I mean who else would you give it to?

That's my point exactly. There is no need for us, or the media, to feel like there is an obligation to give it to anyone this early in the season. In addition, there's especially no need to name a winner on a week by week basis based upon whoever happens to have a good game that particular week. Up until the past few years, the media would name a number of contenders during the preseason and follow them during the season, adding other contenders as needed. But lately, early in the season the media has made one of the front runners the "winner" while there's still MUCH football to be played. I'd like to see them let the season play itself out.
