Moose Of Woe Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 If he misses 5-6 weeks or more there is no point in even playing him this season. We'll be 0-? at that point and in quite the hole to realistically expect him to dig us out of.Let him heal up fully and get some high draft picks - including Andrew Luck.If there is a bright side to all of this, IF he sits the haters can finally shut up about who the best QB/MVP of the league is. Our other QB's will get ruined behind this O line, the D "may" win us a game or two, and special teams? lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil J Posted September 5, 2011 Author Share Posted September 5, 2011 of course all this news broke like 5 minutes after our FF draft was over. and THIS GUY took P Money.my wife got tom terrific and already told me there is no way she is making a trade. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susie Q Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 predictions? I say they keep him shelved until Week 3 with the Steelers. rumors are until november. yikes.Well I hate to say this because I have been a fan for many years but I say keep him out until he can recover completely. Won't make many fans happy but why let him play and take a chance on ending his career. I myself would rather have a completely healthy Manning even if our year sucks. JMO of course but wouldn't all the fans feel awful if he played before being healed and ended up messed up for life. Please don't bash this because we all have our individual thoughts.

Susie Q Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 how much you wanna bet they're gonna say it will be a last min call on game day?Well what could you say until the other evaluations are done. I'm sure he will get the best evaluations available and then Peyton will have more answers as to why he isn't healing as he should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2011 MVP 5 Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Colts release this statementIndianapolis Colts Statement on Peyton Manning’s StatusIn response to a number of media inquiries, the Colts issue the following update on Peyton Manning’s status. During the last week, the rate of improvement in Peyton’s rehabilitation process slowed. Over the weekend Peyton experienced soreness in his back. It was originally thought to be a normal reaction to his rehabilitation regimen. When the soreness persisted, the Colts medical team decided to initiate diagnostic tests and to consult with a number of specialists around the country who have been involved in Peyton’s case from the outset. That process continues. As a result of the most recent development the doctors have decided that Peyton will not practice. His participation therefore, in Sunday’s game versus Houston will likely be doubtful. We will update his playing status as required by NFL policy as the week goes on.At the conclusion of the diagnostic process, if there are any new developments in the prognosis which we outlined for Peyton at the start of training camp we will report them. As of now Peyton continues to deal with a complicated neurological recovery, the end date of which is unpredictable. As was stated at the outset, it serves no useful purpose to speculate about hypothetical outcomes. When and if there are concrete medical facts to report we will do so. We appreciate your consideration in this matter.I personally still believe Peyton will have his hands under Jeff Saturdays butt come sunday. Although I think it will be a last min decision.

DILLIGAFER Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Colts.com has already addressed it. Hes out. Complications and back pain. Hes gonna go IR I bet.

Phil J Posted September 5, 2011 Author Share Posted September 5, 2011 so nothing new other than the fact that because of the sore back we heard about yesterday, he has stopped practicing.and that his status is now "doubtful" as opposed to "questionable".

DILLIGAFER Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Oh come on. Hes out folks. Baring some miraculous recovery sparked by the heavens above, he's out. They are worried, as am I. Ask anyone who knows me and Im the Biggest P. Manning fan they know. I don't like it. But let's not sugar coat it. I have had neck issues in the same area same side, same problems as P. Manning. Took me a year to recover and I still have some pain occasionally. Time is the only thing that heals these injuries. Time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy_nick Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 This is yet another downfall of the lockout. If we actually had a full off-season, I feel like Manning would have had this surgery early in the off-season and he could have worked with the Colts trainers. Instead, he pushed the surgery up for later in the summer, and now we are not sure when he is going to play. I'm just hoping this isn't the beginning of the end for the Manning era. I hadn't prepared myself for a terrible season. I was hoping I would have to wait 5 years before that would happen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViriLudant Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 I honestly hope that Peyton's up and healthy ASAP. The NFL isn't as much fun without him, and it's never a true Colts/Patriots game unless both Peyton and Tom are in the lineup.Hope that he gets well soon.

Coffeedrinker Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 if they try to stop us running collins can go deep, we are not done, we can still competeDon't you know jim that Manning is the only player on the team that would be playing in the NFL if it weren't for the Colts? The Colts team is made up of Manning and a bunch of guys who were lucky to play in college.Okay sure, you could argue that the Colts starters, with Painter at QB, beat the Packer's starters in the 3rd preseason game but then the front office cut all the players that were responsible for that win.The team should just do what the fans want and forfeit every game until Manning comes back because there is no chance they can win any games. :coffee: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farns01 Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 This stinks, but on a positive note as said before without Peyton we are entered in to the Andrew Luck sweepstakes. This will also give our rookie tackles experience without putting Peyton in harms way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
