My bad…Fans like that is what gives “TRUE” Steeler fans a bad rep…I’ll trash talk but will give props to a team(s) if we lose…I don’t cheer the Colts and I don’t cheer injuries…
I’m Just Saying…

Correctamundo

Where did Cassell come from? He was a 7th round choice from USC who hadn’t started for about 6 years because he got stuck behind 2 straight Heisman winners – Palmer and Leinhart.

BB trades (gives away?) Cassell at the end of the 2008 season, and finds an UNDRAFTED free-agent QB from Michigan State whose last name is Hoyer and whose name I can never remember, and lo and behold here we are 2 years later and the guy is ready to step in. And Ryan Mallett is the new guy on the sideline with a nifty Patriots ball-cap and the simple instructions – “Watch #12.”

If Brady gets hurt Hoyer is ready to step in.

“It’s the system!!!” you say.

Again – correctamundo

If Manning can’t play again the colts are toast – and they have no one to blame but themselves. They won as many games as they did because of the brilliance of Manning, leading to the old saying:

ORGANIZATIONS win championships.

Want more proof? There are 6 players left on the 53-man squad from the Patriots’ 2008 Super Bowl team – that is a turnover rate of 88.67924%, and in any (intelligent) conversation the Patriots are in the mix as one of the 5 or 6 teams who could take it all this season.

The Patriots got caught stealing defensive signals in the 1st half of the 1st game of the 2007 season. They were told to stop – they did. Following that it would be reasonable to expect the league to keep an extra sharp eye on them. Any complaints since then (except of course from the most ardent haters and conspiracy theorists who of course answer to no one but themselves)? None

Their record since then? 54-14. 79.4%

Super Bowl – P v. P

Take your pick

I am a Pat’s fan and I have enjoyed our battles with the colts over the years. Sometimes I enjoy them a little more, sometimes a little less.

You don’t owe us fans ANYTHING – you have given us more than enough highlights to drive us (happily or unhappily) nuts in the years to come.

You don’t owe the indianapolis colts ANYTHING – If they signed you to that contract w/o knowing that you might never play again – no one made them do it.

You DO owe your family a nice walk in the park. A WALK, mind you, not someone pushing you in a wheelchair because your neck is in a neckbrace and you can’t move.

cool. don’t care. both Ravens and Browns fans need to get over it. Maybe it’s just me. I was 5 when the Modell left Cleveland. But really. You guys have a team now and so does Baltimore. get over it and root your team on to victory

On an aside is don’t matter what season it is…… down here… we still hate the Packers

You hate the Packers? Why would anyone hate the packers when the team is so nice as to invite anyone to come visit the best venue in sports and see 13 trophys and the best hall of fame in any sport?

Hell, we’ll even get you a beer if you ask, even if you are a bears fan. We have pity for losers.

Go BROWNS!

Here’s one option that he might want to consider: return that $18,000,000 in annual salary that he knew he wasn’t going to earn this year when he signed the contract several weeks ago.

For somebody who is already worth over $75 million dollars, that would be the honorable thing to do…so don’t bet on that happening anytime soon.

i hate steeler’s fans. i can’t wait until they all fall off the bandwagon.

I’m a Steeler fan and wish him the best!!!
Funny how a raven fan comments on steeler fans when this is about Peyton????? Look I’m one of the “rare fans” that wanted him healthy and ready to play. I don’t wish illness or injury on any player when teams play,that way it’s no excuses…
Like SB45.. ‘Nuff Said.

In all seriousness though I hope that he is okay and that he heals quickly. Whether you hate or love the Colts. The NFL without Manning is kind of sad. Out of the Manning family, he at least is a nice guy (unlike Eli) and he is the only player in the NFL that makes his team worth noting. Not only is he a QB but when he steps up the the line he becomes a coach and a leader and save for the two bad seasons he has had. A bad season for Manning is still a good/great season for most QB’s.

Coming from a die-hard Falcons fan, I hope to see Payton Manning not only come back soon but return to form because if this really is more serious then they are letting on and could possibly be the end of his career…let’s just say I will be one of the many who will miss the Brady/Manning best QB arguments.

Truer words have never been spoken. I totally agree and also share the same parenting (someday) philosophies that you subscribe to which Peyton Manning embodies.
