  • Yea, he sure looked a "step above" Trombley and the devils when he scored so often, and stopped so many touchdowns from happening.

    42-6 Red Devils, Just saying.

  • He was a great player. However, he had no effect on the Milan game in which GI was dominated as Milan didn't have to run a single play outside the tackles. GI only scored in the late 4th as Milan put their back ups in. The kid for Jefferson was hands down the best player in the league.

  • Did you watch the highlight video for Humphrey? I was fortunate enough to see GI and Jefferson three times each. Trombley was a great player, but Humphrey was a step above.

    • Look Chris I get it, spread the love. I did watch the highlights and yes Trombley dropped Humphry for multiple losses. I also heard from offensive coordinators who planned games around Trombley and still had no luck. Humphry has been named and he is a fine player. Congrats..

  • I have an idea Chris!! Don't be predictable. Enough with the same ole same ole. Offensive stats are only as good as the men in the trenches. Why not name MVP a linemen? Take Trombley for instance, he dominated both sides of the ball. Teams avoided him like the plague and on offense is motor was outstanding accounting for yards downfield. Look at the film. Trombley knew what every player on the field was doing., he knew the game better than anyone!!! Most dominate player of the year bar none!!

  • Not a bad choice. I thought it would have been #47 from SMCC. He was pretty good too. Congrats to Mr. Trombley, well deserved.
