MBC Awards

by chetty12 | 10 years ago | 3 Comments

So Madden has it's own  awards and that's great, but as we know Madden gets stuff wrong all the time and since people wanted to keep better track of records/awards, I figured we should just do our own voting to see who we as a community think should be the winners.

Attached will be a poll to determine who the winner of the following awards will be; Most Valuable Player, Coach Of the Year, Offensive Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, Special Teams Player of the Year, Offensive Rookie of the Year and Defensive Rookie of the Year. For MVP, I took the top 6 canidates in game and put them in the poll. For Coach of the Year, I took the top 5 and put them in the poll and left the sixth spot for an other position. Please don't just fill it with your own coach. For the rest of the awards(with 3 exceptions, which were Demaryius in OPOY and Jeff Janis and Gregg Robinson in OROY), I took the top 3 in game canidates from each conference and put them in one poll.

Below I will be posting a break down of each players statistical accomplishments throughout the season. I urge everyone to use the actual facts and what you remember from your games to decide, remember this doesn't really work if everyone just votes their own players.
