Well have to see how the weekend spells out but after Thursday we saw 3 of the guys in the hunt.
Charles Woodson put another great performance up vs the lions covering Megatron, gave up 1 TD on a VERY short field as a result of a fumble and penalty butmade up for it big time with 2 INT's, 1 FF, 1 FR, 1 TD, 6 tackles, and 1 sack. Giving him a total of 54 tackles, 2 sacks, 4 FF, 7 INT's and 2 TD's.
Elvis Dumervil added 2 sacks to his total bringing him to 14 on the year while also forcing an Eli Manning fumble. Unfortunately he seems to be a one trickpony as his sacks are the only real thing he excels at, hes not a force in coverage or run support.
Jay Ratliff - The numbers arent shiny for Jay as they are for other candidates but his contribution is visible, hes been blowing up centers and guards all yearlong and has recorded 4 sacks from the NT position as well as 31 tackles. Most likely will not win because of #'s and position.
Jared Allen will be in the conversation but I believe hell be 3-5th in the running, 7.5 of his sacks have come against the Packers who have allowed 43 sacksthrough 11 games. He has been somewhat inconsistant getting after the QB.
Darren Sharper started the year on fire with 7 INT's and 3 TD's but has been quiet in the last 3 weeks.
I probably have forgot 1 or 2 so post who else is in the running and who you would vote for at this point.
