Depends on your opinion of what a CPOY should be about. If it's about who came back from something and played the best, I guess Manning should probably win it. If it's about who overcame the most to come back and play well, it's TD hands down. Obviously more than anything it's "who's the most popular player that came back from something", and because of that it'll be Manning.

Kuechly will get more love if we continue to win. And if we do the "Rivera quietly took over the defense, started Luke in the middle and turned the team around" is a very good story that will bring the voters attention (regardless if it is true and this was the reason or not).

Kind of like the Lin hype last basketball season. The fact that an easy part of the knicks schedule probably was a larger contributer than Lins play was largely ignored. Why ruin a good story?

I have nothing but praise for Davis, and as a fellow in the "torn ACL playing football" deparment (the only time I can compare myself with the pros :D) I think it is close to a miracle that he can even play. But as far as inpact of actually play I do not think he is worthy of comeback POY consideration.

Yeah, he just shredded his knee 3 times in 23 months. Peyton had a sore neck & shoulder, what a bad ass!!!

Sore neck? Dude...

I love TD and coming back from 3 ACL surgeries is historic. But, Manning is an all-time great QB playing in a QB league at 38 years old after major neck surgery and putting up great numbers for a playoff contender. I'm as big of a Panthers and TD homer you'll find, but it's a no brainer.

Peyton was injured, not doubt, but you know it was grossly over-exaggerated by the media. He could have played last season.

Peyton himself said he called Dallas Clark to workout with him on some high school field in private bc he needed to throw to someone he could trust, primarily because he was throwing it into the dirt as a duck about 10 yards in front of him with almost no pop.

It was nerve damage in his neck and right arm. The human body can overcome a lot. Not saying the media didn't make it a big deal, but I am decently sure for 90% of people it'd have been career ending at 38.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Basbear · Posted

      Brother re-check that guarantee...my page shows 30mill.....thats means he's staying in my book for at least til the end of 2026.  Im going to be my normal honest self, besides watching like half of the SB, I didn't know the guy. My guess is Panthers have a "planned model of paying players" and they almost had to spend a chunk of space on a DLman after Dbrown injury season gave them a nightmare out-come of worst D in NFL scoring. Once Milton got above Dbrown payments, they went with the plan B. A player whom the "co-GM" put his name with. Brad said turk would not be a problem off-field and leader, which the Panthers need badly. I dug in with the google-fu, I found out  I also found him playing lots of NT, which was shocking given the small frame. He seems ready for a bigger role and had a great SB too. IDK, I feel Dan Morgan was dead set on not going into this season without more DL depth and its there. The real deal is this, nearly all FA take one year to "adjust". I think turk is trying too hard and causing injuries as a result for his contract. Dbrown called turk "strong as hell" and I know for a fact Dbrowns has insane core and strength numbers. They lift together with the 50 LB difference...... you always lift with a guy who's similar in strength cause you can leave on the 8 wheels, let the other guy lift while you rest and go after him.  I do wish he had a better beginning to his panther career, 3 games for him to do so and it would cover up the low points if he made a few plays.... Again it felt like they almost had to make move/spend $$$ and Morgan was going to have DL depth this season no matter what...My best guess.

      There's a reason DC wasn't getting calls to be a HC. He wasn't ready. His indecisiveness is infuriating. His lack of awareness is mystifying. He jumped at the chance to grab the David Tepper retirement plan and who can really blame him. Maybe with time he can grow into the job. But we're on year 8 of our 7 year rebuild. I think I'm gonna need a hip replacement before we get a decent HC.
