Al Cameron on why he voted for Durant:

But to me, the all-star nod was based on Durant simply willing his team to victory countless times this season, particularly against the Stampeders.
A compelling number to me was his perfect performance throwing two-point conversions this year. That speaks to his poise and grace under pressure.
Now, is it fair to say that Burris might have been measured against his brilliant 2008 campaign? Undoubtedly. By any standard (including his own), Burris was not as good this year as he was last year, and much of that is due to losing receivers Ken-Yon Rambo and Ryan Thelwell.
Having said that, he was still bloody good this year, and he was statistically superior to Durant in every category.
But in terms of how much of an impact each quarterback had his respective team’s performances this year, I would suggest that Durant was more of a one-man show, while Burris had contributing performances from Joffrey Reynolds and Jeremaine Copeland this year.
By no means should this diminish what Burris did this year. He showed grace under pressure and class in some tough situations, both on and off the field.
But my vote still went to Durant, and I’ll leave it to Burris himself to back me up.
“Darian’s a good quarterback. He’s had a great season. He deserves it,” said Burris on Wednesday. “He’s got the No. 1 team in the division; Darian stepped up and made big plays for that team.”
