Why should Griffin win anything – QB’s pass the ball and Griffin can’t hit anything much deeper than 30 yards with any accuracy. All that chump does is run because he can’t read defenses and has no leadership skills whatsoever. His 2 minute drills are some of the best comedy you’ve ever seen – somehow he takes 6 minutes to run ‘em.

I’m a Redskin fan and I know what I say pisses off other Redskin fans. But after being blind since 1970 with my Redskins, I’m not drinking that koolaid anymore. This team sucks and Griffin is a bust of epic proportions. He is a loser and slow minded.

by no means am i writing that martin isnt deserving but in any case like this i think sometimes the people voting for player/rookie of the week month etc. take the approach of well that guy won it last time its close lets give it to the other guy

Come on all fans, can’t we just get along.

I’m sure all the rookies will tell you – “It was an honor just to be nominated”

That said – Go Muscle Hamster Go!

When will Andrew Luck get an award, or at least be part of the conversation? Still happy with that draft Irsay?

and after hearing that, most skins fans are on suicide watch!!

Why are you so upset??? Did someone pee in your cheerios???? I think the real problem is that Andrew Luck was suppose to be one of the BEST QB EVER to come out of the draft; and is being compared to other normal rookies. As a Colts fan I would be upset too. My one of a kind guy is actually one of the same!

Alfred has a total of 752 yards this year, most coming on the ground. Martin has 767 yards. When you add in recieving yards Martin is out-gaining Alfred Morris. Not questioning Morris’ running ability – just questioning your logic. Plus Martin has had 20+ fewer carries so far (bye week)

may not have out-rushed Morris but, “He led all NFL players in October with 155.7 yards from scrimmage per game.”

Don’t be tools skins fans.

Martin led ALL NFL skill players in yards from scrimmage in October with 155 ypg. This is not a rushing award, but a offensive award. That means receiving yards count as well.

Martin deserves this reward.

Thank you thereisalwaysnextyear…I dont understand how these professional writers make statements without doing there homework…by homework I mean actually watch the games before commenting…

PFT should let the writers only cover specific teams and mandate that they actually WATCH all the games before commenting…

clw1906…EXACTLY…its a classic well he deserves it but we got to recognize someone else…

I mean how many MVPs should Micheal Jordan really have??!!!??

Morris started with a splash, but Martin has been better in the last month, which is the relevant part. Martin has had three 30+ yard TDs in the last two games and has gotten progressively better every week.

Griffin hardly had a bad month, but didn’t play well in last week’s loss to the Steelers

This isn’t an accurate statement. Griffin played well, but his WRs did not. 10 drops! The passes were on the money. He would have had another 70% completion game if his wideouts could catch a cold.

I don’t see how, but then again, I’m a biased Redskins fan.
