Neck Beard has been playing with multiple fractured ribs

Maybe he does have broken ribs but it stinks of a built in excuse to explain his bad play. His decision making has been awful this year. NFL and the media for some reason need to keep this guy relevant even when he's playing like poo. Those ribs.....yep, that's why he's been terrible, couldn't be anything else.

And had ankle surgery!  And an entirely new WR corps!  And a rookie UDFA from Montreal at LT!  And without 10% of his salary cap to save league PR face!

It sounds like the Colts just said: "Hey! Everybody thinks/says he's injured anyway, so we might as well come up with something to make him look good/have a built in excuse.

The Colts are dolts. Cause now, Luck can use this against him in his salary negotiation, instead of telling Luck, "you sucked last year", don't be asking for too much.

Has this been confirmed or are they trying to give him an escape option for playing so poorly since he's a media darling? 

yes, the media has been conspiring to make andrew luck look good so they decided to make up an injury. like indiana jones solving a riddle to beat the nazis, you were just too smart for them.

    • I think we have some revisionist around it here because of all the drama around Tepper's involvement. If you pull up any scouting report from the time you'll see the same take. WalterFootball's report sums up the media's thoughts on him well: "Young has everything the NFL is looking for in a quarterback except in terms of weight and height." He was the consensus top QB of his draft and the only real question mark they had about him was whether his body could hold up in the NFL. The infamous Steph Curry comparison the Panthers latched onto came from Albert Breer. The excuses I've heard for him are more anecdotal. Bryce Young's development is the only bullet point most NFL fans have on the Panthers right now. That and the coaching turnover. If you're not actually watching our games it's easy to believe this is just a dysfunctional organization that doesn't know how to unleash this talented Heisman winner.  I've seen media and fans alike run with that narrative way more than criticizing Young outright. Whenever we win there's flocks who use it as proof that the Panthers just need to be patient.  
    • So maybe 1-3 vs playoff teams, going by standings as of today. I guess that is an improvement.  We are just about improved enough to be in purgatory draft wise. It really isn’t so bad in the 1st unless you really want that top QB or maybe edge guy because there are usually plenty of good players at the top but it hurts you some as get deeper in the draft.
