I think Manning will retire if he believes he can't perform at a high level.
 
He still hasn't even gained his full arm strength yet, and we're going to start calling him noodle arm?

First of all Manning never had a strong arm to begin with, he had an accurate arm. Second, everyone was saying the same **** about Brees when he had the rotator cuff injury and right now he has a stronger arm than he did when he was in the Chargers.
 
This describes that whole article:

“I think people are starting to sway over to Jim Irsay’s side on this,” Kravitz said.​

Really?
 
If he plays like a late career Chad Pennington, then we shall do well. Possibly go all the way this time, being that he will be surrounded by better players than Pennington was.
 
Did Pennington ever have the same arm strength as Manning? If not, it isn't a comparable situation.

What did he make it through, two plays his last year? Everybody has Peyton coming to the fins and being just like he used to be when it actuality noone knows. Let it play itself out.

But that is what the author is saying. His arm strength now, because of the nerve damage, is the same as Pennington's arm strength at the end of his career. It doesn't matter what Manning's arm strength used to be, it only matters what it is now.
 
Chris Weinke had the same injury as Peyton Manning and didn't start having the nerves regenerate until the 6 month mark. Manning isn't at the 6 month mark until march. It's still early guys.
 
I am willing to take the risk anyway and sign him. If Penny can win the division with a Noodle Arm, I am sure Manning can do more.

IF we are to ever take a risk on some player, who better than Peyton Manning!?!?!?!
 
WAIT....It's February and he's playing like the guy who led us to the AFC East championship a year after going 1-15? I will TAKE IT!

I'm assuming it will be somewhat better come the 2012 season. We clearly have a team that can get to the red zone, except they kick too many field goals. Even if Manning is not as strong as he used to be, his accuracy is still there. You think we're kicking 4 field goals between 15-28 yards like we did against the Cowboys if Peyton Manning is the QB? Or losing a 1 point game to the Browns because we couldn't score? If just one of those FG's is a TD, those are wins.
 
Come on guys, you have to know that if Manning si throwing like Pennington did here, considering his in field intelligence, OL scrimmage changes before the snap, defensive reads and all he brings to the table besides his throwing strength, he will instantly make the team he lands in, to a contender one.
 
Cooper Manning is a UFA, I say we bring him in for a workout.
