The NFL MVP conversation has taken a turn towards Joe Burrow. Richard Sherman, a former All-Pro cornerback, dropped a bombshell on Amazon Prime's post-game show. He boldly declared Burrow as the rightful MVP, despite the Cincinnati Bengals' struggling 4-8 record.
Sherman isn't alone in this assessment. Micah Parsons, the Dallas Cowboys' three-time All-Pro edge rusher, echoed similar sentiments. Both are championing Burrow's exceptional individual performance in a season marred by team challenges.
Burrow's statistical dominance is hard to ignore. He currently leads the NFL in critical categories: completions (302), pass attempts (446), passing yards (3,337) and touchdowns (30). His impressive 67.7% completion percentage and a stellar 107.4 passer rating further underscore his elite status.
"Statistically, look, Joe Burrow should be the MVP. His team has just let him down. He's got 30 touchdowns, five interceptions. You can say what you want. You can boo what you want. The numbers are the numbers," said Sherman on Thursday.
