Depends on how you look at it. Bo has 167 catches and Malcolm has 89 catches. Obviously Bo is gonna have more yards with nearly twice as many receptions.
The question becomes why does Bo have twice as many catches as Malcolm? Is it because he's that much better or that Chattanooga is 9-7 so they had to throw more to play catch up on the scoreboard? They had to throw to Bo more out of necessity. We threw to Malcolm because he was a consistent performer. IMO it's debatable which stat or attribute is better. Six of one, 1/2 dozen of another...
I'll end it by saying that Bo Rob is a very solid WR as is Malcolm.
Agreed that we'll never know what would have happened if Malcolm had the exact number of catches as Bo Rob, but MVP is about what a player did , not what he could have done if he had been given the ball more.
I do remember earlier in the season saying how some people were saying certain running backs shouldn't be MVPs because of the gutted teams and how teams would be up by so much they'd run the ball 90% of the time. I mean if thats how people felt on one side wouldn't the other side be true as well?
