I changed my mind. They both stole his spot.
(Leaders in bold)
Rivers 4009 yards, 65.3% completion, 34 TDs, 11 INTs, 8.4 Y/A
Favre 3472 yards, 65.7% completion, 22 TDs, 22 INTs, 6.7 Y/A
Cutler 4526 yards, 62.3% completion, 25 TD, 18 INTs, 7.3 Y/A
*Favre and Cutler were #1 and #2 in the NFL in terms of INTs thrown.
Rivers easily had the best statline and should'e gotten the #2 spot.
It should have been (imo) 1.Manning 2.Rivers 3.Cutler . I can only imagine that most the Favre votes came from either fanboys or people who voted based on what happened earlier in the year
