Matty Ice = Legit MVP Candidate

It's weird too, Ryan is kicking *** and so are so many other offensive rookies. Slaton and Forte, to name a couple.

Thanks.

Candidate does not exactly mean that he should winning. I don't really think he should or will win it, but he's a big part of their turnaround.

Well, I guess that means he joins th other 15 "candidates" on the list too.

The word, as used in your title, is a bit misleading as to the point you are trying to get a across.

MVP is preety wide open this year though.

Portis, forget it, only because his injuries have slowed him down.

AP for sure
Warner for sure
Polamalu/Haynesworth on D
Brett Favre? Matty Ice is as much of a candidate as Favre is.
Brees? Has the MVP ever been awarded to a player on a team that didn't make the playoffs?

Anyone else i'm forgetting?

Nope, but I will say that this has been a great rookie class this year. We might see a lot of rookie starters in the play-offs, which would be good to see. Matt Ryan,Joe Flacco,Chris Johnson,Matt Forte,DeSean Jackson. A lot of these rookies are good this year. A lot of the younger guys are doing good like second or third players this year.

Why is he called Matty Ice? Because it rhymes with Natty Ice?

Yeah, because that makes more sense than Matt (his first name) and Ice (as in having in his veins as a rookie).
