160 yards a game. The Titans held them to 133 yards.
The Colts average 293 yards of passing a game.
In two meetings in three weeks the Titans allowed the Colts to 288 yards. A marginal improvement
In 7 games before Borders and King the Titans were giving up 397 yard of offense a game.
In four games since they got into the line up. They have allowed 327 yards a game .
Titans remaining opponents offensive rankings:
Cleveland #24
Jacksonville #27
Detroit #22
Green Bay #7
Houston #17

Breon Borders has now moved up from #11 to #8 overall on PFF CB grades.
Butler is the #25 CB
King is the #36 CB
Hooker is the #13 Safety
Simmons is the #6 DI
Long Jr. would be the #1 LB if he had more qualifying snaps!

Borders has arguably been the biggest difference maker over the past few weeks. QB's have been targeting him like crazy, thinking he'll be a weak link, but he's always in great position and almost always making a play against the ball.Breon Borders has now moved up from #11 to #8 overall on PFF CB grades.

I don't know where this guy came from, but he's been a huge addition to the defense.
After Week 12:
Receiving yards:
A.J. Brown = 638
Corey Davis = 619
638 + 619 = 1257 combined passing yards
Derrick Henry rushing yards = 1257

UDFA in 2017 out of Duke. On EIGHT practice squads in three years. What a story.
Borders Patrol! You ain’t crossing this border amigo!Almost had two picks!

Derrick Henry (1,257) has more rushing yards than 20 entire NFL teams do this season.

doesn't really seem like CD has been on the same level as AJ.. but alas
Stopped at the Borders!Borders Patrol! You ain’t crossing this border amigo!
THATS an awesome stat!
They're really not though.doesn't really seem like CD has been on the same level as AJ.. but alas
Touchdowns:
AJB - 8
CD - 3
Don't want to completely detract from what Davis has done though. He's been a reliable receiver, and a solid threat that takes advantage of what's given to him. Brown is just a complete difference maker and we really don't get him the ball enough.
Butler has been playing really well for the most part this year. Borders is a pleasant surprise
