Here are my award picks for the 2016 NFL Season.
MVP: Matt Ryan, Atlanta Falcons: Ryan had an incredible season this season leading his team to the Super Bowl. The Falcons had the best offense in the NFL season and Ryan desrves credit for that. It also helps that he has Julio Jones to throw passes to.
Runner up: Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers
Offensive Player of the Year: Le'Veon Bell, Pittsburgh Steelers: Bell was absolutely tremendous this season for the Steelers coming off his injury both running the ball and catching the ball out of the backfield. His injury in the AFC Championship game was brutal and the Steelers certainly missed his presence in that game.
Runner up: Ezekiel Elliott, Dallas Cowboys
Defensive Player of the Year: Landon Collins, New York Giants: Collins was absolutely tremendous this season on one of the leagues most improved defenses. His improvement from his rookie season has been incredible and he's come a long way.
Runner up: Khalil Mack, Oakland Raiders
Offensive Rookie of the Year: Ezekiel Elliott, Dallas Cowboys: Elliott was absolutely tremendous in his rookie season. The Cowboys certainly have a foundation for the years to come with him and Dak Prescott. It certainly helps that he has that terrific offensive line to run behind.
Runner up: Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys
Defensive Rookie of the Year: Joey Bosa, San Diego Chargers: Bosa was outstanding in his rookie season, despite missing the first few games due to a contract holdout. The Chargers found themselves a cornerstone defensive player for years to come.
Runner up: Keanu Neal, Atlanta Falcons
Coach of the Year: Dan Quinn, Atlanta Falcons: Quinn has done an incredible job in his second season with the Falcons. He deserves credit for the teams improvement defensively. Who had this team making the Super Bowl let alone making the playoffs before the season? I didn't.
Runner up: Adam Gase, Miami Dolphins
Comeback Player of the Year: Bell. See: Offensive Player of the Year.
Runner up: Jordy Nelson, Green Bay Packers
