If the MVP award isn't for the quarterback, but for the best players, the league's most underrated big man will pick up the honors he won in February.
The MVP has never been awarded to the offensive front, and probably never will be, as this is the most overlooked group of people in the game. But if there's one player on the offensive front who can be enjoyed by even the most elementary fans, it's Trent Williams, the 49ers' left-footer nicknamed the "Silverback Gorilla."
Williams' sheer size need not be repeated, but even more frightening is that he moves like a fast mid-ranger:
It only takes two successful forces to overturn the corner guard:
Quickly hit the second layer of the stun linebacker:
Clear obstacles for teammates as a leader:
Even the defensive front line is put down with a little force?
With two games remaining, Williams' PFF rating this season is close to a full score of 98.3, and the 6'5" 320 pounds is undoubtedly the highest rating of all players in the league, even since 2006, which is also the first single season rating in history.
Experts at the PFF website think he will win MVP or OPOY, which unfortunately is almost impossible to come true. One of Williams' "noble" career goals was to "win awards that are difficult to win on the offensive front." ”
His victory contribution this season is 0.62% higher than the player with the second highest interceptor. From this perspective, Brady's 4.29 is only 14.7% higher than herbert, the second-highest quarterback, and it can be seen that Williams' influence this season is far more than that of the players in the same position.
Williams' dominance this season is unprecedented, with a pavement cover score of 98.6 leading all the league's offensive fronts and a pass protection score sixth, all at the age of 33.
The top offensive fronts always maintain enough athletic lifespan, such as the Ram's Whitworth in the picture above, which is in his forties and a living dragon. Whitworth became the first player in history to start at the left side at the age of 40, and Williams, who was 38 when his contract expired five years later, believes that as long as there are no serious injuries, it is no problem to play until the age of 40.
It's shocking that Williams has never been selected for the season one (Ap News Agency). He was selected for the second team of the season in 2015 and twice in the first team of the season in the PFF awards. So far, though, he has been snubbed by the Associated Press.
Williams is the league leader in a PFF score of 95.6 over the past decade, and if it is from 06 to the present, his career rating of 94.2 ranks third. Williams was the top-rated left-cut forward in '13, '16 and last season. In addition to the "lofty goals" he mentioned, Williams clearly wants to win the Super Bowl and advance once a season at the end of his career.
For an attacking frontline, these awards are crucial for a career. Williams earned respect by being selected for the Pro Bowl nine times, but he knows the offensive front is a position that is difficult to quantify.
"Quarterbacks can pass five thousand yards a season, which is visible data, and even if we can play MVP level, the data is likely to be zero."
Williams' fate should change this season, though. Although Williams had better road cover and more highlight moments, only 1 tackle, 6 impacts and 9 hasty passes were released in pass protection. Pass protection success rate ranks ninth in interception.
Despite having a historical rating, williams herself doesn't necessarily feel that this season has been better or any different. In his personal documentary, we can see that in the offseason, he runs a real estate business, and in order to take care of the business during the day, Williams often starts to go to the gym at two or three o'clock in the morning to start practicing, and the whole world is still asleep.
"I can have the whole gym on my own, and when most of the people are sleeping, the undisturbed environment makes me more focused."
In 2019, Williams underwent multiple surgeries to remove a cancerous tumor in his head, which was a painful test, and after returning to Washington, D.C. due to the discomfort of wearing a helmet after surgery, he failed to pass the medical examination and was listed for example for the rest of the season, but optimistic that he thought that a full season of rest allowed him to return to better competitive form. Last offseason, the 49ers exchanged it for cheap chips in three+ five rounds and signed a record six-year, $138 million super-renewal this spring.
Williams replaced retired Joe Starley on the blind side and performed flawlessly. In the first season in PFF scoring history, if Williams can't bring the MVP or OPOY home, it doesn't matter, at least he can get the season he wants, which should be no suspense.
