When are the 2024 NFL Awards? MVP, coach of the year, favorites, time and date
The NFL season has been full of surprises and twists. Fans and analysts are eagerly anticipating the announcement of the winners of various NFL awards. As the regular season ends, look at the contenders and favorites for some of the prestigious honors.
The 2024 NFL Honors ceremony is scheduled for Thursday, February 8, 2024, at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT. The ceremony will be held at the Resorts World Theatre in Las Vegas, the same venue as the 2024 Super Bowl.
MVP Race: Lamar Jackson’s All-Season Performance
The Most Valuable Player (MVP) title race has been fascinating, with Lamar Jackson’s outstanding performances stealing the spotlight. The dynamic quarterback’s exceptional playmaking skills have pushed him to the forefront of the discussion, leaving little room for debate. Jackson’s staggering statistics, which include 3,600 passing yards, 24 passing touchdowns, and 821 rushing yards with five touchdowns, showcase his versatility and impact on the field.
A significant moment in Jackson’s MVP campaign occurred on August 10, even before the season began. He made a bold prediction, proving more accurate with each Game played. As the Ravens secured a first-round bye, Jackson’s resilience and iNFLuence on the team made a compelling case for him to win the MVP trophy.
Offensive Player of the Year: CMC vs. Tyreek Hill
The comPetition for the Offensive Player of the Year award is heating up between Christian McCaffrey, also known as CMC and Tyreek Hill. Tyreek has put up some exceptional numbers this season, with 112 catches, 1,700 yards, and 12 touchdowns, making his performance spectacular. However, some argue that CMC’s dual-threat capabilities should not be overlooked. He has rushed for 1,459 yards, scored 14 rushing touchdowns, and has 564 receiving yards with seven receiving touchdowns, making him a deserving candidate for the award.
While Tyreek’s season has been impressive, many believe that CMC’s performance has had a more significant impact on the game. Despite the statistical brilliance of Tyreek, CMC’s all-encompassing influence on the San Francisco 49ers offense is hard to ignore.
Defensive Player of the Year: Miles Garrett’s Dominance
Miles Garrett is a top contender for the Defensive Player of the Year award. He has demonstrated dominance with 42 tackles, 14 sacks, and four forced fumbles. While TJ Watt has impressive stats with 17 sacks, many argue that Garrett’s impact on the Cleveland Browns’ defense is unmatched.
Garrett can single-handedly turn games in the Browns’ favor and has shown outstanding leadership on the team headed to the playoffs. This makes him a strong candidate for the prestigious award. The conversation surrounding this award recognizes a player’s value to the team, making Garrett’s case even more compelling.
Rookie of the Year: CJ Stroud vs. Puka
In the Rookie of the Year race, there is a contrast between CJ Stroud’s strong performance and Puka’s potential record-breaking season. Stroud’s impressive stats make him an excellent rookie quarterback, but he faces tough competition from Puka, who is on the verge of breaking a long-standing record.
Although Stroud’s impact is commendable, the narrative leans towards Puka’s historic achievement, especially for his 1,486 yards this season. The anticipation around Puka’s potential record-breaking season makes him a strong candidate for Rookie of the Year.
Comeback Player of the Year: Stafford vs. Flacco
Matthew Stafford and Joe Flacco are seen as the top contenders for the Comeback Player of the Year award. Stafford’s impressive comeback with the Los Angeles Rams, leading them to a successful season, contrasts with Flacco’s unexpected brilliance after being seemingly underrated.
However, Damar Hamlin’s candidacy for the award has raised questions about the selection criteria. Despite this, Flacco’s remarkable comeback and ability to step up in unexpected situations make him a standout choice for the award.
Coach of the Year: Stefansky’s Resilience
Kevin Stefansky has displayed exceptional coaching skills this season despite numerous injuries and challenges. He has successfully led the Cleveland Browns through tough times, which included frequent quarterback changes and significant injuries. Stefansky’s resilience and strategic acumen have earned him a strong contender for the Coach of the Year award.
Although other coaches, such as Shane Steichen and Dan Campbell, have also shown impressive performances, Stefansky’s ability to navigate the Browns through turbulent times has cemented his position as the front-runner for the highly coveted award.
