If we have to. We're gonna bring back the old days of pounding the rock all day and playing stout defense. All that slingin the ball around the yard all day is great for the arena league.

Improper use of the word Hulkamania.

And i was right, brother.

He re-signed three days ago.

This is the 90's, he hasn't even been drafted yet.

Dude, quit it, he's going to hulk up on you.

He was playing with the injury for two or three years and has since had it fixed. He could actually play better than he has in years. Brady missed a year in his 30's and has came back strong.

:D I hear you Coach Edwards.

What he "could" do isn't the issue. The issue is the stupidity of trying to equate Manning's situation to those of Moeaki, Charles and Berry.

Yo Macho Man Randy Savage, I think Peyton Mannings neck is going snap like a Slim Jim.

All 4 of them sustained injuries that could mean they will never be the player they used to be. All 4 of them could come back and play at the high level to which they are accustomed. Nobody, including the players and trainers, will know how it turns out until the season begins to unfold.

Only one is nearing AARP age however

reeruned post of the year goes to Knowmo.

Definitely. In addition to his injuries age and not having played for a year are Peyton's enemies

That's a piss poor analogy. Two totally different injuries and Brady wasn't 36. He was 29; and he was coming back to the exact same team.

If the Indianapolis organization would have believed him to be as capable as ever after sitting out for a year, they would have kept him. They knew his situation better than anyone and chose to let him go and start over from scratch. You don't do that when you have a quarterback that's still one of the best in the game. So it's reasonable to think that Manning will come back as a shadow of his former self like Namath did with the Rams.

As far as nerve damage healing, the only one who really knows is Manning. He's the type of player who would never admit that he's not 100% unless medical science could prove it. He'll go down flailing the ball like a 4 year old girl before he ever admits he's not the player he once was.

If he returns to form, fine. But the chances that he capable of taking an otherwise bad team to the Superbowl are slim at best.

Welp, season's over.
