Comeback trail for Deuce same track as New Orleans

Deuce McAllister gets his motivation for rebuilding his reconstructed knees from his adopted city, New Orleans, as its residents rebuild their lives nearly 3 years after Hurricane Katrina.
McAllister, who has rushed for 1,000 yards in four of the past six seasons and owns a 4.3 yards-per-carry career average, is confident he'll regain past form.
Former NFL running back Terry Allen overcame reconstructions of both knees to lead the league with 21 rushing touchdowns in 1996 for the Washington Redskins. Surgical and rehabilitation techniques have improved exponentially since.

Exactly! And yet people still doubt when I say he can (and will) be the Comeback Player of the Year.
If Allen could do it back then, Deuce can most definitely do it now.
