    It depends how you look at it. Rosenbloom was the owner of the Baltimore Colts when they won Super Bowl 5. Baltimore was the city at the time that won Super Bowl 5. Irsay and Indy eventually inherited the Colts franchise, but not until after Super Bowl 5 was won. 

    Its weird that the original trophy resides in St Louis. It’s also odd that you will find no banners of the 1958,59, 68 NFL Championships or Super Bowl 5 in either Baltimore or Indy. 

     

    Well, we have participation banners hanging in LOS. Might as well hang those NFL Championships and Super Bowl 5 banners too.

    Could be they're trying to be dramatic for ratings, but a basic Google search says..

     

    Surgical recovery after a biceps tenodesis is usually about four to six weeks. However, as mentioned earlier, often a tenodesis is performed along with other surgical procedures that may require a more lengthy recovery. If having an isolated tenodesis procedure, the patient can expect to wear a sling for a few weeks.

     

    We obviously aren't Dr's, but I think just from reading the above it would be a long rehab if you had both done at the same time. Luck's shoulder has to be fine by now, if it's simply the bicep relocation, it sounds pretty straight forward and like they said above it's 4-6 weeks.

     

    Will Carroll, who is regarded as a sportswriter who specializes in the coverage of medical issues, was on with Grady and Big Joe this morning.  He seems to think that Luck would be fine if he had the surgery but he thinks that it's more like 6-9 months for recovery for a person who throws for a living.  He talked about Favre and Elway.  Favre's surgery was a tenotomy which involved releasing the biceps tendon and not reattaching it.  Elway actually snapped his biceps tendon and said he felt better after it snapped.  He also say he called Curt Schilling who had the tenodesis surgery and Schilling told him how difficult the recovery and rehab was and that it ultimately led him to retire.  Luck is much younger so that's a positive that he'd heal up much faster.

    Great post.  I suppose if we are going to use the chef analogies, Pagano is like hiring a chef specializing in Italian cuisine to run a sushi bar.  The point this really illustrates is this team needs to have a head coach and general manager on the same page.  Something that simply wasn't the case with Pagano and Grigson.  

     

    I think of Pagano as more of a sous chef.

    Let's torture this analogy, because I'm kind of tired of it anyway...

     

    If I give you eggs, veggies and bacon, will you try to make an omelette, or will you try to make steak dinner? Both are good meals, but you would be foolish to try to make a steak dinner out of omelette ingredients.

     

    This staff -- led by Pagano -- has spent several seasons trying to make the wrong kind of meal for the type of ingredients he has. They don't have steak and potatoes, they have eggs and veggies, but refuse to make a simple but effective omelette. 

     

    And yet, the argument is 'he doesn't have the groceries for a steak dinner!' Yet, no one needs a steak dinner, just a good meal using whatever ingredients you have.

     

    Pagano’s just not a good chef.

    actually Osweiler is not 3-0 against the Colts  because he didn't start Thursday.

     

    So I wouldn't take anything from this game. It was just another one

     

    It won’t go down as winning a start in the stats, but he definitely won that game for them.  He made some plays and got his team fired up. I think we win if Siemian stays in. It just goes down as another loss for the Colts when they knock out the opponent’s starting QB.
