And Ryan? Again, where would he be without his running game? Maybe if he'd won last week I'd give that suggestion more credence. The kid is playing great, but MVP? Nope.

I'd rank Campbell above both of them, even with his fumbles and I don;t think he's close to MVP.

My top 5 so far:

Portis
Brees
Joey Porter
Fitzgerald
Haynesworth

Maybe Rivers if SD can start winning again - the losses aren't his fault.
Pretty solid list. I'd put Cambpell in there somewhere. Larry Fitzgerald doesn't even lead his own team in TD catches, so I have hard time giving it to him, although he is a fantastic player. Haynesworth is just a freak.

Joey Porter has 10.5 sacks in 7 games. That's nuts. Where the hell did he come from this year? Talk about a renaissance. If he keeps up that pace he'll set the single season record with 24 sacks. At the very least deserving of defensive MVP.
