Re: OT: P. Manning out for seaon???
Haha sucker!
All kidding aside, I have 5 damaged cervical spine disks in my neck and Ed Reed is right, do NOT get surgery if you can help it, rehab, work hard, grit through the pain because I don't think you can ever be the same after messing with it. Wouldn't be surprised if Manning is done after this, really.
A neck isn't a knee, the pain is paralyzing.

Have to believe Peyton won't play this year, despite what Colts may say right now.
They will be well out of it by the time Peyton can come back (said to be 2-3 months at minimum) so what is the point of him coming back to play 4-5 games for a 2-10 team? I don't see any way the Colts aren't one of the worst teams in the league this year.

We all knew it was coming. We just did not expect it to happen this soon, and under such unfortunate circumstances. I do not want to see anyone have to live with neck problems.
Who are they going to beat without him? There are only four games on their schedule that I could see them winning without Manning. Two of those are against Jacksonville, one is against Cincinnati and one is against Carolina.
That defense loses significant effectiveness without Manning to help put pressure on teams."Please take with you this final sword, The Excellector. I am praying that your journey will be guided by the light", Leon Shore

Agreed. No reason to play him if they are out of the running, and by the time he might be ready, it's likely they'll have a losing record. And since he is about to turn 36, not sure how many years he would have anyway.
We may have seen the last of him. Great QB. Wish he had been on another team ;)

ESPN is reporting 2-3 months is an EXTREMELY accelerated timeline to be back out on the field. I think the Colts would like to know he's ok to play but at the same time, I can't imagine the Colts or Peyton is going to risk further or more serious injury just to make sure he is ok to play before they pay him the bonus money.

I think once October/November rolls around and the Colts are out of the playoff hunt, they'll shut Peyton down for the year and see where he's at come March.
The Colts without Peyton are a 4-6 win team.Disclaimer: The content posted is of my own opinion.

Kerry Collins is a crafty QB. He can eek out a few wins.

I wish Peyton a full recovery. I'm not a Colts fan, but the guy is just hard to hate.
