Luck still banged up [Merge]

I think he is taking his recovery slowly and it's what he should do! He got pretty beat up.

 

I get a feeling that his shoulder issue might actually be worse than his kidney issue. I don't know though obviously. 

 

Colts gotta keep him healthy any way they can.

The kidney should not be an issue. I think it's very obvious that the shoulder is the issue even though no one seems to want to say it.

I think he will be fine too I think this is the media just blowing what he said out of proportion they said the Kidney was 100% and that was the week before the super bowl which was more than two months ago and the shoulder should have been healed by the end of the season I think his shoulder was separated and he should have sat more than two games that I hold the colts upper management responsible for they mismanaged the injury from the start and it cost us a playoff spot by seasons end. I think if he is still having limitations he might want to think about going to a hospital to get more MRI's and so on because something is wrong if he isn't healed and 100% by now.

I remember reports / Irsay saying that Luck would have been able to play if we somehow made the playoffs last season and got to the divisional / championship game...

He will be fine. If there was any chance of luck's injury being more serious the NFL media would be all over it and it would be a huge off-season story...

Lacerated kidney and torn abdominal muscles are no joke. I'm sure he was pissing blood for a while. I don't want to jump to conclusions but we may have another long season ahead of us...

I don't think 1/2 of our fan base could survive another season like last year!

Sounds like Lucks injuries were worse than advertised those shoulder injuries can be a problem .

Merged your threads.

 

Training camp doesn't start for several more months.  I think Luck will be 100% by the start of the season

Oh,  for God sake......        :facepalm:

 

That was one of the most painful reads of all time.

 

From....   he'll be fine...   to it's the media's fault...   to what you think his real injuries were....   to you hold the Colts upper management responsible....    to mismanaging the injury...    to it cost us a playoff spot....    to, Luck should go to the hospital and get more MRI's....

 

For the love of God the only thing you didn't accuse the Colts of doing is screwing up the U.S. economy and the nightmare in the Middle East.      But, the day is still young,  you still have time to do that......

 

Wow.....   what a train wreck.....       Sorry,  but there's no other way around it....

haha Tell him how you really feel. I would like to see you get on more people that think the Jags and Titans all of the sudden have become SB contenders. I find that beyond laughable. If the Jags win more than 9 games and Titans win more than 7 games I will go jump in a pond in mid winter wearing only a pair of shorts LOL. Even with a bust Draft but a healthy Andrew I bet we win 9 games at worse. I can see the Texans winning 9 or 10 but Brock isn't getting them in Elite status and they aren't beating us here again either if Andrew is healthy.

It maybe be that for you but its nothing but the truth they brought him back too soon which cost us in the long run and its upper managements fault because the colts have had a terrible line for 4 years and they have ignored it for the same amount of time or signed worthless over the hill players that were not going to help the situation so that is my story and I'm sticking to it. Also the season ended just two and a half months ago we aren't even lose to half way through the offseason yet so yes I believe he will be fine by training camp and if not they will have to do more MRI's and find out whats would be causing him to not be 100%.

Honestly,  I think both J'Ville and Tennessee will be much improved.    I don't think either wins 9 games,  but I think they'll be better.      I wouldn't be surprised if the Colts go 3-3 in conference this season.  

 

We lost to Texas last year.     We lost to J'Ville last year.     And we nearly lost to Tennessee last year.   

 

I'm not predicting we'll go 3-3,  but I won't be surprised if that happens.....

You mean that injury Pagano called a bruised shoulder, negating reports of a subluxation?

 

I don't recall any official injury reports except shoulder, abdomen, and kidney. If it turns out to be something else, the NFL will interested in investigating what, and when, and why ( not reported ) .

The NFL already investigated it: http://www.indystar.com/story/sports/nfl/colts/2015/11/01/report-indianapolis-colts-qb-andrew-luck-dealing-broken-ribs/75001308/

That says they will investigate, andI guess for ribs. Do you have the results?  If Luck isn't healthy, it doesn't add up as in all reported injuries have had more than enough time to heal, AFAIK.

Your 2nd sentence made me do a double take pgt. The unvarnished nature of it. You're probably right. I'm sure there were some unpleasant side effects of all the punishment he took last season. 

 

Please...Please...Please Joe Philbin protect Luck at all costs because INDY will never win a 2nd ring if Andrew takes that kind of a beating the Broncos defense gave him again. 

 

Just heal up Chewbacca & get rid of the football faster. Knock on wood man.

If Indy has another down year, which is definitely possible, Grigson seriously needs to go, and Irsay needs to bring in a creative thinking and bold GM like Tennessee now has in Jon Robinson. Indy needs an influx of young players through the draft, and the GM needs to find creative ways to add draft picks to set this franchise up for the future.

True, if Grigs starts going thru QBs from Sept thru December like we did when Matthew Hasselbeck held down the fort for us, this upcoming season Ryan won't remain here long. I won't call for his contract termination right now, but I hope he has a sense of urgency at the moment for this franchise. I will hold off my final evaluations of Grigson until the end of December. However, my grace period for him is starting to wear thin. I won't deny that.

TBH I'm kinda nervous...

 

I'm not sure how many of you were around when 2011 rolled through here like a train wreck, but leading up to the season, Manning was "Fine" and  no one cared that he didn't play in the pre-season or participate in training camp. Fact is, most (myself included) expected him to start game 1 of the 2011 season, and game 1 came and passed, still the Colts organization said he was progressing towards returning, and wouldn't you know it they never did put him on IR, kept baiting us along all season.

 

I'm not saying Luck has some career altering injury, but ever since, I take that the player is less than 100% after an entire off-season as a HUGE red flag.

Don't know about any results but I assume since nothing has come out and it was back in November, everything checked out. I think Luck is just giving a formalized, cliche' answer.

Two ways that happens:

 

1. Colts have an absolutely horrible year and get a high pick and trade it for more picks.

2. You trade a franchise-level type player (Hershel Walker trade) and get a ton of picks.

 

Otherwise, there really isn't going to be a way to stockpile picks.

Unsurprising really. The kidney and ab muscle tears are serious issues. A friend of mine had similar stuff after a motorcycle accident and he was peeing blood for a at least 2/3 months afterwards. He wasn't right for at least 6 months. No reason Luck shouldn't be ready by OTAs/Camp.

 

The shoulder is the big ongoing issue. Shoulder injures are nasty, a little like knee injuries as they tend to recur, especially when the joint is being used as much as a QBs arm. Depending on what the injury itself actually is (a chipped bone is very different from a fracture or a torn muscle) I can definitely see him being handled tentatively during camp as he gets that arm going again.

The shoulder is a little worrisome especially if it is the same injury from preseason last year . That is a long time for a shoulder injury to still be bothering Luck .

    • Good stuff.  I think we’ll all accept that he’ll still have ups and downs.     And I think we’ll all be holding our breath each time he gets hit.  
    • I'm still on team Ballard, my issues aren't with the secondary. Once Cross figures it out he'll be at least an A- player. He's shown flashes of greatness but hasn't sustained it. My issues with a couple of positions is not necessarily the same as anyone else even Ballard. I think we can improve at RG, MLB and TE. With RG it just seems like the other 4 spots cover it up real good. Was hoping Freeland would ball out this training camp but he didn't. Maybe Goncalves can. Fries to me is a C player, playing higher than he should. I feel the same about Zaire, I think the system makes him look better than he actually is. More athletic LBr with half his smarts could develop alot better. He's a B- player, playing higher than he should. With the TE room I think it'll be better by subtraction. Right now I'm riding on Ogletree and Mallory. I don't think either is starting caliber, but Mallory has a chance to be a real good compliment. At CB I'm not concerned with JJ, he was always be a B player. I don't think Juju will give us the consistency.  All in all I think Ballard has brought the team up as a whole. We need AR to be just at least a B player for us to make noise. Only difference I see now is when it comes to the draft for the next 4 years we need more quality than picks. More 1s and 2s and 7s, less 3-6.   Only my opinion, which I don't think matches alot of us fans.
    • So maybe put my “Why MJ is the GOAT” dissertation in its own thread? /s
    • Is Clark the MVP of the team or is it Mitchell? And the Olympic thing wasn't a big snub. There were great veterans that had earned there shot, she got that.    I've never watched more than a occasional minute of a WNBA game, until now.  Holy Cow has the quality of their athleticism, ball handling, passing, and shooting gotten to such a high level.  Our Fever have improved so much after starting the season with a heavily ladden road schedule bunched in a ridiculous short time period.  They are looking like the Pacers race car offense. Playing faster, harder, since the Olympic break, the defense has also improved a lot.  Clark is the weak link on D and her many league leading bad passes Every game would be the difference in winning tight games in a tough playoff series. Value every possession.  I watch all the games now. And yes, I'm thinking about writing my first ever fan letter and buying her shirt.  Because Kelsey Mitchell has me pumping my arms, laughing for joy, has me giggling and just feeling wow she is awesome, Every game.   As for Clark, she too has improved her game along with everyone around her. She has been pushed to her limits to play faster and harder to compete with the best. It's high level ball, competition, and makes it fun to watch.  Clark had another gear, as needed, and I will be watching because it's exciting. These Ladies can play very intelligent ball. Again, it's impressive.   Next up, Latu!
