I'd like to provide an opposing viewpoint on end of season awards. I wouldn't want to see people putting together teams just to boost one player's stats and I'm worried that's what would happen if that change got implemented. I'd like to see the focus stay on winning games.
I don't understand what you mean by this.
Unless you're going for the most sacks allowed or something, how would this be a detriment to your goal of winning? If I want to be a primarily run based team, odds are I'd build my offense the same as if I was going for the rushing title.
As JDB has said, the stats are there. Everyone knows who the leading rusher is, for example. I don't see how having an award for it, or MVP, or anything else, would be a negative.
I'm not trying to dismiss your opinion on this. I'm genuinely curious as to why you think this will have a negative impact on the game.
