He won pocono about 6 weeks ago and had a good car Sunday so I wouldn't be shocked. Worst races on a row for me for NASCAR. Indy,pocono,Watkins Glen and Michigan. Thank God Bristol is Aug 27.

Looks like Ford has helped out enough to make Carl stay. Reports are saying it could come as early as this afternoon that he is staying at Roush Racing.

Carl isn't going anywhere!!!!!!!!!

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carl Edwards has decided the best chance for him to win a Sprint Cup championship is to stay put.

The current series points leader has agreed to a new multiyear deal with Roush Fenway Racing, declining an offer to move to Joe Gibbs Racing in 2012, the team announced Thursday. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

In a statement, team co-owner Jack Roush said he was "thrilled" that Edwards would remain part of the team for years to come.

"Carl Edwards has achieved a level of success on and off track that would put him at the top of the list for any race team," Roush said. "We saw great potential in Carl a decade ago, and it's been a thrill to watch him grow into one of the sport's premier drivers behind the wheel of the No. 99."

Edwards had been mulling offers from both organizations, with several reports saying he would leave the team that gave him his NASCAR break in the Truck Series in 2002.

However, with what Ford spokesman Kevin Kennedy called an unprecedented offer by the manufacturer for Edwards to stay at RFR and other incentives, Edwards opted to stay put.

Edwards said Roush Fenway has given him "the resources I need to win."
