The NFL has decided to not even hold a vote on it. The 37 yard scamper on the very last play of the first half today vs. Baltimore (duplicate of the game winner vs the Texans?) clinched it for me. The fact that we're discussing scenarios in which the Titans can make the playoffs in the last week of the season automatically gives him the award. 8-2 as a starter in the last 10 games (one of which was a game in which he put up 26 on Baltimore's defense and lost by 1)
Titans indeed are still in the playoff hunt. They need Cincy and Denver to lose and KC to beat Jville.
