Andrew Luck

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.

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.

The saddest part of this whole thing is that his own (alleged) fans boo'd him. That's a HUGE black eye for the Colts.

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

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 welcome the only Defensive Coordinator to earn a Superbowl Ring in New Orleans while understanding Revenge of the Nerds is a sequel. "Come get some!" -

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...

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...

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.

That was a strip down to the studs to acquire draft capital and rebuild. They were intentionally trying to not win games. The players weren't the front office was.

Given that I believe that our OL is now our #1 weakness on the Browns....let's hope our QB doesn't suffer a similar fated.

The Colts fan base is full of weird folks..With a owner that should not run a Wendy's..
Thanks to most Colts fans, And I will be just fine...

Indy never should have had a team. The Colts should still be in Baltimore.....that was all on the Irsay family.

BINGO, we have a winner!
The NFL is truly a brutal business that's why they are going overboard to try to protect the quarterbacks and wide receivers. For every player who makes 10, 15 or even 20 years there are many who get hurt in training camp or year 1 or 2 in the game.
Good luck Luck in your new career behind a microphone or maybe just fishing.
GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!
