While I hate all things Manning, this news sucks (and make no mistake, this could very well be a career ender).

He should consider retirement while he can still walk. One wrong hit could cause some serious damage. Start looking at a coaching career.

I will be highly surprised if he plays this season or if he ever plays again. At minimum 3 months if everything goes great. C2-3 is pretty high up so if something bad were to occur, it could be fatal.

For the 462nd time -- he’s going into TV
If you Peyton haters are sick of him now just wait until he’s doing his Terry Bradshaw Jr routine on CBS every week

GM Peyton Manning will never make that pick.
Did GM Peyton make a timely decision to extend his contract with a lot of guaranteed money when he was still recovering from surgery?

"The common healing time is about a year," said Thaiyananthan. "At two to three months, most patients are just getting out of the collar." All patients who have had this type of procedure will lose movement in all planes -- flexion, extension, and rotation. "It's a chain and one of those is now locked in."

This is very true, and like I said before... the movement necessary in the cervical spine itself for him to move his head in different planes will result in future breakdown/degeneration of other levels. He will very likely have more of these down the road, which will only be expedited by playing more football.

That 3 months is what earliest the Colts doctors could try to even conceivably let him practice. IMO he should be out the year at minimum and probably should just hang it up for good. And the use of the collar depends on a lot of factors. Some neurosurgeons don't even use collars.
