The NFL awards were announced last night during the NFL Honors, with Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow edging out Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott to win the Comeback Player of the Year award.

Fans have mixed opinions about the results of the award. One fan was so bitter about the Bengals quarterback winning the award that he referred to him as the next Jared Goff.

Whenever there is an award based off of voting, people will find a way to complain. Some Twitter users think the former LSU standout shouldn't have won comeback player of the year.

This Twitter user thinks if Dak didn't have a late season slump, he would have won the award.

If Dak doesn’t completely sell the entire second half , he wins twitter.com/mysportsupdate…

@Gurshan_S1ngh thinks playoff bias gets in the way of the award.

NFL needs to have voting before wild card weekend. Playoff bias weighs so heavy on voters. twitter.com/mysportsupdate…

@2Trillst thinks it was a close race but is satisfied with Burrow winning.

Very close but Burrow wins twitter.com/mysportsupdate…

@BennyMacBlog thinks people are idiots for voting for anyone other than Burrow.

22 people are idiots. twitter.com/mysportsupdate…

Many Twitter users were shocked that Nick Bosa didn't receive a single vote.

0 votes for Bosa? Holy fuck 🤣🤣🤣🤣 #nfl #NFLHonors #49ers twitter.com/mysportsupdate…

During his rookie campaign, the Bengals' signal-caller went 2-7-1 while throwing for 13 touchdowns and 5 interceptions and throwing for 2,688 yards. This past season, he elevated his game going from last to first in the AFC North with a 10-6 record as the starter.

This season, Burrow threw for 4,611 yards, 34 touchdowns and 14 interceptions, and led the league in passing completion percentage with 70.4.

Prescott's season last year ended in week five against the New York Giants as he suffered a compound fracture and dislocation to his right ankle and was carted off the field. In five games, Prescott threw for 1,856 yards and the team went 6-10 that season.

This past season, Prescott led the Cowboys to an 11-5 record to win the NFC East. He set a career-high in passing touchdowns with 37 while throwing for 4,449 yards and just 10 interceptions.
