Most Valuable Chief

This marks the last of my award posts that I have been doing. I had been keeping up with them last week when they were being announced each day prior to the Super Bowl, but I sort of fell behind.

At the end of last week, quarterback Tom Brady of the New England Patriots won the Associated Press NFL Most Valuable Player. He was the first unanimous selection for the award in the history of the award.

Well, Tom Brady might have been the MVP of the league, but the MVP of the Chiefs is none other than Jamaal Charles.

Charles finished the season with the second most rushing yards in the league (1,467) and the second highest carry average in NFL history (6.38). Arian Foster, the league's leading rusher, had about 150 more rushing yards but almost 100 more carries. This shows you just how electrifying and effective Charles was.

He followed a breakout game against the Broncos in the last game of 2009 with a breakout season in 2010. He was voted to the Pro Bowl and first-team All Pro.

Charles was definitely the MVP of the Chiefs this season and hopefully can continue this same kind of production next year as well.
