Uh oh.
Duck. And I will pray for you.
I always forget......despite being 36, coming off 4 neck surgeries, and not playing a real game since January of 2011, Peyton Manning will not miss a beat when he plays his first real game next month.
-
Luck is showing some superiority over RG3 and Manning so far in the preseason..
Impossible. I've been told that Manning (with his stellar 0 TD 3 INT preseason, so far) is throwing the ball better than ever!
-
Time to send him on his way. The guy now gets cuncussed if a fan blows on him too hard. An injured player is a worthless player. He's about as dependable as Clark, Addai, Brackett, Bullitt, Sanders and the rest of those stallion Polian cornerstones.
-
Good thing that a game consists of more than one play.
-
No but they do have a running back that can slow down our pass rush by just running the ball. I would love it if we could beat the Bears but I still think it's unlikely that we do but I would agree we have shot which is all you can really ask for.
Agreed, we really have nothing to lose in that game.
-
Wouldn't be surprised if Avery gets cut.
-
Of course we pay attention, but of the 2 million people living here, not all are football fans. I'm personally not afraid of Manning. The guy is great to watch, even if he does have a pretty good record against my team. For the record, the last time I checked, the only person who owns the Texans is named Bob McNair. Unless Manning is dipping into the business side of the NFL now?
lol.....yeah, 16-2 is "pretty good"
-
I think he was referring to your belief that the entire city is afraid of Peyton Manning, not how badly he "owns" the Texans.
If what I said "couldn't be further from the truth" then Texan fans really must not pay very close attention to how incompetent they are against him & must really be fond of losing!
I don't think a single player has ever owned a franchise more, in any sport, than Peyton Manning owns the Houston Texans. I mean, look at those numbers, for Christ's sake!
-
LOL that couldn't be further from the truth. But think what you like.
lol.....look at you being silly
Peyton Manning career numbers vs the Houston Texans:
16-2 Record
5122 Yards
42 TD Passes (9 Int)
67% Completion %
105.2 QB Rating
Yeah, he doesn't own the Houston Texans. Usain Bolt isn't fast, either
-
I was at work when I heard the good news that he'd been released.
-
Wouldn't it be ironic if the Colts and Texans split their games, both end up at 9-7, and (one of the) tie breakers giving the Colts the AFC South championship is the Manning- led Broncos beating the Texans in week 3?
That would fit right along with the how badly Manning has owned the Houston Texans over his career. The entire city of Houston is scared
of Peyton Manning.....it's really quite pathetic. -
Did anyone else see this on NFL AM on nfl network this morning?
They mainly talked about "arm strength" being the reason.
Many just don't think Manning will last the season I guess.
Also, "better" is a relative term.
Luck only needs to have a "good" season, while Manning is expected to lead the broncos to the Super bowl.
I think It is hilarious to compare them at this point, but I guess its been a slow news day.
Luck no doubt will have a better season than Peyton Manning.
Alot of people seem to forget/don't want to admit that Manning is A) on the wrong side of his 30's, B) coming off of 4 neck surgeries and C) hasn't played a real NFL game since January of 2011.
People act as if though he will just pick up right where he left off 19 months ago. It ain't gonna happen.
-
Agreed.....al
All three are in in my opinion
Agreed.....I think all 3 will make the final roster.
-
I almost completely agree.
I don't think Chapman will be healthy at all this year, and will therefore be on IR. Anunoby will take his place.
I don't see Nsekhe making the roster. I bet we only keep 9 OL, and keep 9 LB.....so I see Lloyd making it in place of Nsekhe.
Yours is a pretty realistic roster, though.
-
Since I live 1000 miles away.....no.
-
Since you say so, it must be true.
I have no attachment to Hicks. He's Gavin's guy. I just don't think the fact that he's a UDFA is the reason he hasn't gotten a lot of publicity in camp or time on the field.
It is true whether I say it or not. Look it up.
-
Good point, Andrews is 100% sure he will make a full recovery. And then the short, fat guys knee blows out again. So then... our general knowledge about knees and football makes us look wiser than...
Maybe you should save this comment if/when "short, fat guys knee blows out again"
As of right now, Andrews is right and you are wrong.
-
UDFAs make rosters and do well in the NFL all the time.
For every one that does there are 100 that don't.
Hayworth Hicks will be one of those 100.
-
the whole "well, the team was built around peyton" is a * argument. the colts stunk because his drafting went into the tank, he had a disdain for free agencey, and hired mediocre coaches.
Exactly.....look at his last 5 drafts, for Christ's sake. Complete and utter incompetence.
-
I like Hicks but he hasnt seemed to catch the coaches eye and I also feel like he didnt do anything spectacular to me once the lights were on yesterday, he didnt do anything to get cut in my opinion and played alright
Yeah, he hasn't caught the coaches eye for the same reason that he didn't catch the eye of every GM in the NFL, all of whom passed on him in every round of the draft : he lacks the requisite combination of skills to play in the NFL.

You completely missed the point of my post, I never said he would be fine, I am just saying it will take time for him to get back into football shape and back to full strength with no training camp for him, no practices, and no chemistry developed with the D Line, When Chapman finally returns I dont expect him to come right in and dominate, it would be great but first he needs to beat out Antonio Johnson, Mckinney and Anunoby all of which have gotten off to a good start at that position, Chapman has a long road ahead of him from the looks of it, if at full strength and getting back into game shape and developing chemistry with the rest of the D Line then he can do it, But I dont think he will just be thrown right out their based on potential when others that I have mentioned will have had 6 games on him of showing what they can do.
No, it is YOU who completely missed the point of MY post.
You said, and I quote: "his (Chapman's) weight combined with his injury scares me as a fan."
Your above quote is the only thing I commented on.
To reitterate, my response is that one of the top orthopedic surgeons on earth, a man who has 1000x more knowledge on the subject than everyone on this message board combined, has never so much as mentioned that Chapmans weight nor this injury will at all impact his long term ability to play NFL football. In fact, he's gone on record to say the opposite: that Chapman will make a full recovery.
So, again, my money is on James Andrews' viewpoint being the correct one as opposed to yours.
-
We rushed Ijalana back (even though he "cleared" medical) and he ended up on IR with the same knee giving out. I believe anything less than 12 months following an ACL, particularly with the truly large people on offensive and defensive line, is pushing the envelope on their rehabilitation. I actually hope they IR Chapman and he has the opportunity to go through a full training camp after fully rehabbing his knee.
Although that doesn't necessarily mean Ijalana reinjured his knee because he was rushed back.
That being said, I agree with you in that I hope they are EXTREMELY cautious with Chapman, and I too would be fine if he was IR'd.
-
My guess is he will be back week 6 BUT with that said that does not necessarily mean he will be affective or even starting at that point for a couple reasons
1.No Training Camp
2.No Pre Season
3.We have only been through week 1 of the pre season but Mookie and Mckinney both did exceptionally well
4.Anunoby did well
5.How much strength will he have in that knee
Chapman was a pretty good player at Alabama but his weight combined with his injury scares me as a fan.
Dr James Andrews, probably the premier orthopedic surgeon in this country, says he'll be fine, so i'll take his opinion over that of any fan.

Far from it.
How does your logic explain Kurt Warner?
If the talent is always there..
Why did the Packers cut him?
That's pretty easy question: because they misevaluated. Quite obviously. Misevaluations happen by all the time, by every team, every season. Unless your telling me he didn't become "talented" until 1998. So, it's the Packers fault that they didn't identify and develop that talent, cause the physical tools were there, like they are for anyone at that stage.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around your statement that talent leads to production, yet Jeff George, who went on the throw for 27000 yards and 154 touchdowns, WASN'T talented in 1991 with a 73.8 qb rating, and yet Peyton Manning WAS talented in 1998 with a 71.2 qb rating.
of Peyton Manning.....it's really quite pathetic.
Give the offensive line some props

Really? I, for one, thought Hayworth Hicks would be starting at LG this season. He clearly has all the tools
