well...i do think that dorsey will probably win it, but i disagree with who they pick as the candidates anyways. i mean i do know that the quarterback is the leader of his team, but does he really contribute anything special that he shouldn't already have to be expected to achieve?? a quarterback should already be able to bring his team to great things and in tight situations bring his team to victory. the true candidates should be the wide-receivers and running-backs that have to raise themselves to levels to get past defenders. it's the same situation as MLB where the leaders (pitchers) are in a catagory of their own (cy young award) compared to the other athletes on the team. like wise quarterbacks are in their own catagory, should they really be compared to the level of play that the rest of the skilled players are?? if a quarterback has an outstanding year..that's good, but if a running-back has a great year, that means more for the team and therefore should get more recognition...which the heisman trophy is about.
