I hope the oline can protect him against the Texans D

Shouldn't be broadcasting this....should have kept it down to a game time decision, make the Dolphins game plan for either QB

We play the Texans prior to the Dolphins. Irsay is anticipating Luck back for the Texans, at that point Miami would already know. 

[2006Coltsbestever]

I believe we need Andrew to beat the Texans the way they are playing. Hopefully he comes out guns a blazing like he did vs the Broncos. It just adds to the drama. I bet Texans fans are like, we cant catch a break

[CR91]

I was hoping to have him back vs the jags oh well. hopefully castanzo and dorsett will be ready to go as well. getting healthy at the right time

Hope we're 9-5 going into that game, and Andrew paving the way to the Playoffs from Week 15.

I was focusing on what will happen once AL comes back(2nd Half of Statement)

 

I agree with 1st Half

I see your point there too. We already have 5 losses. Oh well it's early in the afternoon.

Jags? Why? They lost again today and are 2 wins behind. Even if they beat us, they will still be behind us. Besides, we can beat them with Matt. 

[ColtsBlueFL]

I still have the feeling Luck will be Questionable by the Texans game (50%, game day decision type of thing). But should be Probable ( >90% chance ) for the Dolphins game.  I don't see anybody rushing him in before it is certain he is 100% recovered from the kidney laceration.  The risk is not worth it in the organization, so they'll await medical team full clearance. The abdominal muscle pull/partial tear I'm less worried about.  My hope is no setbacks, so he plays sooner rather than later.

[Gavin]

Sounds good. Lets hope he plays better when he comes back because I'm by no means opposed to benching him for some of the decisions he made passing earlier in the season till he gets his head on straight and stops watching so many Brett Favre highlights(And I say that with Favre being my 2nd favorite QB of all time behind Peyton) but watches some Peyton Manning highlights from earlier in his career

That Denver game showed me he was back to his previous 3 seasons. That was enough for me, it just stunk he got injured.

We won't be 9-5.      How do I know this?    

Because if Luck is back in week 15,  then the Colts will have 3 games left to play.     Meaning they'll have only played 13 games, and not 14.

Remember,  back week 15 is not the same as back for the 15th game.    Don't forget the bye week.....

"Don't forget the bye week....."

Knock to the noggin. I sure did! 

[Jules]

OMG yes please come back now.

I love Hasselbeck but WE NEED ANDREW.

[King Colt]

The schedule does not arrant bringing back Luck. Maybe a quarter or two at best . Hasselbeck can win the upcoming games and we don't have to win out from here on in. 

[krunk]

I really wish he could be back by the Texans game instead.  This is a funny place we find ourselves in I tell you that.

[krunk]

According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Colts quarterback Andrew Luck could be back as early as Week 15 against the Houston Texans.

#Colts owner Jim Irsay told me he believes QB Andrew Luck will be back for Week 15 vs. the #Texans. Week 16 vs. #Dolphins at the latest

 Soundss just like what I thought and posted earlier-

"I still have the feeling Luck will be Questionable by the Texans game (50%, game day decision type of thing). But should be Probable ( >90% chance ) for the Dolphins game. "

That's within typical timetables for that injury.

[ColtsBlueFL]

On certain injuries, it's out of the coaches hands when a player returns.  Here is Ron Rivera, HC of the Panthers getting extremely vigorous in his reply to a reporter concerning the health information he supplied earlier, and how he is/was forthright and everything else is not his call.  Watch him reveal the 'new NFL' in the concussion age...
