For a moment there, it looked like that MVP could have gone to Jason Myers. In fact, people seem pretty upset he didn't win.

But try not to worry too much. The Seattle Seahawks are Super Bowl champions, and we'll give the man his credit right here!
For the second time in the same season, Myers has set a new NFL record.

I'm just kidding.

For the THIRD time in a season, Myers has set a new NFL record! One for total season points, one for most field goals in a Super Bowl. This all after his six-kick game against the Indianapolis Colts set a new regular season record.

Jason Myers has become the first player in NFL history to score 200+ points in a single season, including playoffs

On the one hand, Super Bowl MVP Kicker would have been objectively memorable.

On the other, it adds to a franchise resume that's frankly getting ridiculous. On top of shutting out the New England Patriots for 3 quarters, outscoring opponents by 55 this offseason, they've got the best special teams unit in the NFL by a mile. This might actually be the most balanced team ever.

Jason Myers made all five of his field goals, breaking the previous Super Bowl record of four held by only five players. The points culminated in 206 this year for Myers, the most prolific scorer of all time.

Hey - the even/odd curse thing is gone! He's good all the time now.

Sorry for the snub, Mr. Myers. Way to singlehandedly outscore the Patriots in the Super Bowl, something I hope you tell your kids into eternity.
