Andrew Luck abdominal tear out 2 to 6 weeks (Merge)

[John Waylon]

You have GOT to be %ting me.

Unreal.

Un-freaking-real.

[C0lts088]

Why!! Why are the football gods mad at Luck!

[superrep1967]

not surprised. he took a beating. if it is only two weeks, he should be back by the falcon game

Maybe but he won't be able to practice.

[NagelHausForge]

Welp... At least Hasselbeck has 2 weeks to get ready for the next game! 

 

I guess we will see how bad it is an how long Luck is actually out.

 

Either way, I think Hasselbeck will keep the ship afloat until Luck can return... Next 3 games aren't too daunting.

[twfish]

Dang it just when I thought we were gunna get through an entire week without a fire Grigs and chuck thread...

[GoColts8818]

If it's the two weeks given this week is the bye week and the Falcons game that's not the end of the world but two weeks doesn't sound long enough for this to heal but I am not a doctor.

[Bravo]

Nobodies fault here really.

Luck took off scrambling on some plays and didn't slide on a couple. Can't help it sometimes. Andrew Luck has been getting beat up this year.

[CR91]

Maybe but he won't be able to practice.

 

thats not a major deal. hilton didnt practice and he played

[Mr.Debonair]

Meh. Our schedule isn't TOO bad now. I'm confident Matt can get us a few wins.

Everyone said the same before the season of the first 5 games

[will426]

Lol this year is literally the death of Andrew luck and Big Ben..

[lollygagger8]

[AndrewQB1]

Looked hurt during the press conference, breathing like a dying dog. I hope all is well soon!

[Mr.Debonair]

I knew that hit on the Bradshaw TD drive was a nasty one. Pretty sure it happened then

[James Harden]

Injury bug strikes again....unbelievable.....Luck is a tough warrior. I say he comes back for the Tampa game. Good thing we have Hasselbeck. We are going to be fine. 

[Superman]

[pacolts56]

Pagano's fault.

[Ja'Crispy]

something positive!?!??!?!? how dare you

[csmopar]

NO * WAY!

 

Just when we get a glimmer of hope.....SOB SOB SOB

[Defjamz26]

At least we have a bye week. That'll buy us some time. I'm not surprised. He took some vicious shots on Sunday. And with how dirty they played, I wouldn't be surprised if the Broncos were purposely trying to injure him.

He's been beaten up beyond belief this season. Although he was injured on a scramble, I wonder if this will open eyes about the OL.

[deedub75]

Without him running the ball when he did, we lose that game. He took the team on his back and paid for it.

[John Waylon]

Please stahp 2015. Just leave us alone.

This but also wonder if it could have been a combo of the late hits he took that if he was wearing a different #12 jersey would have gotten us the calls we deserved.

[18Manning]

I suppose there's still a chance we can make the playoffs.

[Chucklez]

I dont think this is actually season ruining... It's a shame it happened just as Andrew seemed to be finding his groove, but I trust Hasselbeck to win at least 3 of those 5 games, assuming Luck is out the full 6 weeks...

If Pittsburgh have big Ben back, that might be a guaranteed loss, but Tampa, Jax and Houston "SHOULD" be wins.... I think Hasselbeck could manage the Falcons game considering their recent form...

4 - 1 in that stretch with Hasselbeck in isnt an insane or crazy suggestion...

It also still leaves Luck up to 6 weeks to read through Chuds playbook, with a minimum of 2 games to get some groove going actually playing in this offense in the run up to the playoffs.....

[SilentHill]

Now we know why there is an open roster spot, here comes a QB

[CR91]

I dont think theres a tougher SOB in the game then luck.

[Restored]

Now we know why there is an open roster spot, here comes a QB

 

They'll get a QB but they're gonna ride with Hasselbeck.

I agree. I think we still have a chance of making the playoffs. Luck can heal and get some rest.

[Pelt]

Hate to hear this, but football aside, just get back to full health, big guy.

[AllYouNeedIsLuck]

I suppose there's still a chance we can make the playoffs.

Oh, definitely

[Superman]

Please stahp 2015. Just leave us alone.

 

I now officially blame Dwayne Allen for his 'dream team' comment in the offseason. Someone, bring me his head.

[18Manning]

There was one play in particular where he was hit by 2 defenders (at the end of one of his runs). I cringed when it happened.

[GoColts8818]

Without him running the ball when he did, we lose that game. He took the team on his back and paid for it.

yep risks you take by having him do that. It's a football thing. The one thing they could do is get someone from the Indians to teach him to slide. With that said most of those runs on Sunday he needed to dive to try to get first downs. It stinks but it happens.

Hopefully he's out closer to two weeks and Matt can hold down the fort for a week or two. He's proven he can do that and is a high quality backup. It's not like they are going to Painter back there.

[pgt_rob]

Luck is a tough guy. I'm sure he was peeing blood with a lacerated kidney. I'm glad we have Hasselbeck as our back up.

[Architects08]

Lacerated kidney ended Keenan Allen's season. What's the difference, does anyone know?

[Moncrief]

2 weeks.  We have our bye right next week.  Optimist in me says he won't miss a game and be there for the Falcons game

I'd rather have the head of Ryan Grigson......the dumb*** gm who failed to protect Luck........AGAIN!  

[CR91]

would you like it on a pike or a silver platter

[CamMo]

Does he need the kidney? Can't they just remove it and get on with it? We NEED HIM TO WIN THE SUPERBOWL!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kidding. Poor guy. Wishing him a speedy (complete) recovery. I can only imagine how much a lacerated kidney must suck.
