NFL All-Pro Voting: Eagles' LeSean McCoy Should Be Top RB Choice in NFL

Ryan RudnanskyDec 12, 2011

The Philadelphia Eagles have been a complete and utter disaster this season.

Labeled as "The Dream Team" by quarterback Vince Young in the offseason, the Eagles are not only far from Super Bowl favorites at this point—they likely won't even make the playoffs.

But that shouldn't count against star running back LeSean McCoy in this season's All-Pro voting.

McCoy has been one of the Eagles' few bright spots this season, and he's done so surrounded by a team that hasn't been cohesive for much of the year.

Through Week 14, McCoy has rushed for the second-most yards in the NFL, and he's done so while averaging 4.8 yards per carry and scoring 14 touchdowns on the ground.

On top of this, the multi-dimensional back has caught 45 balls for 310 yards and three touchdowns, and has not fumbled the ball once all season long.

It's natural for a player on a good team to get a top award, but in this sense McCoy did everything in his power to lift the Eagles. He was simply surrounded by what has turned out to be a bad football team.

He's also maintained his focus throughout the season despite the hype train that has followed the Eagles since the preseason. In this sense, McCoy has also been a leader for the Eagles on a team that has had few since the beginning.

If we're talking about the most productive running back in the NFL this season, the All-Pro spot should go to McCoy first and foremost. He's never been selected as an All-Pro before nor made the Pro Bowl.

Leaving him off the First Team this year would be a disgrace.
