Okay. I think that's silly and has no bearing on the award.
I also think it's bad to vote COY based on "expectations". I grant that many voters DO that, but I don't think that they should. Expectations are meaningless and very often misguided. Injuries are a more concrete basis for voting COY that I can get behind.
This isn't to say Zac wasn't deserving or even that he was less deserving. I think there are some schematic and statistical matters that make his case a strong one (e.g. constantly winning second halves, managing the struggles of the OL, calling a top offense, etc).
