Damn, save some some awards for the rest of the guys mike .
Zeke felt bad and wanted others to have a shot at MVP and best NFC HB. Next year he’s taking it back!
Bears rookies got snubbed BIG TIME!!! Defensive Back Raysean Wilkerson played great on defense while with five INTs and almost reaching 1000 yards on kick returns. Will Patton had 9.5 sacks and I am sure he led all rookies in that category.
