Reaction: Lacy wins AP Offensive Rookie of the Year Award

As you probably already know, Packers RB Eddie Lacy, who rushed for 1178 yards and 11 TDs this season, was named the 2013 AP Offensive Rookie of the Year this weekend. Now I really want to be exited about his accomplishment, but I just can't be. Lacy had no real competition for the award, so it's not surprising that he won it easily.

Still, I guess it is pretty awesome to have any Packers RB would any kinda award. I mean, for the past five years this team's running game has been virtually non-existent, so this was definitely a cool feeling.

Lacy named PFWA Rookie of the Year

Earlier this week, the Pro Football Writers of America (PFWA for short) announced that Packers RB Eddie Lacy, who was just named to the Pro Bowl Roster a couple days ago, had been named their 2013 Rookie of the Year. You guys all already know he was good, so I don't believe I need to use numbers to explain him anymore. 

Anyway, yea, that's basically all there is to this story. The PFWA did hand out some more accolades, but of all of them, Lacy was the only Packer to win one. Which, I must admit, I find a little disappointing.
