Is there a better explanation for how Crosby in particular got more votes? We already know at least one AP voter was going to vote based on off the field stuff with the Rodgers situation.
There are 50 writers who only get to vote twice when there are 4 players selected for the two teams.
All 50 voted for Watt, 29 voted for Garrett. Thst means 29 voters didn't even vote for Bosa v Crosby v Quinn.
The 2nd team was voted on by only 21 people who were in disagreement as to who was the second best Edge behind Watt.
Small sample size results in random outcomes. No idea what the result would have been if all 50 had to choose between just Crosby, Bosa or Quinn....but what I am saying is, the voting system is pretty s**t, and that's a more likely reason for Bosa missing out than political agendas.
Okay with Quinn getting. Crosby is a real wtf
And even once we take Quinn out the Bosa v Crosby comes down to only 12 people voting.
2nd team doesn't even have a RB because of the unanimous Taylor vote. Has 3 safeties too.
It's just a really dumb voting system to give people 2 votes to select 4 players.
It jopens itself up to have bias, agendas, stats, randomness alter the second team because all the voters are really doing is voting on the 1st team and nothing else.
