HitStick21 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Seriously can the Mods do something about these threads now? Its ridiculous. A source with knowledge of the situation- In all fairness, this is being retweeted from actuall higher ups now. Glazer from NFLN, all of our local media now is bought into it after not biting on it, just waiting for Schefter at this point. I LOVED Caldwells quote in that article... or it might have been the one below it. "Obvious it has some truth to it, or Irsa wouldn't have said it" bwhahahahahaha in reference to P being out "awhile". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

presto123 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Once again I'll say looks like JMV was the first to break this and was right all along. He must have some great sources as he reported this 3-4 days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HitStick21 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Not a big surprise, I guess..That means 8-12 more weeks..right???Can we go 5-5 ??Odds are it will be 6-8 for full recovery if ALL goes right + Rehab is perfect. I think 12 would be doomsday scenario. Whatev, Collins and the team can do this. Did anyone not catch Robert Mathis's tweets last night? The defense is absolutely P'd OFF that all people can do is talk about how terrible the Colts will be. He blew up last night, I'm prediciting the defense of Week 2 VS NYG to show up this weekend. Those are some angry, angry men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gagirl89 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 · Hidden Hidden Right. Because you're forced to read all of them.So what part of 80's era communist Russia are you from?Stranger danger! Calm down, I'm allowed to be annoyed if the boards are being flooded with "my friends cousins uncles third wifes sons daughter said her sources". No I don't read them all and if this is confirmed by the Colts organization not espn sources or blogs or podcasts or random links, and people retweeting from their twits then I'll eat crow. Until then, I shall remained annoyed. Thanks Link to comment
oldunclemark Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 STICK..I can see us going 5-5...beating Cleveland, KC Cinncinatti, Jacksonville, Tennessee..If we beat Houston (a long shot, I know)...we can be undefeated in DIVISION play going into the bye week. Nov. 20..and we play Carolina on Thanksgiving weekend coming out of the break...Folks..all is NOT lost...10-6, 6-0 in division and we're in...9-7 and 5-1 in the division...Would that be good enough????

HitStick21 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Doctors said it would be the best situation. He already has had the surgery and is recovering (from what Mort has heard) Will update as info pours in. Let's go Colts baby!EDIT:Surgery was this morning. Spinal, cervical fusion of the same vertebrae. Dr. Caplan called this surgery a, "Career Saver". Will take two-three months for this to heal, all considering a "perfect" healing. Colts will try to keep him active incase we make the Playoffs, THIS is when he could be back. Sorry all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HitStick21 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I know everyone right now is just thinking how long will he be out :sMort still had details streaing in via the Colts so it has been postponed on information, but it is offical.Initial prognosis is, "Unsure" about returning this year.

presto123 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I still think if JMV wouldn't have broke the story the Colts would still be saying the rehab is coming along smoothly.Why are they so secretive? They owe it to the fans to answer this question with an official statement or something. Makes you wonder if they were just trying to sell some more tickets before they drop the hammer. If Peyton does have another surgery before they even tell the press about it I think it will make them look bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restored Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Man I really hope he can be back by week 9-8. If he is out the whole the year this could be a long one. Need him to be back asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steagles Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I kind of find this to be a blessing in disguise. Remembering back, I recall the "choking under pressure" according to the media. Now that our backs are against the wall with our future Hall of Fame QB out 2/3 of the season, we have everything to prove, and I think the team can produce 10 wins if Collins can play well every week.

Balzer40 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 NFL network reporting right now he had his 3rd procedure this morning and is out at the very least 3 months.I expect the team to IR him before long.

Mrfox Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 http://uscspine.com/treatment/posterior-fusion.cfmReturn to Work and SportsPatients may return to light work duties as early as 2-4 weeks after surgery, depending on when the surgical pain has subsided. Patients may return to moderate level work and light recreational sports as early as 3 months after surgery, if the surgical pain has subsided and the neck strength and mobility has returned appropriately with physical therapy. Patients who have undergone cervical fusion at only one level may return to heavy lifting and sports activities if the surgical pain has subsided and the neck strength and mobility has returned appropriately with physical therapy. Patients who have undergone cervical fusion at two or more levels are generally recommended to avoid heavy lifting, laborious work, and impact sports.http://morphopedics.wikidot.com/cervical-fusion-mid-cervicalPhase 3 (3 months post-op)■Patient may progress to resistance exercises, strengthening, and stretching of the upper extremities■Patient is advised not to lift more than 22 lbs. until one year post-op.

WSO Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 at the least 3 months so early december. . .thats a good chunk of the seasonFunny enough the first game of December is against the Patriots I would love to see Manning come back for that game. But then again NFLN reported at the last so more realistically maybe week 14-16 or at the worst he goes to IR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatMcAfeeFan Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 this sucks. I hope he gets better.

chad72 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Wow, I might start paying more attention to JMV, he seems to be spot on a few days before the story generally breaks.I have listened to JMV for the longest time, when he was on 1260 AM before he moved to ESPN Radio on 1070 AM The Fan. He has always struck me as a man who hesitates to make anything up unless he has a reliable source. He also gives his listeners ample opportunities to take a crack at him or make other comments without berating them, he believes in genuine discussion in my experience. I have called in several times myself and it is worth the wait to get on to his show, sometimes it takes 40 minutes on hold . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HitStick21 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 There's no doubt about it. Why take chances? He is done for the season.Don't want to be the grim reaper either, but Manning is done for the season. A "perfect" recovery, puts him on track for playoffs. Just do not see it happening. That being said, this surgery was labled a "Career saver", that will extend Peytons shelf life. Yeah baby, lets win it this season and then repeat next year with the boss back.

John Waylon Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Pretty sure we'll end up sending him to IR, or keep him active with no hope of him playing the way we have Gonzalez and Sanders in seasons past... Either way, we won't see him until next year IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our line is still going to be pretty bad, and Kerry can't get rid of the ball fast enough and avoid pressure with his mobility. He's going to take some good hits, and I wouldn't be surprised to see him get hurt this year, leading to.... A start by painter...Boy, Collins just started looking a whole lot better over those 16 games, didn't he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
