It's always funny that towards week 14 you have players and teams playing to get someone the MVP.

I feel so bad for Brees in that regard. Dude had some of the best QB seasons ever statistically, but it always came in years when there was some all-time QB performance elsewhere. His 2011 season is probably the best QB non-MVP season in NFL history. Plenty of MVP winners in other years that didn't come close to his performance that season.
That said, I'm sure he's content with the Super Bowl MVP he won. Still doesn't feel right he was never regular season MVP.
