He's a pretty smart dude, and has a great support sytem from his family
He's not going to do anything to risk his long term health, with a wife and kids

If PM misses the entire season, we will hear the following, "With the first pick in the 2012 NFL draft, the Indianapolis Colts select........"

There was a caller this summer on the local sports talk show "The Morning Monster", and he said that he had the exact same surgery as Peyton. He went on to say that in his opinion he couldn't see how Peyton would be able to ever play again. There was not much attention paid to this call at first but as the season began to get closer and closer it has been brought up several times by Bobby Rader.

Could you guys just imagine tomorrow morning on the ESPN ticker and breaking news on SC: "Peyton Manning to retire amidst career-ending complications with offseason neck surgery."

I'd be so heartbroken. He still plays at an elite level and to have all those future seasons wasted away at 35.

If what I'm hearing about the risk of reinjury is true, he needs to just walk away and start doing TV work.

The only story I found was: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...back-to-assure-playoff-and-super-bowl-chances

The Indianapolis Colt’s NFL record streak of nine consecutive playoff appearances, along with a chance to play in the 2012 Super Bowl in Indianapolis, are now threatened by the possibility quarterback Peyton Manning could be out for more than just a couple of games.

Manning has still not recovered from a surgery on May 23 to repair a bulging disk in his neck that was expected to heal before August 1. On July 27, ESPN’s physical therapist Stephania Bell wrote: “Anytime someone has surgery on his neck it's significant, even in the most minor or least invasive surgeries.”
This week, Manning desperately tried too hard to come back too soon, and reported soreness in his back along with weakness in his triceps and arm. Doctors are now holding him out of practice.

The Colts report it is “a complicated neurological recovery, the end date of which is unpredictable.” On NFL Live, Colts vice chairman Bill Polian Polian said every doctor they have talked to couldn’t give a timetable. The Colts will provide “concrete medical facts” when available.
Polian told WISH-TV in Indianapolis: "He is going to be back at some point…..This is uncharted territory, but we do know that the nerve regeneration takes time and it just hasn't healed yet. It will.”

Polian said: “What we don't know right now is what the results of the diagnostic tests are, what is the prognosis going forward.” Although Polian has said that he had heard nothing about a second procedure, another surgery cannot be ruled out.

Some analysts, including ESPN’s Tom Jackson and Jerry Rice, suspect Manning's injuries are more serious than they are admitting and predict the Colts will miss the playoffs.
Jackson said: "Think of all the guys over the course of the years who've had neck surgery of any kind, where you actually had an invasive surgery, where they had to cut open your neck, and they came back and played professional football."

If true and he never plays again that will be one sad day. Regardless of teams seeing anyone with that kind of talent robbed of the ability to play just sucks.

The colts might have lucked out with this development.Without Manning the colts could easily end up with the worst record in the league.If that happens they get to draft Andrew "my avatar" Luck.Manning plays a couple more years then Luck takes over.I do want to wish Peyton a full recovery.

If PM is done in the league then its a matter of time before Public Office comes calling. Those of us hoping for a new OC will be saddened to hear the news of him following in HS shoes. PM realistically could be POTUS....you heard it here first. Is he Demmy or Republic minded ????
