In 2023, eight receivers were in the Top 20 in yards from scrimmage. In 2024, through thirteen weeks, only two receivers are.
In 2023, no team ran at least 50% of the time; in 2024, five run at least 50% of the time, with the Eagles running 58% of the time.
According to The Football Database, median rushing yards has increased by five yards per game (109 to 114) while median passing yards have descrased by the same amount (225 to 220).
In any case, the MVP leaders are on teams that run the ball effectively.
Note that in the MVP Chase, player performances in losses, no matter how impressive, do not count, only how well they've performed in victories. Here is the latest update after Week 13.
