Cam Newton or Peyton Manning?

I have both in my keeper league and I'm agonizing over who to keep. Who would you keep and why? I'd appreciate any input, thank you.

payton manning should have gotten mvp last year with the 180 his team did without him....that said, a year off and neck surgery is scary....i could not take manning as a #1 QB this year but don't be too shocked if he ends up on an opponents team and he shoves the ball down your throat....time off, injury, new system, and new team mates....

you have to go with cam....

You're so right, thanks for insight, but it's not going to be easy!

Keep Peton Manning. Evn though Manning is older, has more of an injury risk, and will not give you any rushing yards or rushing TD's, I still think that Peyton will almost certainly put up way more fantasy points this year than Cam Newtppphhhhhahahahahahaha.

Sorry. It's really hard to do that with a straight face.

Everyone else in this thread is right. Go with Cam.

I'd put those three as Stafford, Cam, and Peyton.

Stafford has been injury prone but his upside is much more than the other two. I expect Cam to be solid again but I wouldn't count on more than last year, and Peyton is just too big a risk compared to the others.

You would take those guys at four? Over Rogers and Brady?

Cam, not close.

I expect Manning to have a good year, but he's a definite injury risk and he might have a hard time adjusting to playing outdoors almost every game. I think that Cam will come back to earth a bit but should still be a solid top 5 qb.

Cam. Even with Tolbert the td vulture in town.

What's the penalty? Assuming penalty is round drafted, cam. I'm not that high on him, but he'll definitely produce for that late round pick. If there is no penalty, I would say Cam solely because of the rushing yards and TDs being more valuable.
