mz1888 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I think we should all-time leading receiver and rusher in team history this should be a no brainer....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Yeah we'll probably retire Marvin's number, but probably not Edge's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoolMagnet Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I'm not a big fan of retiring numbers.Heck even #19 wasn't retired.However, if there is one # I'd consider..... its #18. ALL others are secondary, IMO.But I mean no disrespect to Harrison by saying that.If we do take Luck, retiring #18 (the number not Peyton himself) when he's done could be a way for everyone to move forward.

The Fish Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I hope we retire Jim Caldwell's number soon too! That would be swell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swflacoltsfans Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I agree with retiring Marvin's, but not JA.Peyton of course should be retired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmelcolt Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 As much as i enjoyed watching Edge (pre-knee) injury, not sure if he had really done enough or been with the organization long enough to get his jersey retired Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mz1888 Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 As much as i enjoyed watching Edge (pre-knee) injury, not sure if he had really done enough or been with the organization long enough to get his jersey retired7 years with the colts, The colts all-time leading rusher with 9226 yards. Second is Mitchell with 5487. He is 11th all-time in rushing yards..... He had 5 of his 7 1,000 yards seasons after his knee surgery. So not to sure what your talking about.... Not sure what edge you were watching but he should be in the hall when his time comes...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTC Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I don't see us retiring Marvin's or Edgerrin's number, IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21isSuperman Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 The league really discourages teams from retiring numbers. The only number I could see us retiring would be 18, but nothing else...though that isn't to say Edge and Marvin don't deserve it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bavanlan Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Marvin had #88 because we never retired John Mackey's number.That trend should continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unitaswestand Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I dont see it happening, as was pointed out by bavanlan. John Mackey was also #88. And for James, Mike Curtis was possibly the best middle linebacker the Colts have ever had and they didn't retire #32 for him. 18 I think is more likely because it is not a number that has been associated with great Colts other than Manning.

Not sure what edge you were watching but he should be in the hall when his time comes......I agree with all that, but not retiring his number. Not Harrison either. But I think he might belong on the wall with Harrison and Peyton. Wish he could have been here a couple more years. That was quite a trio. The three of them truly built the base of the success of this organization. In fact, I'm gonna watch some Manning / Harrison / Edge from the glory days right now I think.

And he did. Colts or I must say, Polian, let him go because running backs are a dime a dozen. Well we have seen they arent. He could be still playing and retire a colt. Addai had one good year with Rhodes, that was it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's too many to have retired already. To have your number retired you need to be a player that transformed the game, became a champion, and went down as one of the greatest to ever play. IMO only two Colts should have their numbers retired. Unitas and Manning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
