I just don't know about some of those defenses.

Brady looked decent against the Jets but the Jets also let up Chad Henne throw for 363 yards and 2 TDs on them. Stafford put up 240 and 2 TDs on that defense, too. I'm not saying the Jets have a bad defense but I'm not sure how much we should read into Brady doing well against them.

The Dolphins are a good defense but Brady didn't really do anything against them. He had like 150 yards passing.

The Chargers have a good defense but Brady put up another 150 yard performance there.

I'll give you the Steelers (even though they went through a little defensive slump there in the middle of the season.)

And the Bears let up 300 yards to Ryan Fitzpatrick. What was more impressive about Brady's performance against the Bears, I guess, was the weather conditions there. You don't typically see the ball getting aired out like that in icy conditions.

Are those defenses good? Yeah. But I don't know how much I'd read into Brady playing well against them when it comes to MVP voting.
top defenses are gonna be able to hold you in check somewhat. finding a way to win, and not losing the games is impressive to me. especially when having to play on the road in lots of those games.
