What grudge? What way am I being to you?

 

Yes, sometimes a 2-14 team is as bad as a 1-15 team.

What grudge? Lol ok dude. I didn't know you were 2-14 though. If you get there then we can talk. Problem is you guys would have to completely be horrendous at both ends of the ball for the next 9 games to be in the convo. The 2-14 team a few years ago? They were up there. This team? You still have a semi competent QB which those two teams did not have. You still have ok receivers and running back. Your whole defense and offensive line is pretty terrible. To me as an unbiased fan it isn't even close. You guys aren't even in the top 3 worse teams this year. That '91 team was an all time bad team.

I don't have a grudge toward you at all. No reason to. If you feel one, it's only on your side.

As for final record, we'll see I guess. I don't see any more wins

Fair enough man. Will check in on this topic after the last half of the season is played.

Early game on right now, Vikings vs Browns. Apparently Case Keenum has only been sacked 4 times this year. Man, can you imagine?

Schefter reported the Bengals had approved the deal five minutes before the 4 p.m. ET deadline but the Browns didn't agree in time. ESPN Radio's Tony Grossi reported the Browns were celebrating the trade and forgot to call in the deal before the deadline, according to college Aaron Goldhammer.

Wow a high second and third? They got lucky.

The Browns will Browns.  Shining example of pathetic front office management, sad thing is it seems like the company I work for got management lessons from the Browns.

Article out today from  Zak Keefer -  Indpls. Star:  2 Years Later, Andrew Luck's Shoulder Still Isn't Fixed

https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/nfl/colts/2017/10/31/2-years-later-andrew-lucks-shoulder-still-isnt-fixed/818114001/ 

In the article, Keefer states Luck has missed 18 of the Colts' last 37 games and it's looking more and more likely he'll  not see any action at all this season.  Regardless if it's the Colts or any other NFL team, at what point do you say we can't hang our hat on this guy any longer?   Is he simply too fragile for the NFL?  Is he an incredibly slow healer?   If you're a GM facing this situation, what do  you do?

They were celebrating getting McCarron for a second and a third round pick? The guy hasn't thrown a pass in meaningful minutes in the last two years. What the heck is wrong with that organization. Dalton is at best an average QB in the NFL, and the Browns were celebrating getting his back up. Man, nobody in that organization has an eye for talent.

Interesting case. I see him being like a Carson Palmer and being better once he gets out of Indy. Depending on medical evals I guarantee the Browns would give the #1 overall for him. It would take more, but maybe a fresh start is what both need.

Colts placing Luck on IR.   Show of hands - how many didn't see this coming?

Ballard: Decided recently to see other docs and consensus was continued rehab, stay patient. Shoulder is subjective. Everybody rehabs a diff way.

Ballard: Not heard from one doctor that it's career ending. Doing everything we can to have a chance to have a long term career.

Ballard: Right now, strictly rehab, not another procedure.

Ballard: Luck very frustrated, very competitive, cares about teammates and organization.

Ballard: Think we'll see a better Andrew down the line given a full year to recover.

Ballard: We were all optimistic,and Irsay was very optimistic it would work out, but everybody's body is different.

Ballard: We'll take the approach that Luck is going to be there come training camp, or early.

Ballard: OK with the way we handled the QB situation. Didn't want to overpay for momentary satisfaction. Nobody out there who we thought could help us right away.

Ballard: Important for players to know they're not going to be rushed back before they're ready to play.

Ballard: Gonna take a little different approach to rehab this time around.

To play now would’ve been suicide by nfl. If I were Luck, I wouldn’t play until they got a front line to protect me. I just hope he’s not out forever.

I feel sorry for Jacoby. He’s in my prayers.

Meh, not really surprised. Guess the question is do we go offensive lineman or EDGE rusher with our top 3/5 pick

Pass rush for me. And I can't believe I'm saying this so soon, but we need receivers too.
