Its because the team isn't really contending. Gb without Rodgers is like 4-10 right now, so he is incredibly valuable. Watt maybe keeps them kinda relevant but not really. Its the MVP award not the most athletic or best effort award, and most people judge value by who makes you win.There aren't really any amazing offensive performances this year. If Watt doesn't win it this year, of all years, they may as well just call it Offensive Player of the Year Part Deux award.
