After a difficult season last year, the Blizzard returned to their dominant ways. They have had a lot of great seasons in the past, so using the word "historic" might be premature, but it might also be accurate.

QB Jeremy McManus became the first to ever throw for 100 TDs. In fact, he didn't have fewer than 300 yards and 5 TDs in any of the games this year to earn MVP honors. His favorite targets were TE Nate Ijalana, TE/FB Aaron McClain and rookie WR Donald Wolfe (who had a season-ending injury in week 16, thus cutting his first season short).
On defense, Soma Johnson tied the team/league record for interceptions with 15, while also compiling 162 tackles, 4 forced fumbles and a fumble recovery. But it is LB Tony Young who brought home DPOY honors with his 96 tackles, 3 forced fumbles, 2 fumble recoveries and 1 interception.
