NFL Regular Season Awards 2023 Predictions

With just 3 more weeks to go, the NFL’s regular season is almost nearing its end. With each season ending, many questions arise. The draft positions for next year, the playoff status of teams, and an all-important one: which player will secure accolades handed out by the NFL for this regular season? Even though the juicy part of the season remains, the playoffs remain, as the majority of teams have yet to qualify for the playoffs. However, there’s no harm in predicting which players could take away the award on February 8, 2024.

The NFL Honors, as we think the Regular Season Awards will be

The NFL has once again counted on Keegan-Michael Key to host the ceremonies. It will be his third time doing so, and he is sure to bring a lot of laughs along with the awards. So without further ado, here’s our prediction for the NFL regular season awards:

Most Valuable Player – Christian McCaffrey

One of the most hotly anticipated and contested categories. This year, it is sure that someone from the San Francisco 49ers is bound to take the trophy home. And when the GOAT Tom Brady himself, keeps him in mind, how can anyone else deny Christian McCaffrey? From the RB position, he has been the heart and soul of the 49ers offense all season. He has 13 TDs to go along with his 1,292 yards until Week 16.

Defensive Player of the Year – T.J. Watt

This 29-year-old LB is one of the scariest sights for any offensive player in the league. His stature alone is enough to steal the ball, but he has skills to match as well. The Pittsburgh Steelers are lucky to have this absolute unit of a man in their squad. Till Week 16, T.J. Watt has completed 55 tackles this season while also providing assists in 16 other situations.

Offensive Player of the Year – Dak Prescott

The Dallas Cowboys looked like a changed team under the leadership of QB Dak Prescott. Considered a favorite for the MVP itself, there’s no way this 30-year-old will miss out on our list.

Prescott has been a nuisance for the defenses in the league throughout his career. But this season, with 28 TDs and 3,639 yards thrown, he has taken his game to the next level.

Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award – Lane Johnson

On-field Lane Johnson is one of the best offensive tackles in the entire NFL, but it is his consistent work off the field that is recognized in this category. The 33-year-old has been at the forefront of charitable causes at the Eagles. His work and outspoken candor about mental health and its advocacy have won him many fans. We believe he will be recognized this year for his outstanding work.

Moment of the Year – Tyreek Hill’s 29-yard gain

The Miami Dolphins have been running rampant all season. They are helped by one of the fastest players in the league, Tyreek Hill. His combination with QB has been highly dangerous for the teams this season. And this play against the Chargers in Week 1 was phenomenal. At 1st and 10th, Cheetah gained an astonishing 29 yards before being put to the ground.

Comeback Player of the Year – Joe Flacco

At the age of 38, many believed that Joe Flacco’s best days were behind him. But this Super Bowl winner proved everyone wrong. He put aside injuries and bad form to relive gridiron glory once again.

As the Cleveland Browns suffered injuries to their starter and backup QBs, Flacco came out to the rescue. He threw for 939 yards and scored 7 TDs in the three games he has started until Week 16.

Air and Ground Players of the Year – Brock Purdy and Christian McCaffery

Both teammates have wreaked havoc all year long. Their attacks can come from the air or from blasting away on the ground. Brock Purdy has been providing sensational air balls to his receivers, while Christian McCaffery has been running the ground balls.
