** ESPN’s Chris Mortensen has confirmed that Colts QB Peyton Manning underwent another neck surgery this morning. Mort called it a “cervical fusion” and says Manning is expected to be out another 2-3 months. No word yet on whether the team will place him on IR, but it has to be considered a possibility. Even the short end of that timetable would knock Manning out for the first 8 or 9 weeks – and that’s assuming he’s ready to play immediately after being cleared by doctors. Kerry Collins is Indianapolis’ starter for the foreseeable future
They aren't saying he is done for the year, just 2-3 months. If somehow they manage to stay close they won't IR him hoping he can come back if they make the playoffs. At least they won't for awhile.
I don't know what that means, but whatever it is I'm not. I just said they won't be the worst team in the league, they can win some games and that's it. Don't try to put words in my mouth.
easy there... its a running joke. nothing disparaging towards you. click a few threads in the TT forum, you'll get it suffice to say, you're not alone in your thinking.
2-3 moths... not on IR yet... hope he's healthy for wk 13 vs the Pats! Sucks we get to play Houston with their new D and the PAts will play the Colts prob without Manning.
At the risk of sounding cliched we cannot be worried about what the Pats are doing and just focus on winning and start with week 1. Fuck the Patriots, fuck Houston, let them start fearing us.
The New England Pastes are destined to lead the NFL in wins, raise the envied and coveted something trophy that division winners hoist and then forget how to play versus good teams in the playoff tournament. Dynasty.
If it's a forgone conclusion then why the fuck bother playing the regular season? Lets just give everyone the W/L record that ESPN and NFL Network predicts and start the damn playoffs already?
so what you're saying is that I'm right and you are wrong, right? Apology accepted. Sometimes it feels like winning arguments in here is way too easy.
