MVP or Bust You watch your favorite player all year long and now he is in the MVP race, you are all hyped, but what if he didn't win? Now that's why I'm here to explain you why Aaron Rodgers is the number one candidate for the NFL MVP. So, first I will be telling you his stats from the 2016 regular season.
