Was Robert Quinn snubbed of the Defensive Player of the Year award? I'm going to be very fair here and say yes. Quinn did, however, win The Best Most Dominant Defensive Player of 2014.
NFL awards = popularity contest @RQuinn94 congrats on being *the best *most dominant defensive player of 2014.

Amen, Chris Long. If there's a defensive award to win, this is the one. Let's break it down by adjective:
The Best
Not a single defensive player has displayed the excellence and relentless you have shown during every game on every snap.
Most Dominant
You can't be stopped. Oh, you have two linemen in your way? Cakewalk.
Defensive Player of 2014
You gotta play defense, play it on a level far above the rest, and score points.
Game tape clearly shows Quinn exuding these qualifications.
Chris, your choice for TBMDDP is spot-on.
So congrats, Robert Quinn, on winning The Best Most Dominant Defensive Player of 2014.
