Hendrickson, had game changing plays, as he should've against a back up T

Burrow for the get right game. He stood in there and made some great throws while under pressure a few times early on, and also did well extending some plays when he had too. Looked like vintage Burrow out there.
Could have easily went to Hendrickson as well. He was a beast. I’ll give Burrow the edge for getting us up early though and allowing Trey to start teeing off on the Jets OL.

I gave it to Burrow for moving a lot better in the pocket, and also throwing the ball away a few times. If it was a checkbox I'd split it with Perine.

I’d be willing to give a game ball to all the names on the list.They all played a spectacular game.But, I thought Trey Hendrickson just had a huge impact on the outcome of this game.

I gave it to Hendrickson. He was the DE we were just complaining about not having after watching the big name ends for the opposing teams the last two weeks.
Awuzie had a great game.
Burrow took steps forward (literally and figuratively), but the Offense stalled the second half so I'm giving it to a D player.

Perine gets garbage time yards and that's deserving of a game ball?

Killing the clock while keeping possession is an important part of the game.

I agree he doesn’t deserve the game ball but those were not “garbage time” yards because he was moving the chains and icing the game. They took a ton of time off of the clock so he had an impact on the outcome of that game.

2 things:
You're welcome to vote for who you wish
over 10 minutes left in a 2-score game is not garbage time.

I voted Burrow. We needed a solid game from him and he delivered.
Good team win a lot of people deserving of a game ball today. The defense deserves huge props. I really thought we would give up more than we did today. Wilson missing some time helped I'm sure.

Hendrickson. It was a 3rd string LT, but he still capitalized on the matchup and made big plays and not everybody does.

Hendrickson with an honorable mention to Perine. Perine caught a TD pass but put the game away in the 4th with his running

You conveniently didn’t mention his TD reception.
