Fans Pick Adrian Peterson, RG3 for NFL Awards
NFL Fans are divided as to who the Most Valuable Player should be this season, but the choice for Offensive Rookie of the Year is clear.
Adrian Peterson of the Minnesota Vikings is the MVP pick for 23% of football fans. A Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that nearly as many (18%) pick Peyton Manning of the Denver Broncos. Robert Griffin III—known as RG3—is third with 10% thinking he should win the MVP award. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
