2007 NFL half-season awards

I was hoping you guys would give your own awards instead of just picking one line from my post to bash...

If my list differed significantly from yours I would do this but I think it's pretty good for the most part. I'll just make a case for Sean Taylor again. He's way improved from the last couple years, the same athletic ability but much more disciplined this year, and it's made a huge difference.

I'll also make a case for London Fletcher at ILB. Last year the Redskins defense was terrible (31st in YPG, 32nd in YPP, 27th in PPG, 32nd in turnovers), and that was with a much better offense to help them out. He's been the biggest upgrade this year and I think the only reason that defense isn't in the bottom half of the NFL again. He's all over the field involved in almost every play, run or pass. 67 tackles, 7 PDs, 2 INTs and a fumble recovery through 7 games.

That's a poor reason to argue for someone. DUCY?

Sanders might be the best choice for DPOY, I don't know. But every time I see Tennessee play, Haynesworth is just freaking dominant.

Rbs are something like this
Brown > Westbrook > Peterson > Barber > Addai > Tomlinson
Projecting for the rest of the season it is probably
Tomlinson > Westbrook > Barber > Peterson > Addai > Brown
Not positive for Tomlinson on the last one and I could be overrating him. Regardless he is prob better than AP and Addai

Derek Anderson needs to win something :-P

Offensive line getting a lot of love here imo.

It's not that I don't appreciate the importance of offensive line play, I just don't consider myself qualified to judge who the best guys are, and I really hate when people spout off on things they don't know about so I don't do it. I can tell which teams have the best O-lines but sometimes it's hard to single out different players on the same line.

Pats O-Line. All of them. I feel like Brady gets an average of 30 seconds to find an open receiver.

I respect that attitude. It kills me when people pretend to pay attention to individual OLmen.

Nice list - I'd definitely go w/ Addai over Barber.

Mentioned already: Westbrook, Taylor

Here's a few that haven't been mentioned that I think deserve strong consideration:
