Though Dolphins quarterback Chad Pennington might not win the MVP award, he’ll have a consolation prize.

His second Associated Press Comeback Player of the Year award.

Pennington, who started all 16 games in his first year with the Dolphins after starting only eight in 2007 with the Jets, received 19 of 50 votes.

Pennington also won the award in 2006, a year after playing in only three games.

Titans quarterback Kerry Collins and Panthers quarterback Jake Delhomme received six votes.

Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner, Cardinals receiver Anquan Boldin, and Buccaneers receiver Antonio Bryant earned four votes each.

Dolphins linebacker Joey Porter received three votes, and one vote each went to Dolphins running back Ronnie Brown, Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers, Steelers safety Ryan Clark, and Ravens tackle Willie Anderson.

I got so pissed when I read that.....someone who comesback from elbow surgery that is sometime a career ender....and they just give it to pennington....shame

Can't argue with it, he played a lot better than Delhomme did with less supporting cast.

Jake Delhomme had Tommy John Surgery.... Tommy fricken John Surgery

Chad Pennington just switched teams... C'mon Man!

that's stupid jake did a surgery that only two QB have been documented having and both retired fast after receiving it. Having that surgery was a gamble and has helped with football modern science. Now that someone has tried and tested surgery many other NFL players can have hope and use it knowing that someone has tried it and succeeded at it instead of retiring. What did chad comback from having a bad year? if so i'd rather they have given it to Kerry Collins, Antiono Bryant, Julius Peppers ect lot of people have comeback from bad a bad year and not have a good supporting cast as he did. I don't blame chad but i blame press. Well at least jake has terry award lol.
