    U R Funnee. 🙂 Deserves a bump, with the "Official News" I can't believe everyone hasn't heard by now....

    ESPN

    Dr Hoorta says he's out for months, if not the entire season. Remains to be seen if the Browns caught a serious break.

  • One player does not make a team.

    ESPN this morning was discussing how long Manning would be out, and it appears that nobody really knows.

    True if you're the Patriots. False if you're the Colts. They not only lost their QB, but the real offensive coordinator of that team.

    I agree. No team in the NFL has been more reliant on the skills of their QB than have the Colts for a number of years. Take him off there and they are a completely different team I believe.

  • I would be very concerned about this injury being a threat to Peyton's long term health. It's one thing to rehab (and potentially re-injure) a knee or shoulder. The neck is altogether different with far more critical structures (nervous system) within it.

    Neck injuries certainly are career threatening. I'm not saying that I have any more information than you but it would seem to me that his career longevity is possibly in question.

    This also could set up the ouster of Jim Caldwell as HC if thier season implodes. Tom Moore was the guy I thought deserved the gig.

  • Is it me or does jim caldwell look like he should work at 7 11?

  • My cousin keeps thinking that the Browns are a lock to win next week and I keep telling him that they will still struggle to win. Indy still has a decent team and they are at home. The Browns will have to fight to win that one.

  • I'm not too sure. The Colts are getting destroyed by Houston in every manner possible. It's 34-0 with 54 secs left in the second half right now. I'm sitting here listening to the Browns/Bengals via streaming radio but having to watch the Texans/Colts. The Colts look H-O-R-R-I-B-L-E. When they show the Colts on the sideline they look like the season is over already.

    Well, of the 10 QBs who are the all time leaders in yards thrown, you have Vinny Testaverde, Drew Bledsoe, and Collins each of whom will probably not get any HOF consideration...and probably rightly so.

    Does anyone think they were among the best QBs of their era? Do they fit in with the likes of Favre, Marino, Elway, Montana, Moon, Tarkenton, and Fouts?

    I agree, just saying there is no talk on how good Collins is. Like their season is done. They are far from done. Manning is a HOF right now agreed, but the Colts are going to fair better than people think.
