“I am a HUGE Andrew Luck fan. Always have been. But this I cannot defend or justify,” Beuerlein wrote. “NO scenario where retirement is defensible. To do this to his teammates, organization, fans, and the NFL 2 weeks before the season is just not right. I love the guy but this will haunt him. Point is this is a massive decision he SAID he has pondered for 10 DAYS! Colts invested in him for 5-10 more YRS! Go on IR, get away for a few weeks and think about it. Get healthy for 2nd half of season and make a run! Colts are good! If Jacoby goes 4-4 they have a chance! His team needs him to make this run. I know rehab is tough. I had 19 surgeries as a player. 8 over 2 years. It sucks! But he owes it to his team. It is just a lower leg injury and it will heal! Just give it a chance. If it doesn’t walk away after this year.”

I don't care what people say to defend Mr. Luck. 

He's just Mr Asshole. 

As a franchise QB and leader, you don't leave your team 2 weeks before the season opener. 

Suck it up, be the man you're suppose to be. If he still feels that way at the end of the season, then retire. 

Classless, no  Integrity, POS.

Yeah, I guess he never should have played pro football to begin with. Then you'd have a point. 

  SSDD. Always the team first....right?????

 Maybe you should have played long enough to know what the person might be going through? Or are you just guessing and bashing as someone who never played football at any level. Because that much is fairly obvious. 

  Just to be clear, you think the team comes before any players health? Is that the prevailing opinion now. A team with fans that lose their minds every time a player leaves, for any reason, is now chastising another player for doing what HE feels is best for him and his family. 

As always. Team first....Logic last.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
