Defensive Player of the Year Predictions
-
I think Spunkonmyback DPOY is the defensive player of the year because he will tell me he is if I don't say it.
Who do you think should be the runner-up defensive player of the year then?

I would go clay matthews
Sleeper- eric wright
Eric Wright? I'm hoping that's sarcasm.
Matthews got a lot of DPOY talk early in the season, but now I would even put Harrison ahead of him.

Combines Tackles: 51
Sacks: 12.5
Passes Defended: 5
INTs: 1

Recoveries: 0
Harrison:

Get it through your little pee brain. Harrison will not win any award this year with the light that has been shown upon him for illegal hits. Do you know how bad the NFL would look if they award someone who broke all the rules? You are an idiot. Its not happening this year. Ill put my house on it.

The AP gives out the award. Not Goodell.
Matthews had a sack this past week vs Detriot where he lead with his helmet. The sack counted and he was not flagged. Players such as Chad Ochocinco, Brian Urlacher and Terrell Suggs have all defended Harrison's hits and Suggs even said it's obvious that Harrison has been "red flagged" by the league and the refs. I think the voters recognize Goodell's inconsistancies and not keep Harrison from winning it if they feel he is the best defensive player this year. But if you read the first post you would know a think Polamalu will win it. I was just saying Matthews doesn't really have a chance because even Harrison has considerably better all-around stats.

It's wishful thinking to say players with considerably better stats won't win it just because they play for a rival team.

Stats aren't everything. You know nothing. I'm done with this. Pray I don't see you in real life. Have a good one.

I know stats aren't everything. That's why I'm predicting Troy brings home the award.

Wake, Matthews, Harrison, Polamalu are the top 4 IMO. I would give the nod to Polamalu right noe.
Sleeper pick = Terrell Thomas
I'm not trying to sound homerish, but I don't think Matthews gets it unless he has a huge next 3 games. Wake is one dimensional, I don't think he has a chance.
My sleeper pick would be DeAngelo Hall. But rarely do players from non-playoff teams and horrible defenses win the award unless he is undisputably the best defender. 29th pass defense, 32nd overall on defense for the Redskins; Hall won't even get considered. If the Redskins had a top-10 defense he would be the DPOY favorite right now.

Thank you for proving me wrong and naming some other players who aren't steelers.

But the past few days after looking through stats and such I came to the conclusion Polamalu is the leader in the DPOY race and Harrison seems to be a close 2nd. That was the honest conclusion I came to, but that seemed way to homerish for me to beleive it. That's why I came here to seek opinions of others. Wake has no chance at winning and even Matthews is starting to seem like a long shot. Hall, statistically speaking, deserves strong contention for DPOY, but no corner coming from the 29th pass defense and worst overall defense will ever win the award. I just don't see any players other than Harrison, Troy and Hall that are deserving at this point. Matthews could bring himself back into the equation with a 3 huge games to finish the season, but I don't think anyone else is close enough to cacth up at this point.
I'm not trying to argue that only Steelers should be getting consideration, if there are any defenders who should be getting DPOY consideration that haven't been mentioned yet just mention them. If I disagree I will say why, but I'm not just trying to start useless arguements.

If things progress as they have............three players have been dominant of defense......in my order
Troy Polamalu.............GAME CHANGER......master impact player supreme
James Harrison...........Game CHANGER.........and targeted and screwed and that is patently obvious
Clay Matthews............Outstanding
So if the next three weeks do not bring a change those are the three who deserve real consideration

Since DeAngelo Hall is eliminated simply based on the fact he plays for the worst defense in the league, I agree the 3 plays you named are deserving, in that order, of DPOY. Is it possible for two players to tie for first place and both win the award? It would be awesome to see both Harrison and Troy bring home the award as co-winners. Being that those two were probably two of the most outspoken against Goodell this season, Goodell would certianly soil himself if they both won or even if the came in #1 and #2 in voting.

Sal Alosi will win DPOY. He hasn't missed a tackle all year.
