Fist that trash franchise with a handfull of Jimmy Irsay’s Oxy.
“Colts coach Frank Reich said Andrew Luck (calf) won't take part in joint practices with the Browns this week.
The Colts will practice alongside the Browns (their next preseason opponent) on Wednesday and Thursday, but they'll be doing so without Luck, who continues to be hampered by a nagging calf injury. ESPN's Mike Wells notes that Luck has only gotten three practices under his belt all offseason. Luck has been working on the side with quarterback guru Tom House, though there's still no estimate on when we'll see him back on the gridiron. The Colts and Luck have both maintained that he'll be ready for Week 1, but we've seen this song and dance from Indy before. This is starting to look like 2017 all over again.”

Mariota will lose his job to tannehill by week 8. [Reply]

It's also possible that Jacksonville figures its shit out. You never know. Foles is a huge wild card. [Reply]

They are pretty sure that Conley and Westbrook are their Hill and Watkins, and they are counting on injured Marqise Lee and DJ Chark to be the 3rd receiver. [Reply]

If this is the beginning of the end for Luck, they're going to enter aimless QB purgatory for at least a handful of years.
Like I said before: If your team prepares for and plans for the departure of your old franchise QB, I don't really care if you go from one league-best guy to the other. The Packers with Favre -> Rodgers planned ahead and didn't just decide to conveniently tank in the right year. If you trade up or take the guy you're given in the draft, I also (largely) don't mind. And if you're legit a bad horrible team like Cleveland when they got Baker, that's also fine.
Indy can ****ing get fisted and rot in hell, though.
We’ve been over this. They didn’t tank to get Luck. They were legitimately bad.
Now, what difference it makes if they were bad intentionally or just from arrogance and incompetence I guess is up to you. [Reply]

Tennessee as too many "ifs" to be any good;
If Mariota play to his potential... If Henry can build off late season performance rushing the ball... If Corey Davis lives up to his draft position (#5 overall)... If TN can overcome Lewan being out for the first 4 games (busted to PEDs) of the season...
That's a lot of "ifs" around your starting QB, starting RB, starting WR, and starting LT.
Also, the GM and head coach are yet another branch on the "Patriot Way" tree and we all know how well those work out. [Reply]

Count me among those who believe Tannehill should be the starter there. He’s legitimately better.
