With most teams having played a quarter of their season, I will now feature my quarterly awards.
MVP
Peyton Manning (QB, Indy): Manning has thrown for at least 300 yards in the first four games. He's also tied for most touchdowns with 9. By the way his Colts without Marvin Harrison, Anthony Gonzalez, Bob Sanders, and a running game are 4-0. 'Nuff Said.
Coach of the Year
Josh McDaniels (Denver): No one foresaw a 4-0 start for the Broncos. No one but Josh McDaniels that is. After an offseason filled with change and distraction they couldn't be happier with the second youngest coach in the league four games into the season.
Surprise of the Year
Tennessee Titans: Currently last year's best record couldn't be worse. Kerry Collins is showing his age, and the defense looks like swiss cheese without Albert Haynesworth. Fisher may need to call on the Back-up QB to stir things up a bit and maybe salvage an already forgettable season.
Rookie of the Year
Mark Sanchez (QB, NYJ): The stats aren't perfect. But he's off to a 3-1 start. He's also the only QB to ever begin his career 3-0.
Defensive Player of the Year
This one's a split:
Elvis Dumervil (OLB, Denver) and Antwan Odom (DE, Cincinatti): They lead the league with 8 sacks, and are both a huge factor their defenses are dominating this year. Both players blew up in week two, with four and five sacks rescpectively.

I think that Suprises of the Year could be a tie between Tenn, Saints D, and Denver. And for defeinsive POY I think you could throw Jared Allen into the mix as well.
