Go Blue Horseshoe Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I can certainly understand that he is frustrated, just like everyone else on the team I'm sure, but I hope that he will hang in there until next season. Hopefully Manning will be back, and things will be back to normal. We need Reggie on the team. He is such an assest, such a valuable weapon on the offensive side. I would hate to see him go, but I guess he has to do whatever is right for him. Whatever he does, I wish him the best. It would sure be weird to see him in anything excpt Indy blue, however.

swflacoltsfans Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I wonder if he is still backing Painter. Maybe a few bounced balls his way changed his mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Every other team in the game has a qb that can get Reggie the ball. I don't see why his production is a factor. Painter is just turrible, I don't think people will forget that when lookin to bring in an elite WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supremecoltsfan300 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Well i guess that is goodbye. We wont and shouldnt break the bank to keep an aging receiver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21isSuperman Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I certainly hope he stays, but not at a high price. And I don't like his attitude towards it. "I'm not going to make it easy on them"? I know it's a business, but be open to negotiations. Keep your price too high and you could have a guy like Mark Sanchez throwing you the ball or end up on a team that doesn't make the playoffs until after you retire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil J Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 the two big casualties from this year will be Wayne and Mathis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatboyslim11 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 the two big casualties from this year will be Wayne and Mathis. I agree. It is not a good sign that the Colts and Wayne and Mathis haven't been able to negotiate their contracts. Wayne will definitely be gone if the team drafts Luck because that will be clear sign that we will be in rebuilding mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super8todd Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 .....There's not a lot of place he can go for the money he wants...(..although NewEngland is probably one)THere are plenty of places he can go and will go. Other teams have the money to burn, even for an aging great receiver. Now, with news that Manning is thinking of retiring... Wayne is already as good as gone.

chad72 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Hate to say this - if Peyton retires, Wayne is gone and he may go to a team like the Chargers who need the underneath possession wideout that runs good routes. Crayton ain't cutting it and Gates is a TE. Floyd is always banged up. Plus, I saw Rivers and Wayne play at the Pro Bowl and felt Rivers felt secure going for Wayne as a target whenever Rivers was in there. I can definitely see Wayne going to one of those teams that need a wideout to put them at a consistently high level of offense.I can also see Wayne re-uniting with his U fellas in Santana Moss and Leonard Hankerson with the Redskins.

chad72 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I agree...I didn't like that statement either.Maybe Wayne feels unappreciated for the money he has been paid recently, around $6 mil. a year while elite wideouts get in the range of $9-10 mil. a year. He may have meant that he won't come cheap but all the frustration of losing and uncertain future may have resulted in what he said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manningstheman Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I like Reggie, He is hard nosed and will take a hit. He has the fingers to prove it. But, I am sorry Reggie, he is to old to be acting like that. Either he stays or goes now. I am sure the team would love to have him back as a leader, but he isnt the same Reggie of old. It just is scary to think the Garcon might be our best reciever from now on. Collie isnt the same, but that might just be Painter always looking Reggies way. But, I am just not big on Garcon. He drops way to many important passes. Although, so has Reggie lately. I sure hope we can get a big, quick reciever in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitto Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Watching that highlight of reggie only makes me miss peyton even more... if or when peyton comes back it could start of rocky by i could see some good times for the colts... with peyton the colts always seemed like a team to go undefeated... Wayne is a great WR but there's no doubt that he is getting old and right now the colts dont need a possesion receiver they need a threat on the outside, it would be great if he comes back cheap but if he's expensive then yea let him go.

JoKeR Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 It doesn't sound like he's open to negotiate and wants to play somewhere else. Its a dreadful season but I really don't understand his attitude. Next year Caldwell and staff will probably be history and Wayne will have Manning or a really good rookie throwing to him.

IndyTrav Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 See ya Reg. Glad to have had you here.Im not upset in the slightest though. Did anyone see his broken wheels on that breakaway TD against Car? After the DBs took themselves out, Reggie took off, was quickly caught, broke what we will call a 'tackle' and ended up in the endzone. I think around the 10yd mark he really let up, but when he's in the open field he was moving in slow mo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now Reggie needs to play the but Mannings not here card, it seems to working for everyone else' job security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
