Most NFL watchers have reduced the 2016 MVP race to two quarterbacks: Tom Brady and Matt Ryan.
I did a mental coin flip and came up with Ryan.
Ryan led the Falcons to an 11-5 record and NFC South title. Without him, they’re likely not even a playoff team.
Ryan completed 69.9 percent of his passes for 4,944 yards, 38 TDs and 7 INTs.
Tom Brady led the Patriots to an 11-1 mark. That was after New England went 3-1 while Tommy sat out his Deflate-gate season-opening suspension.
Brady completed 67.4 percent for 3,554 yards, 28 TDs and 2 INTs.
Should any suspension play a factor in voting? Maybe, though the inflation of balls is a gridiron misdemeanor, at best.
As for talk MVP should be awarded after the postseason, no. There are two seasons -- the first results in awards, the second results in a Super Bowl appearance and victory.
I'm sure Brady would prefer Super Bowl MVP this time around, anyway.

A 105-year-old Frenchman set a world record in the 105-plus age category by riding 92 laps, 14.01 miles in one hour.
I'm guessing that record will be harder to break than Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak.

Hey Derek Jeter …
Your wife Hannah is gorgeous, beautiful, awesome, hot, sexy.
Does that get me a dinner?
