That has been the rumors/reports since late July and watch, he will probably play next week

I still don't get why some in here doesn't think Taylor can return to 2021 form. He is young with Elite speed and has only been in the NFL for 3 years and hasn't had a bad year yet. Even last year he played good with nagging injuries and his ankle problem. His injury wasn't even that bad. If it were an Achilles or something, I could get that. Also regarding his contract, it is very normal for an all-pro type of player to want an extension in the last year of their deal. It has happened 100's of times over the years. Not hard to understand.

I agree, I am not a doctor let me say that but I have my doubts what a concussion is or not. I have been concussed and had to stay in a dark room with very little noise for nearly 3 days. A headache could definitely be mistaken as a concussion. AR was out in public the very next day after the Texans games, walking around and was fine. That was per the Kevin Bowen show. That doesn't sound like a concussion to me. I think teams and doctors are being extra careful after what happened to Tua and don't need any bad publicity, so they just say concussion no matter what. Like when someone gets a cold, some automatically assume you may have Covid-19. That is the world we live in.

Opening play, play action, AR to Pierce for a 70 yard TD

He may have tripped and fell in the shower??

Maybe he had 1 too many White Castles.

Yeah the last game I went too was in 2013 when Luck and the Colts took care of the Texans, Score was 25-3. I have been to around close to 50 games in here in Indianapolis overall dating back to 1987. Best games I have ever attended was in 2009 vs the Pats, we won 35-34 on a Sunday Night. Peyton vs Tom, the ol 4th and 2 game. I also was at the Cowboys at Colts game in 1999. We won that as well. Marvin burning Deion was sweet, Peyton threw a perfect pass. Both Deion and Marv were Elite players. Seeing Emmit do his thing live was pretty cool too. Have fun at the game, it will be a battle.

He will be fine. He is a big strong dude. Just needs to play smarter.

I have us winning but never said it would be easy. I think we are good enough to get by this week. Cool you are going to the game. Last time I went to a game was 10 years ago, hard to believe in 2013.

Only 10 points, OK lol.

It isn't ideal but all teams have injuries as you know. Just Kupp being out alone will hurt them bigtime. When healthy he is a top 5 WR in the league. Also if I am not mistaken, they are banged up on their O.Line as well. We get to the QB very well. If we can put major pressure on Lamar, I know we can Stafford.

We will start 4-1, you heard it here 1st. I agree 100%.

We have pretty good depth, I think we proved that at Baltimore. Our backup QB is even average at worse. If Moss gets injured early, that would be a concern because our other RB's aren't that good. Other than that, let the games begin.

That is another thing, it is a bad look when you keep your starter out for no reason. Nobody in here would suggest keeping Peyton or Luck out if they were 100% healthy.

That isn't how it works. He's healthy so he should start. He is the starter. It is football and a dangerous sport, it is what it is, can't keep putting him in a safe bubble. He is 6'4 250 pounds, he will be fine. His injury 2 weeks ago was a fluke and it really wasn't that serious.

So, AR, Nelson, Moss, Pittman, Pierce, Downs, French, Franklin, Speed, Moore, Leonard, Buck, and Paye are all playing. I think things will be ok. Buck will play from everything I have been reading. No doctor can keep him out because he isn't in any type of concussion protocol. Buck isn't known for missing games unless he is really injured.

I think they all play but what do I know

Not really, AR can run. Kelly didn't play last week and we still won. Mustache took 2 or 3 big hits but isn't near as mobile as AR is.

If we don't turn the ball over or even win the Turnover the battle, we should win. I have 24-19 Colts. It will be close because the Rams have Championship experience with their QB and Coach + Donald but we are playing better right now. We should be able to get to Stafford consistently. That will disrupt their whole game.

Broncos should win, in reality they have the better QB and Coach but I went with the Bears for craps and giggles. Bears at home is about the only reason

McDaniels may be the worst coach in the league. I would take Frank over him. Here is what Homer thinks of McDaniels

Me too, if I go 12-4 this week, it will be pure luck. I still haven't bet on any games yet.

Tough week to pick really. There are a lot of good games this week. Falcons/Jags - could go either way. Ravens at Browns - could go either way. Dolphins at Bills - could go either way. Steelers at Texans - could go either way. Broncos at Bears - could go either way. Bucs at Saints - could go either way. I am not even sure if Carr is playing, if so he isn't 100%.

So far, we made the right decision. It is still early though, we need to get to 4-1 for me to really start believing Shane is very good. We should beat the Rams and the Titans, that is our next 2 opponents. The other coaches have been disappointing so far. The Broncos are a complete mess so are the Panthers.
