    I mean, some Browns fans booed Derek Anderson while he was being carted off the field, so...

    Thought that was Tim Couch? Most Browns fans thought Brady Quinn was going to be a NFL Super Star and thought D.A. was standing in his way, Anderson was only a tad bit better than Quinn, We won 10 games thanks to Anderson then he fell flat on his face the very next year. Not lets never bring up his name again

    Definitely shitty and a terrible look for the fans...

    ... though I'm not so sure we wouldn't have some posters on here doing the same thing...

  • We have booed our own players, we have booed our entire team at times. 

  • Good for the Dolts. This isn’t about Luck but the way they got him. They intentionally tanked  a season to get him. Then they took care of him by giving him a lousy team and expecting him to carry them solo. Fuck em! They got what they deserve. Go Karma!

  • This sucks. It doesn't matter if you are a Colts fan or not, having elite players retiring way earlier than expected doesn't do any good to the NFL. 

    Luck was a quaterback who made up for the shitty rosters the Colts had for many years. Not only that, he also was the nicest guy and a Independence War veteran. Plus he has an Architecture degree 😉

    Thee Colts and the league will surely miss him. I wish him the best in his future endeavours.

    You could also say that Luck was a victim of those same shitty rosters. They took care of him like I take care of worn out sneakers. I don’t.

    I was all in on that until I found out from my kids I was Santa Claus.?

  • Players leaving well before they have to isn’t some unprecedented thing, but I have no doubt this type of thing will happen more and more.

    hell, JT albeit a bit older could have easily come back for several more years but chose against it. It won’t shock me at all to see guys play through their 2nd contract and call it quits around 30.

    If it makes you feel any better some fans booed him when he was running onto the field too.

  • So do they win a game this season?  Sit the vets, lose every game and pick number one. Sounds like the irsay way. Sneak and cheat

    According to the NFLPA, the average career is 3.3 years.  

    Looks like he’ll be a full time caveman for geico now... lol

    And yet ironically we had Hue who was able to lasso two number 1's in a row by only being completely incompetent. ?

    Exactly!  

    The FO there almost deserves this for the number of years they refused to protect the guy upfront.  That all took a cumulative toll on his body.  And you know what?  He never complained about it or lost composure in the pocket or while eluding pressure on the improvise out of the pocket.  In fact, sometimes you could hear him on audio/video telling someone that just clobbered him "GREAT HIT."  

    As much as we're Cleveland Browns fans, a lot of us are fans of the game that really appreciate a guy like this.  JJ Watt had a very respectful and understanding perspective on it today on ESPN when they aired comments from players and coaches around the league.  And then they showed fans in the crowd as he walked off the field the last time PROUD to show him they're taking off their #12 jersey in disgust.  

    Not for nothing, but social media really sucks sometimes especially when they leak something like this when he had a presser planned for a more appropriate time to air it.

    I was thinking the same exact thing when I just saw it on ESPN...

    In fact, I have a feeling we'd have the same short list of posters on here who would pull the same stunt, Woody.

    I didn’t. Honestly. I thought the coaching was terrible enough and the players weren’t developed enough to actually win games.

    Belichick wasn't winning more than 5 or 6 games total in 2016 and 2017 with those rosters. Practically every veteran on the roster was jettisoned. This was a tank job, pure and simple. Hue simply was a horrible pick to be a head coach of a young team that needed developed.

    In fact, when Belichick actually had a team like you speak of here in 91 - he went 6-10.  He didn't get us to a winning record and the playoffs until his 4th year here.  It doesn't matter how good he is at gridiron chess - he didn't beat people when he could only attack them exclusively with pawns...

  • The Colts fan base is full of weird folks..With a owner that should not run a Wendy's..  60A5.gif    3o7e.gif3ilv.gif  3lQp.gif    5Mi8.gif    5RBJ.gif         Thanks to most Colts fans, And I will be just fine...   FwQj.gif

    You don't need to be a super star to  be set for life anymore- if you're  careful  with  your  money. Just being a  hanger on  nets you a pension after a few years. And the top minimum after 9 years is $900k. Know  my niece's  cousin  was able to  do that playing  special teams and retired  a few years ago.
