what AP did in 2012 was absolutely sensational.. to win MVP when it's basically a QB award was flat out amazing
He's the last non qb to win the mvp
@@Fireyninjadog and probably the last. Unless someone breaks a record lol
Greatest Running Season Ever! We couldn't do anything else but run the ball. Every Defense knew we were going to run the ball. Every Defense prepared for us to run the ball. ALL DAY
Also, the last 6-7 games of the season, AD was running with a sports hernia that he said was a 10/10 in terms of pain by week 16. Dude still averaged 160+ yards per game over that stretch. Utterly ridiculous. Dude was a fucking beast.
I feeling like Derrick henry shouldve wow it in 2020
The crazy thing about AP, is everyone knew they were going to run the ball. The Vikings had no other offense. And he still got over 2000 yards. Truly a beast.
Man was a giant among boys.
AP bouncing back from the ACL tear the previous year to win league MVP is and will always be the greatest comeback story of all time
I remember the narrative back in the day being “ if you blow your knee out, say goodbye to your career “ AD broke that stereotype in 2012
I’d put Alex smith ahead of him
@@djpoland5518 how
Honorable mention to Alex Smith. He wasn't that good in reality, but to come back after near-amputation, and leading his team to the playoffs deserves a lot of credit!
Its about the overall success in the comeback season. Yes it was crazy that Alex Smith came back, but it wasn’t like he made a great playoff run or anything. Was just impressive that he was even playing
@@zackhicks5320 He led the team to the playoffs. And they were going nowhere near it if Smith had not played.
@@Tylnorton cool, I understand and acknowledged that he did well. But I also said what the video had said, it’s about overall production and success. You want to be right so bad you’re missing the point all together
@@zackhicks5320 its not that deep bro chill 😂
@@jets6fan huh? You’re acting like some heated argument happened here. You need some attention?
I know it wasn’t a great season for Alex Smith, but HOW is he not on this list? His returning to the field at all is an absolute miracle.
The NBA needs to take notes. This is the my favorite CZcams page. No reason they don’t have a similar page
Yeah bruh it should be a nba throwback page, I’m about to make one
not enough people care about nba
@@SFTaYZa that’s huge cap
I know it's only been half the season, but Geno Smith deserves a spot here. I bet most casual fans had no idea he was even still in the league, and now he's got the Seahawks in first place.
Still remember watching AP absolutely tear through defenses back in 2012 didn’t even look like he ever tore his acl
Man was superhuman
AP averaged 6 yards a carry. That’s what makes his mvp win that much more special
He was a beast
That garrison heart injury was brutal. That astroturf was nuts
Geno Smith just coming back after like 8 years of nothing
What? No mention about Drew Brees?! The man had his shoulder mangled in 2005 and led the Saints to the NFC Championship a year later.
Swear to all deities that back in 2012 if AP had just an average QB to face less stacked boxes he would have ran for around or over 2200 that season. No offense to Ponder, still a legendary season regardless.
Alex Smith should definitely be on here considering what he went through. Leading Washington to the playoffs after an injury like that. incredible.
Even though he’s in the hof, Winslow is still underrated in my eyes. Man was unstoppable in his prime.
I wasn’t alive during his era, but my older buddy says he’s the best TE of all time. I don’t know enough to debate him.
@@willpowell3483 he’s def up there basically prime jimmy graham in the 80s
Winslow Jr as well
As a Titans fan I thought Henry would be the clear frontrunner for CPOTY this season but there's so much competition! Geno, Barkley, CMC. They're all deserving of it so far
NFL THROWBACK, I got you fam!
2001 Fred Taylor went down with a torn muscle in his groin in week 2 against the Tennessee Titans. The injury would cause him to miss 14 games that season. He came back in 2002 and started all 16 games and rushed for 1314 yards and 8 TDs. He caught a career high 49 receptions for 408 yards which gave him a total of 1722 scrimmage yards.
Side Note: Fred Taylor missed 55 regular season games, which equates to almost 3.5 seasons. He retired in 2010 with 11,695 yards rushing, which ranks 15th on the All-Time rushing yards list, right behind Thurman Thomas and Franco Harris.
underrated
Ken Anderson had an Insane comeback season in 1981. He was awful In 1980, then had an mvp season the next year, leading the bengals to their first ever super bowl
The Steve Smith game breaker line was so foul
coming back from a BAD SEASON is not the same as coming back from a devastating injury
AD ALL-DAY is my favorite all-time running back that I’ve seen play.
How do you go from Eric Berry beating CANCER as an Honorable Mention to Polamalu coming back from a regular (relatively speaking) injury lol
Eric Berry was something that could’ve been special. He could still be playing honestly. Prime Berry was special. 2018 Berry was his last year and he got to see the start of something special in this Mahomes guy. I seriously will say there will never be another QB such as Mahomes. Josh Allen is for hoes who hate Mahomes, Allen can’t make the type of throws Mahomes makes. Brady can’t even compare to Mahomes. Mahomes will be the next goat
Jamaal Charles tore his ACL the same yr Peterson tore his, came back the next season with over 1500 yards... but nothing was ever mentioned of this because of the kind of yr Peterson was having.
I completely forgot about that LOL he was a returner too which is even more dangerous. But AP was so damn good that it was completely overshadowed 🤣
In 2022 Brian Robinson (a rookie) got shot in the leg a week or 2 before the season started. The fact that not only did he play this season, he did so at an elevated level. Kudos
Eric Berry CANNOT be an Honorable Mention. This man BEAT CANCER, and had a First Team All Pro year right after that. Let that sink in.
It must not be in order
I may have the minority opinion here, but I honestly think a comeback season where someone plays incredibly poorly the year before is a lot more impressive than an injury-riddled season. A lot of the players who have great seasons after season-ending injuries were already huge stars before that, so it’s honestly not as surprising as it seems when you think about it. But to completely elevate your game and talent after looking dreadful the year before, that shows a lot of commitment to improving on your struggles. But those are just my thoughts, and I totally understand why people might disagree with me.
Like Geno Smith or Jalen Hurts
@@darknightmike10yearsago absolutely. Both this year could definitely be considered candidates for this list.
Don’t forget Jamaal Charles Rushed For Almost 1500 yards coming off a torn ACL the same year As AP
The playoffs that saw Rams/Bengals in the Super Bowl was the single greatest postseason I have ever witnessed. Someone should do a documentary on it
Love the videos, man. Keep it up!!!
Love that Burrow is on this list !
I would love to see a video on the opposite in the most insane regression in 1 year
I love how in staffords highlights, the only dude he was throwing to was megatron. Could you imagine what those two could’ve done if they had some help around them
They were just so damn good with each other. Would’ve been awesome if they had a real team to play with.
Well damn... That beefy hit Kellen Winslow took after catching that TD pass was brutal looking, but seconds after pops up to celebrate. My what a different era of football
Tony Romo (2011) 4184 Pass Yards 31 Pass TDs 102.5 Passer Rating after coming back from a season-ending broken collar bone the year before
Dak Prescott (2021) 4449 Pass Yards a Cowboys Record 37 Pass TDs 11-5 Record as a Starter coming back from a season-ending Ankle injury where his ankle nearly SNAPPED OFF this is literally Bullshit
Because a broken collar bone isn't career threatening i seen Aaron Rodgers bounce back from collar bone injury but yea Prescott deserve comeback of the year tho
I remember the 97 Cunningham year extremely vividly. We had season tickets. Absolutely greatest time of life at those games.
Manning and AP returns were incredible but AP's was so incredible to watch. He came back stronger and faster to almost break the all-time single season rushing yards record.
His avg per game was crazy... Yea AP season was wild
Where’s the original great comeback season? Gale Sayers, 1969? First guy to come back from a serious knee injury
Steve Smith's was the greatest. Triple crown, nothing more needs to be said.
20:01
Bears fan. This man is an absolute legend.
Last of the great rb’s in the NFL 🙏🏽
I thought AP was on his way to being the greatest running back of all time. I haven't seen a rookie RB as dominant as him since.
I never understood why Peterson wasn’t the full time starter in his rookie year. Chester Taylor wasn’t in the same zip code as AD.
@@lucyloo2228 because rookie AP fumbled alot and had bad carrying he gotten better as he gotten older
@@handsomedevil254 he only fumbled 4 times in his rookie year.
@@lucyloo2228 that's alot LOL but I agree he should have been the starter
This was another masterfully done retrospective. While I was watching, I was really excited trying to guess who was going to be on the list. Some of these comebacks I vividly remembered, others I had completely forgotten, and a couple I had no idea about. Great seeing Garrison Hearst on there. What he had to go through for the two years he was out had to have been really tough, but he kept working, and was able to make a remarkable turnaround in 2001 at the age of 30. Two more 49ers that made great comebacks were Jerry Rice off his ACL injury in 1998 at age 36 with another banner year, and Fred Dean returning strong way back in 1983 with 17.5 sacks after a groin injury greatly diminished his production, and time in 1982. As always thank you for the content, and I'm anxious to see what is next on the horizon for the NFL Throwback channel.
What Peterson pulled off in 2012 will likely never be seen again. Back in my day, that injury was a career ender.
Love how every Matt stafford highlight is him throwing to megatron lmao
I was thinking that LaDainian Tomlinson when he was on the Jets in 2010 may have been mentioned but honestly this is pretty much a perfect video
Awesome video
Manning has 2 sb wins, one of which was GIFTED to him by Von Miller... WINNERS like Brady and Mahomes are special because they PRODUCE in the clutch!
That old carpet on concrete astro turf ended a lot of careers
I think it’s crazy what stafford did. His rookie year was horrible and barley playing in 2010 and then throwing 41tds and 5000 yards is just unreal.
I was hoping to see Ty Law's 2005 season in the video.
Unfortunately the jets didn’t do good that year, so that’s the reason why he’s not featured in this list
2021 Vikings to 2022 Vikings……greatest comeback season of all time
can you make a video for the fullbacks
ALL DAY BABY!!! AP was an absolue animal is unequivocally my favorite player of all time. That comeback season will likely never be topped. Funny thing is he could’ve had the record but the Vikings kneeled the ball to end the game and clinch a playoff berth.
Adrian Peterson's come back was legendary and mesmerizing
Look at how many of the injuries on this list that happened at FedEx Field.
Imagine if Montana faced the cowboys or 49ers in the Super Bowl
WOW!!! Can't even give Alex Smith an honorable mention?!?!?!
Eric Berry deserves more then an honourable mention c’mon
I didn't know jamal Charles injury was the same as AP.. I didn't hear anything in the media at that time.. that's a shame. That 2011-2013 timeframe took out alotta legendary players
Big Ben miss 2019 season, back to 2020, throw for 3800 yds 33 TD 10 int start the season 11-0 ... At 38 years old.
2012 broncos should’ve had a ring. Best team that season. Unfortunately a jacoby jones miracle play finished them off and won the ravens a ring that year
Bryant Young should have also gotten at least an honorable mention as well in this video.
For no shave November you guys should do the best facial hair among mascots and players in history. Another great vid though!
That’s actually a good idea
I’m ready for a NBA/MLB throwback channel
Drew Bree’s comeback season after shoulder injury
I swear at 6:10 I start hearing Corridors of Time from Chrono Trigger in the background
Looked like every pass Stafford threw was to Megatron except one 😆
13:19 I believe you meant “greatest quarterback AT the time” not “of all time.”
Brady obviously wasn’t playing when he retired, so the statement “at the time” would be true, but “of all time” is indisputably false now.
7:02 one of those tds come on MNF
AP’s reputation bouncing back from beating his kid too
Y'all seriously don't have Drew Brees bouncing back from a dislocated shoulder to lead the Saints to the NFC Title Game and was voted on the All-Pro team? The disrespect...smh.
I love nfl throwback
Brady in 09 after the acl tear. Where is it.
2012 AD AP was different it’s like he was just whipping the league up oh wait
Jim Brown, Walter Payton,
Barry Sanders, Adrian Peterson 🔐
you forgot the 2022 packers
AP greatest comeback of all time. Big skol😈
Skol baby
SKOL SKOL BABY MY Favorite of all time AD🟣🟡🔥🔥🔥🔥
1000 percent agree
NFL please hire the Joe Vincent channel to do your voice work his work is amazing
🤡
The best documentary on CZcams... Joe Vincent!!! The best
Man why was Vick's career almost over? Kinda skipped over that part, accidental I'm sure
What about the 2020-21 browns? They went from 0-16 to 11-5 in only 3 years.
I liked his comeback after he got suspended for beating his child.
Kerry Collins with the Tennessee Titans?
The fact that Eric Berry being an all pro just months after beating cancer is only an honorable mention is stupid. That’s probably the best comeback in NFL History.
I’m a Broncos fan, and I hated every time we had to face him. One of the best dbs I’ve ever seen. Truly inspirational, even if it was on a rival team.
Was Alex Smith not mentioned in this? You guys are insane. The fact that he came back AT ALL and performed to ANY respectable degree makes him the top of this list 100x over. Players have come back from ACLs and performed fine. NO ONE has come back from the monumental amount of shit Alex Smith did.
Everybody still sleeps on Jordy Nelson.
Jamal Charles probably should've been on here too
So we're gearing up for Geno Smith to win it?
The only video you will see w/out Tom Brady who won the same award.
What about Alex Smith?
What about Alex smiths Gruesome leg injury?
Burrow fr went from:
💩 to 🏆(almost)
I’m here for AP.
Where is 2007 Randy Moss.
500 yards and 3 TDs to
1500 yards and 23 TDs?
Randy didn't suffer an injury tho he just started playing with a much better QB in Brady thats all gronk had that luxury his whole career
1 Thessalonians 5:19
Quench not the Spirit.
I Like This Awesome Video 📸 NFL Throwback 👍 Great Job.
So no mention of Alex Smith?
In hindsight the Vikings should probably have said "fuck the Playoffs" and try get AP that record, running one more play to get those 8 Yards instead of Kicking the FG to win the game. In the Wildcard Round they had to start a converted WR at QB in Lambeau and not even AP could carry them through that.
Fuck it put em at qb😂
Thomas Davis coming back from tearing his ACL on three separate occasions???
ARTOSIS!
I know it’s an early prediction but I think breece hall is winning comeback player of the year next year if he doesn’t get injured again
