re: NFL Thread: RAVENS SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS
Adrian Peterson: Tore 2 ligaments and the meniscus in his knee week 16, PUSHED himself to make week 1 the next season. In that season, he had 1016 yards... AFTER CONTACT. Coming off of that injury, had the 2nd most yards rushing, EVER, vs a 9 man front almost every play because his QB can't throw.
Peyton Manning: 3 or 4 neck surgeries, sits out a year. Joins a team that went to the playoffs with a QB as starter who could not take the starting role from MARK SANCHEZ the next season. Peyton Manning was sacked 21 times, 2nd fewest among any QB who started all 16 games, and less than 5 QB's who didn't start more than 10 games.
Peterson deserves the comeback player of the year award, all Manning had to do was stand around all day and throw the ball. Manning took a playoff team back to the playoffs, Peterson took a mostly unchanged 3-13 team to the playoffs the next year all by himself.

re: NFL Thread: RAVENS SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS
You are really overrating the Broncos from last season.
They were a mediocre team that only made the playoffs because they played in the worst division in the NFL. There was a three way tie for the best record in the AFC West last season FFS. To say Peyton Manning's arrival didn't improve the Broncos significantly is pure ignorance. And it's not like Tebow couldn't take Mark Sanchez's job because he wasn't good enough...Tebow never became a starter with the Jets because Rex Ryan didn't want to put Tebow in as starter because he was afraid that Tebow would actually win games and blow Sanchez out of the water. So please quit using that as a reason. And LOL at you trying to downplay having multiple neck surgeries.

The only reason Tebow didn't start is because the Jets only brought in Tebow for publicity and ticket/jersey sales. Along with the fact that Rex Ryan and the Jets' front office stubbornly stuck with Sanchez even though he was stinking it up every game.
I agree that Peterson definitely should win Comeback Player of the Year.

re: NFL Thread: RAVENS SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS
Peterson rushed back from an injury, Manning did not. Makes Peterson's season all that better. And Manning is a pussy and doesn't take any hits back there. It's harder coming back from a knee injury for a RB than a neck injury for a guy hardly ever being touched.

re: NFL Thread: RAVENS SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS
I don't even know why this is being disputed/discussed. Adrian Peterson came back from major knee surgery and almost broke Eric Dickerson's single season rushing record. Game over, Peterson is comeback player and MVP.

How is Manning a pussy because he doesn't get sacked?
And I don't have a problem with AP winning.

Because Peyton Manning is the John Cena of the NFL, he'll win any award he's eligible for.

re: NFL Thread: RAVENS SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS
Peterson is the obvious MVP to me.
And probably the comeback player too, if he qualifies. I'm not sure if there is some sort of special guidelines for the award.
