His numbers would have been great 5 years ago, but as he's improving, others are improving more and setting the bar higher. It's the same story i was telling in '13. If he raises the comp% and cuts down on the INTs, his overall rating would go up exponentially. Five years later, they still haven't. 

The 4th quarter comebacks are great and show his ability to focus and perform but they might not be necessary if he plays better in quarters 1-3. 

I'd go with Boyd for MVP. He's adjusted on broken plays, kills on 3rd down and made the most of his opportunity. 

4 INTs were tipped balls.....two were a WR quitting on routes though.  Cam Newton gets MVP praise (actually won it) with sub 60% completion rate.  We've dropped some balls too.  The eye test tells me that this season, the stats haven't told the whole story.  He's played very well in the 1st half of the games with the exception of Miami and KC.  

The QB is also doing better on those broken plays......
