What? Kevin Jones hasn't been the starting RB in DET for over three years now. Kevin Smith last year was. Believe me when I say that absent injury Best will be the starting RB in DET. Does that mean he will be rookie of the year... doubt it. But very good chance that Ryan Matthews is though.
For the record, since the awards inception in 1967 there has been 43 offensive ROY and guess what 31 of those 43 awards went to RB. As a matter of fact just a few year ago it was four straight RBs to win the award. Just because in the past two or three years a RB hasn't won award I don't call that a trend frankly looking at past history it would be more likely that the RB is over due.

Nice write-up !!!!
However, I'm not sold on Packers having a great year for a number of reasons.
They led the league with a +22 TO differential and got 30 interceptions which led the league.
Highly unlikely they duplicate that, a simple regression to the mean and they may not have as good a record as last season.
They were absolutely ridiculious on 3rd downs last season, posting a 70.8 according to FO, the 2cd best team was Titans with a 47.5.
Again, a regression to the mean would indicate they will not get all those 1st downs and will be punting more, combined that with fewer TO and the Packers may not live-up to expectations this season.
