hoping4ASuperBowl Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 The Patriots' offensive line walked away with the 2010 Madden Most Valuable Protectors Award this week. The award is based on a combination of statistics, most notably fewest sacks allowed, rushing yards, and passing yards. The Pats averaged a league-high 32.4 points to go with the eighth-most yards (363.8) and the fourth-fewest total sacks (25). Dan Koppen, Sebastian Vollmer, and Matt Light were mainstays up front. http://www.boston.com/sports/football/patriots/articles/2011/02/04/patriots_awarded_for_their_proficient_line_play/?rss_id=Boston.com+--+New+England+Patriots+news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsFanInDenver Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I think the award would make more sense if the entire offensive life got to shleep with the QB's wife! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klecko73isGod Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Best OL in football up in NE. Yeah, you hear that all the time. Really. Wouldn't you think the "Most Valuable Protectors" award would go to the O-line that allowed the fewest sacks, in which case this year would be a tie between the Giants and Colts. The press release even identifies the Pats as having given up the fourth fewest sacks. It's strange to give an award to a team for being the fourth best at the thing the award is for, ins't it?

BroadwayJoe12 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I don't understand how an NFL award can be named so poorly, by people who supposedly watch football. If it's called the Most Valuable Protector award than it should go to the team that allows the fewest sacks or maybe fewest sacks per pass attempt. I don't see how you add in rushing yards and offensive points scored. Either change it to Most Outstanding Oline Award or start calling the guy with the 4th most sacks on the year the Most Outstanding sack artists.

Garb Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Now we are literally making up awards to give the Pats? I admit that this one is undeserved. Well, I guess it depends - Brady was not sacked much in the regular season and the run game became relevant with BenJarvis Green-Ellis and a Garden Gnome named Danny Woodhead. However, the Jets killed and sacked Brady a lot in the postseason game, so that lingering image of the Jets beatdown colors what was a very good regular season by the 0-line. However, and more important, is how much it kills Zippy to know that the Jets are the most hated franchise in the NFL....contrary to his numerous, self-affirmation-like pleadings to the contrary.
