    The colts aren't where they are now because of picking Luck. That was probably the only smart thing they have done in the last 7 years. They are where they are now because of the complete failure to put a competent team around him since picking him.

    And I'd bet a lot of money that had they kept Manning they might have had more immediate success than going with Luck, but they'd have fallen off a cliff after. And given how bad their o-line was, Manning might not have had the success or health he had in Denver.

    Oh, valid point. I thought you meant all starters, you should take the time to be more descriptive, don't be shy. Jaded

    Even though Mr. Luck absolutely eviscerated my fantasy team with his decision, he did not even consult me, I wish him luck and dont blame him one bit for stepping away.

    I cant believe that a dude like him cant even play a decade because of injuries (this is the reason he retired he was always hurt and he's looking at the long game) yet a mediocre putz like Tom Brady can play for 112 years.

This is our fourth offense in probably three or four years. Quarterbacks need to be developed. You don’t find one ready-made. We got to have a solid system in place for when we do go after whatever guy it may be, a young guy or a trade or whatnot.”

    I remember you wanting Reich, you're better at picking coaches than Elway.

    I wanted Frank also. And commented that mcdee had found yet another way to screw the broncos when he canceled on his commitment last second and Ballard had to scramble to find Frank.
