A vote for Kevin Kolb after Cards' 4-0 start
- ESPN.com
The NFC West has produced four recent NFC players of the week, a 9-3 record outside the division, an 8-0 home record, an NFL-high 11 victories and one of three teams with a 4-0 record.
Surely someone from the division, and specifically from the unbeaten Arizona Cardinals, should receive a mention in the league MVP race.
We have a nomination: quarterback Kevin Kolb, whose box-score stats line up quite nicely with those of Aaron Rodgers, listed third on the MVP Watch.
Kolb led a fourth-quarter comeback victory against Seattle in Week 1. He did it again, this time with even greater flair, during a 24-21 overtime victory over the Miami Dolphins in Week 4. Between those games, Kolb generally avoided mistakes while the Cardinals' defense dominated against New England and Philadelphia.
We could easily harness that body of work into a redemptive narrative, suggesting Kolb has finally arrived after learning from his mistakes and enjoying better luck with injuries. I'd like to see more.
