    “I certainly believe I will [be ready for Week 1],” Luck said to Peter King of Football Morning in America. “That’s certainly the goal.”

    Oh look, there's even a video...

    If you want more proof, go back thru and read the tweets...

     

    That's from 3 weeks ago.

    Luck told Peter King for his Football Morning in America column on Sunday he's not concerned about being ready for Week 1.

    "No," Luck told King when asked if he was worried about not being ready for the season opener. "I certainly believe I will [be ready]. That's certainly the goal."

    go back into the training camp threads and see for yourself. I'm not gonna do your leg work for ya. Heck, he even went thru pre-game warm ups in front of the entire world last week...

     

    You're the one who made the claim so you're the one who should be backing up tour claim. I'm pretty sure I've read the TC threads here and can't recall him saying anything like that last week. Nor did I find anything on google.

    Beyond what we are actually paying in terms of dollars, the question for me is will there be MORE cap hit than what has been previously budgeted in this year or next year?

     

    An accelerator, unable to amortize, or some technicality that shoves more cap into this year or next year.

     

    I suspect a retirement doesn't do that and, at worse, we will having the cap allocation we planned on having the next few years.  At best, some of it goes away.

     

    Do you mena pre-Luck retirement? If yes, we will have lot more cap space. Not so much for this year but it's not like it matters. Next year a lot more.

    He is getting paid this year as well in full, and some for next year.

     

    Comes out to around $80 M I believe.

     

    No, we have cap charge for this year and next, because that money has already been paid to Andrew (his signing bonus that he received in '16 and '17) and looks like Colts don't try to recoup it back.

    Poster That Guy says Lawrence Taylor in ‘86.    Off the top of my head, I would’ve guessed JJ Watt a few years back....

     

    Either way....   it’s rare....

     

     

    Watt was the first runner-up 2014. But lost by 28 votes to Rodgers. No other defensive player has been the first runner-up (or higher) than Watt since LT won over 30 years ago.
