    I'm sorry,  but you won't like this post.    You won't be alone.

     

    But there is no reason --- NONE -- for you or any other Colts fan to thenk that he will be "better than ever."     The best you could possibly hope for is that he's what he once was.     And I think that is highly unlikely.     But no one comes back better than they were before.      This is not pitchers in baseball after Tommy John surgery.     This is much worse.

     

    And I don't care how encouraged Luck sounded.     Luck has sounded encouraged in every interview he has given since the operation and NOTHING has gone right.     He hasn't even thrown a pass in any workout yet and says he won't for a few more weeks.     That's a big red flag.     That was easily the worst interview/press conference Luck has given in his life.  

     

    We are in unchartered waters here.     There is no history with this operation to a Quarterback.    You can't point to anyone else and says that guy came back after X months and did great.    This is the first of its kind.    And it is way, WAY behind schedule.    Luck can't even say when he thinks he'll be back to 100 percent.   He can't even say with any conviction that he won't need another surgery.   He says he THINKS he won't.    That's far from encouraging.    Another red flag. 

     

    And he does NOT look better than he did 2 months ago.    He looks the exact same.     But he does look better than he did 4-6 months ago.    There were all sorts of threads during the season about how Luck has put the weight back on and how good he looked.     Luck himself said he was back to 235 months ago.    Your memory is playing tricks on you. 

     

    There is very little for me as a Colts fan, or a Luck fan,  to feel encouraged about.     I only hope Luck and Ballard have an honest heart-to-heart talk in April so Ballard can decide if he needs to draft another QB with a 1st or 2nd round pick.      Because we may have to.     Luck has been wrong in almost everyone of his predictions about his health.   I hope he's not wrong again.

     

     

     

     

    OK, I'll take a shot at it. Drew Brees

    Well a change was needed, but I now I am in the  Minority here but I like Pagano I think he's a good coach, the team plays there butt off for him! The injury issues this year starting with Andrew sealed his fate! I wise Chuck well in the future, he deserved a better fate IMO! The change although comes as no surprise!

    I'm with ya 100%. kinda sad to see him go. Getting someone better is not as easy as some people think.

    Yes, it was Tom Savage. BUT, it was Deandre Hopkins and Will Fuller. Two pretty good WRs. This team was built to play physical man coverage. The Texans got back into the game once we started playing 10 yards off the line of scrimmage. Quit being downers and give the secondary some credit for playing a pretty good game. Tom Savage is still a quarterback in the NFL. Not like you're out there throwing to them. 

    Yeah, but that happens every game! Why??

    They aren’t tanking they are just doing strange things.  I’d agree Pagano needs to go because he’s not good enough but If they were tanking Tolizen would still be in there and there would be no talk of Luck coming back.

     

    Also NFL teams don’t tank because if you go 2-14 or 3-13 or whatever, the coaches and a lot of the players who would have to go along with tanking would lose their jobs.

    Are we tanking? We'll see at the end of the season. If Pagano stays, then yes. If Pagano is gone, then no. As far as Tolizen not still in there. It would make it to obvious that we are tanking. So you just have the coach make really bad coaching decisions, and tell him he'll be retained.
