Default Re: LT AP\'s MVP

You bring up some good points, in a tasteful way. Thanks.

I do have a question though, why does everyone say touchdowns are overrated? I really don't understand that. If touchdowns are overrated, than are kickers the most underrated players of all time?

Also, once inside the 10 yard line or so, the difficulty of throwing a TD pass goes up, because the field is is now only 60 feet long. In this instance, an RB's relative value goes up, as the difficulty of an RB to pick up a typical 4 yards per touch doesn't change much when the field is shortened this drastically.

If you can prove to me why touchdowns are overrated, then I suppose this point is negated.
