  1. Nope, probably Aidan Hutchinson or TJ Watt because safeties don’t really win that award. Great start though.

  2. The current front runner should be Dexter Lawrence but X is in the conversation at the moment.

  3. In 2019 Stephen Gilmore won the DPOY award with 6ints and 2 tds.

    In 2010 Troy Polamalu won while having only 7 and 1 td. He didn’t lead the league in that category either.

    In 2009 Charles Woodson won the award with 9.

    Obviously it’s not the be all end all of a DPOY because in 2021 Stephen Diggs had 11 and in 2020 Xavien Howard had 10.

    XM has the added benefit of being out there with his name first. Getting in peoples minds and being a part of the early narrative.

  4. The team defense needs to be better for him to have a shot. Voters like the DPOY to be the leader of a great defense.

    An amazing player on a mediocre/bad defense won’t get as many votes.

  5. If Hutchinson wasn’t haven’t such a crazy year I’d say yea. 23 QB pressures already
