1741 League Commendation
The 2013 regular season MVP selection was more difficult than ever, and all the focus was on Peyton Manning and Lu Ke:
Should we choose Da Manning, who will turn 38 years old in March, or should I choose Lu Ke, who has just turned 24 in November? Should it be the fifth regular season MVP that allowed Da Manning to break the league record, or should Lu Ke be the regular season MVP for the first time in history?
How difficult is it? If you list the data, you can feel the intensity of this competition.
The first is Lu Ke.
Lu Ke, who was unexpectedly injured in the opening game, unfortunately missed three games and was not able to complete the full-time season, but in the thirteen regular season games, he still gave a perfect performance.
He made 4,677 yards of passing, made 41 touchdowns, made six interceptions, and completed 76.5 per cent of the ball.
Among them, this is Lu Ke's second consecutive 4,000-yard season, his second consecutive season with 40 pass touchdowns, his third consecutive season with single-digit interceptions, and the second consecutive season with a pass completion rate of more than 70 percent - among them, the pass completion rate has set a new career high.
And then there's Big Manning.
Following last season's successful "comeback award", the big Manning completed another season of full attendance and set a series of records with an absolutely strong performance.
He made 5,477 yards of passing, scored 55 passing touchdowns, made dozens of interceptions, and had a pass completion rate of 68.3%.
Among them, the number of passing yards broke the record set by Drew Bliss in the 2011 season, and the number of passing touchdowns broke the record set by Lu Ke in the 2012 season, which are all new records; In addition, his thirteenth career season of 4,000 yards, his second career season of 40 passing touchdowns, the second-fewest career steals, and the third-highest career pass completion rate were undoubtedly dominant.
According to the final summary of the data of the entire league:
In the number of passing yards, Da Manning is the first, and Lu Ke is the third. Drew Bliss second.
The number of passing touchdowns, Da Manning is first, and Lu Ke is second. Drew Bliss third.
The number of interceptions, Lu Ke is the least, and Da Manning is fourth. Nick Falls is second and Alex Smith is third.
The pass success rate, Lu Ke is the first, and Da Manning is the fourth. Philip Rivers was second and Drew Bliss was third.
The average number of passing yards per game, Da Manning is the first, and Lu Ke is the third. Drew Bliss second.
If the above data is not obvious enough, then the quarterback score can be another window of peeping:
Lu Ke, the quarterback rating of the season is 122.8 points, surpassing Rodgers' 122.5 points in the 2011 season, behind Lu Ke's own 124.5 points in the 2012 season, ranking second highest in history!
Big Manning, with a season quarterback rating of 115.1, the second-highest season rating of his career, second only to the 2004 season, once again showed top passing form after returning from injury!
In addition, Big Manning joined Brady along with Lu Ke, becoming only three players in history to have a quarterback rating above 110.0 for at least two seasons. Of course, Lu Ke also became the first player in history to have a quarterback rating of more than 120.0 for two seasons.
In the end, on the season quarterback rating rankings, Lu Ke was first, and Da Manning was third. Nick Fowles second.
On the whole, it can be seen that Nick Falls and Drew Bliss also gave good performances, and both led the team to the playoffs, but in the selection of regular season MVPs, their names are rarely mentioned, because the overall performance and highlight moments are far from being comparable to Lu Ke and Big Manning-
Bliss's turnover rate remains high, and in addition to interceptions and drops, the wrong choice of key offensive grades has also caused the team to miss good opportunities repeatedly; Falls' overall control is still lacking, and his individual performance has not been able to turn into team wins, especially the offensive performance in the red zone, which is barely 10th in the league, which also limits the possibility of the Philadelphia Eagles to go further in the season.
The focus is back on the regular season MVP race.
Facing an injury-ridden attacking group, especially a fragmented receiving lineup, Lu Ke is always looking for different combinations of offensive means, and such a difficult situation really shows Lu Ke's growth and progress, which is even more impressive than last season's perfect performance.
In the end, a full eleven players in the San Francisco 49ers received Lu Ke's passes, and all eight of them made at least three or more touchdowns, and Logan Newman's touchdowns reached double digits for the third consecutive season, truly becoming the league's No. 1 close end.
The Denver Broncos have a healthy and strong receiving lineup that shows the layout and tactical prowess of the Denver Broncos, and the opposing defense will never be able to figure out his passing lines, which also makes the Denver Broncos the first team in history to score more than 600 points in a season.
At the same time, more than 13 players in the Denver Broncos have received passes from Big Manning, and nine of them have completed at least four or more touchdowns, and most incredibly, a full four players have reached double figures, easily writing a new record in the league.
Whether it's Lu Ke or Big Manning, they have all been top-notch seasons and have set many records, and the honorary title of MVP in the regular season can be awarded to any player, which also reminds people of Aaron Rodgers and Drew Bliss in the 2011 season.
However, as if "even if Briss and Rodgers are evenly matched, they still have their own tendencies in their hearts", this season is no different.
In the selection of the 2013 regular season MVP, Da Manning, who broke the league's historical record with the two statistics of season code king and season touchdown king, successfully won 33 votes, while Lu Ke, who was in a desperate situation and still showed top form for the second consecutive season, received 15 votes, and the last two votes belonged to Drew Bliss, who has maintained a top competitive level for many consecutive seasons but always missed the regular season MVP.
This also means that Peyton Manning won the honorary title of regular season MVP for the fifth time in his career - previously, he shared the record of four regular season MVPs with Brett Favre, and now he has officially surpassed his old rival and led the league alone, truly achieving an unsurpassed peak, other records may be more or less broken and surpassed, but five seasons of regular season MVP is indeed too rare and too terrifying.
But after the results of the selection came out, there was no controversy or any gossip, and there was a standing ovation inside and outside the league, sending admiration and admiration to Big Manning, who has shown a top competitive level for ten years, and deserves to be one of the top elite quarterbacks in the league now!
In comparison, Lu Ke is really only a fraction of a centimeter away from becoming the first player in history to win the regular season MVP, but if he misses it, he misses it, and there is no other way than to wait for the next opportunity, and the entire league has a choking regret.
Although Lu Ke did not win the regular season MVP, this is not the only award, his performance and strength still successfully impressed the reporters.
Offensive Player of the Year, Lu Ke, quarterback, San Francisco 49ers.
Defensive Player of the Year, Luke Kikley, lineback, Carolina Panthers.
Coach of the Year, Ron Rivera, Head Coach, Carolina Panthers.
Offensive Rookie of the Year, Eddie Recy, running back, Green Bay Packers.

Rookie of the Year, Keenan-Allen, wide receiver, San Diego Chargers.
Walter Payton Award, Charles-Tillman, cornerback, Chicago Bears.
Team Manager of the Year, John-Dorsey, Kansas Chiefs.
That's all the 2013 regular season awards, and it's the best summary of the overall trend of the regular season.
Just like in the 2011 season, the Offensive Player of the Year and the regular season MVP were awarded to two different players, and Lu Ke still won a lot of support and praise despite the big Manning setting a series of historical records, giving a clear sense of the quality of the young quarterback, and now the whole league and beyond are recognizing Lu Ke's excellence - it's time for Lu Ke to become the fifth man in the league outside of the elite four quarterbacks.
Needless to say, Lu Ke proved himself with actual performance! Whether it is Cam Newton, Russell Wilson, or Andrew Lack, it is obvious that they are still a long way from Lu Ke's performance, and among the new generation of quarterbacks, Lu Ke has deservedly become the first!
Under the guidance and leadership of Rivera, the Carolina Panthers, who had been tepid in the previous two seasons, completed a turnaround, ranking second in the league in the defensive group, and the offensive group has also become efficient and concise, and in the second half of the season, they overtook the rivals of the New Orleans Saints in the same region to win the division championship, which is undoubtedly one of the best scenery of the season.
Second-year Luke Kikley has been the cornerstone of the entire defensive team, and his tactical acumen and game awareness have become the league's top representatives, if last season's Defensive Player of the Year ** Watt represents strength, then Kikley represents intelligence, his ability gives more plasticity to the Carolina Panthers defensive group, and the lineback is widely regarded as a Hall of Fame presence.
After waiting for all the awards to be announced, and then looking back at the division of the National League, this is very interesting: the "Skywalker VS Skywalker" showdown ended with Lu Ke's strong victory, and the Carolina Panthers defense group was completely destroyed, so what does the matchup between the two teams mean in the future?
Consistently one-sided? Or is it evenly matched? What will happen to the two teams and the two players, all this is exciting and exciting, and it will be interesting to see! 8)
