4. Peyton Manning

Surprise, surprise. Manning is again putting his name in the hat for the MVP.

Manning’s season has somewhat been brushed aside because Denver is coming off a Week 3 loss in overtime to the Seattle Seahawks, and now we’re not paying attention to the fact he leads one of the best offenses in football, owns a 9:1 touchdown to interception ratio and will probably wind up leading his team to 12 or 13 wins.

Through three games, Manning’s yardage total is down. I think the early bye week will help him and the offense, though, as they find a way to jump-start the running game to set up bigger plays down the field.
