Just Heard Peyton Was Throwing The Ball Around To Receivers Today! (Merge)

[vitoaf27]

Also, is it peculiar that the Colts have the day off today? I'm sure it has to do with the new rules in the CBA, but it used to be that the guys only got the day off on MONDAYS and ONLY if we won that Sunday. It's a TUESDAY and we LOST Sunday. Perhaps therein lies the problem: we're not practicing enough due to the new CBA rules.

It's funny. Prior to this season, I took Manning SO for granted. I thought he was impossible to injure, he would never miss a start, we would have him until he's 40+, etc. Boy how that has changed. This is excellent news. I will never take Peyton for granted again; I will cherish every single snap he takes with the Colts for the rest of his career.

+ 1 x 10^10

I share in your expression of appreciation!

Teams have always had Tuesday as their day off from practice.

Really nice to finally hear some good news for a change.

Best news in a long time! Can't wait to see Manning run out onto the field on game day!!

Bad news for those of you who were hoping he'd retire. (Yes, there are those on these boards who sound borderline excited to move on from Manning.)

[JoKeR]

I hope he's not done but this news doesn't mean anything. We probably wont know anything till late January. Knowing our luck, his status will be questionable until after the draft.

14 minutes for the negativity to start. Unbelievable. If we can't be optimistic about this, what do we have to optimistic about? Sorry, but the thought of the G.O.A.T. making major strides toward returning excites me more than the prospect of drafting an unproven QB.

YeaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Im not negative but this isn't a major stride in his recovery, its just part of his recovery. Now if he threw a 40 yard fastball and hit Wayne in the numbers I would be estatic. But this is just a simple exercise.

Best news I've heard all season!

Yes you are correct, but you must start rehab somewhere & this is how it starts. If Peyton continues to improve & regain strength our Colts maybe golden again.

[JoKeR]

Im glad he started the next faze of his rehab but it was fully expected.

Were not in the clear yet folks.

[Mameluc]

lets just have a lil faith.

[JoKeR]

Actually, I expect him to fully recover.

[LaughingAtIrsay]

Thank you Tebow... I mean Jesus!!!

[Fx Stryker]

almost everyone of the first comments have positive feedback. You get down further then dn has -7. rotfl

[Bond Shane]

Peyton will recover, play football and will win a SB before he retires.

I am not a Nostradamus but pure instinct.

I totally agree. I just want him back on the field in 2012!!!

[Malakai432]

Thank you Tebow... I mean Jesus!!!

Lol!!!!!!!

[nsurg]

Okay...lets all calm down, yes it's nice he is throwing, but lets see him do it in back to back days and after a week or so without any physical issues. This is going to be a long process, Peyton is taking baby steps and lets not get to excited just yet.

Wow, 7 negatives so far for this post with a firm grip on reality? The truth can be unpopular. I agree, though, it's the only good news we've heard so far, but being allowed to begin low-impact throwing again in December was entirely predictable (search my posts for why).

Kinda like up here near Chicago when Michael Jordan retired and then came back..

Everybody watched every second of every game,..

....there was the realization that these guys will retire sooner than later..

NOBODY is saying it wasn't "predictable" just that we're relieved and thrilled that he's making his comeback. It's been a crap year, let us get excited about something!

[Coltsman1788]

NICE to hear that Peyton is starting to throw again to team mates. God is good! Praying that his rehab goes well and he is able to make it all the way back.
