I feel that Peyton is the most valuable to his team...but I'm a Peyton fan so I may be a little biased.
Can't argue against Favre or Brees at all though, both are having amazing years.

Drew Brees. Without a question. That man is a freak of nature. No disrespect to the other two, but I think Brees gets it.

My rankings as an unbiased die-hard NFL fan with no team affiliations:
1. Peyton Manning: the only argument against him at this point is that he always does this. "This" being run through the regular season racking upyards and touchdowns and wins like few others in NFL history. Even ignoring the invalidity of this argument, Manning is doing so much more with so much lessthis year. His running game has been fairly non-existent. His second wide receiver has been out all year. His coach is in the NBC studio. He has beenconstantly let down by receivers other than Clark and Wayne. Also, if the Colts had, say, Matt Schaub or another average to decent NFL QB starting in hisplace, they'd be 7-4 at best.
2. Brett Favre: might be undefeated were it not for a shady interference call, so the difference in records is fairly irrelevant to me. That said, I think theonly reason to place him above Manning would be that he has defied REALLY low expectations. That shouldn't matter. That said, he has played nearly flawlessfootball and has made stars out of an unknown tight-end and a fairly nameless wide receiver. The fact that he has AD running behind him is another reason thathe falls under Manning to me, as well as the fact that Manning has single-handedly beat teams more than Favre.
3. Drew Brees: he has played very impressive football, but I think he has a much better system in which to throw the ball than Manning or Favre. When I watchhim, I get the impression that Sean Payton is doing much of the work in that offense, whereas Manning and Favre seem to be making something out of nothing muchof the time. The same way AD brings down Favre because Manning has so much less, Payton brings down Brees because Favre and Manning both have such less qualitycoaching and play-calling. Brees also has more weaponry to work with than Manning, although this might be a close call.
4. Chris Johnson: he is a distant fourth here, and I really mention him out of obligation because he's on pace to break 2K. If they go 10-0 to finish theseason and sneak into the playoffs and CJ puts up 2K+, on the other hand, then that's a different conversation. Don't know if he'd win it,especially if Brees and/or Manning go undefeated and VY continues to play well, but he would definitely deserve a look.

I would assume if it's pretty close at the end of the season, it will go to Favre by default. Even though I'm the biggest Favre fan there is, it wouldbe weak if they gave him the MVP over Brees or Manning if one of them goes undefeated.

The only way he will even get a vote is if they finish 9-7 or 10-6. I am not trying to diminish what he has done, but he simply does not belong in theconversation of the 3 QBs who have a grand total of 1 loss at this point.

It's a 3 man race
Peyton
drew
Brett
All 3 are deserving but as of right now Peyton is 1 to me. Then favre then brees
they'll prob give it to favre though. They love him too much, and what a story it would be

i think either of those 3 QBs would do well in the vikings situation. but farve on the saints or colts and i dont think either team goes undefeated.
i'd give it to brees.

It's a 3 way tie...Favre, Manning, and Brees...
Chris Johnson won't be MVP, although he's having a terrific season. Tennessee should be very thankful for him though..
But if I have to pick...I'd take...
Both Favre and Manning are having great years...but Manning is doing what he's expected to do...which is nothing to snicker at..and Farve..although 40years old..has a great team around him...Brees has catapulted the Saints since joining the team and is playing as well as any of those 2 guysmentioned....gotta give it to Drew this year.
