Below is New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who was selected to his ninth Pro Bowl in 2013
Skip Bayless of ESPN brought up the argument that Tom Brady deserves MVP, not based on his underwhelming statistics but rather the fact that he has been a huge part of winning the division and getting the team in position to win twelve games without having a lot of talent to work with due to injuries. Brady has had to play without his three favorite targets from last year, Wes Welker, Aaron Hernandez and most importantly Rob Gronkowski. For more on Gronkowski's impact here are some stats.
Stats are listed first with Gronk, then without
