Blake - Russell Wilson to MD Jennings to Golden Tate
Zach - Fail Mary
Game of the Year
Matt - Packers at Vikings - Week 17 - So much on the line for both teams, Peterson and the NFC Playoff picture. They didn't disappoint.

Painter - Green Bay at Seattle (good battle despite the bad officiating both ways)
Offensive Player of the Year
Wendt - Peyton Manning - Broncos
Painter - Adrian Peterson - Vikings
Blake - Peyton Manning - Broncos

Special Teams Player of the Year

Wendt - Blair Walsh
Painter - Blair Walsh
Painter - Blair Walsh
Blake - None have really stuck out. Maybe Greg Zuerlein
Zach - Jacoby Jones - Texans
Rookie of the Year
Matt - RG3 - Redskins - A pure spark to that team and organization. Luck and Wilson are right there too.
Wendt - Andrew Luck - Colts
Painter - hate to go with a QB but RGIII (Casey Hayward would be my vote for defensive rookie)
Blake - Tough one, but I'll go Andrew Luck. Can't go wrong with RG3 either.
Zach - Andrew Luck - Colts
Coach of the Year
Matt - The Colts Staff - What they've done with a team that sucked last year, a rookie QB is amazing.
Wendt - Mike Shanahan - Redskins
Painter - Bruce Arians - Colts
Blake - As much as it pains me to say it, Pete Carroll. Bruce Arians 2nd if you consider him eligible.
Zach - Entire Colts Staff
Most Impactful Injury
Matt - Alex Smith getting knocked out and thus getting Wally Pipped by Collin Kaepernick.
Wendt - Kevin Kolb - Cardinals
Painter - Brian Urlacher (the Bears win at least 1 more game and make the playoffs with him)
Blake - For once I'm not sure there has been a defining one, especially coming off the blood bath that was last year. Maybe Ray Lewis or Brian Urlacher
Zach - Alex Smith's concussion leading to Collin Kaepernick starting
Biggest Surprise
Matt - Seattle's offensive explosion. The Bengals with Andy Dalton in back to back playoffs. The Bears go from 7-1 to home for the playoffs at 10-6.
Wendt - Indianpolis Colts
Painter - Minnesota Vikings making the playoffs
Blake - In some order; Saints suck, Colts are decent, Peyton Manning is Peyton Manning, the Seahawks are pretty darn good.
Zach - Adrian Peterson resurgent return post-injury
Biggest Disappointment
Matt - The Steelers and Giants not making the post season, Philly's collapse too.
Wendt - Kansas City Chiefs
Painter - Tie: Arizona Cardinals and Chicago Bears (hot starts, cold finishes)
Blake - Again, in some order; the Saints suck, and so do the Giants and the Steelers
Zach - New Orleans Saints season
