    I read/heard that somewhere (PFT Live with Florio ?)....gotta check.

    Yeah, 11 year old stadium seems kinda weird to need a new one. But maybe they want more capacity and/or more suites.

    He's very well-loved by Indy fans, much like Peyton.

    If the Colts went after the $$$, there'd be a backlash.

    The Lions were the Roman version of the Pats. They were always at the top of pre-season power rankings.

    Was absolutely brutalized early in his career. Lots of rehab, trying to drag that franchise across the finish line year after year with very little help. Only now are they giving him legitimate support.

    I think he'll be back, but he just needs to take a mental health break for a season

    I kinda hope he comes abck but only if he really wants to. maybe a year or 2 off to heal and enjjoy life may have him missing the game and returning. hell we seen kalil unretire this offseason. as did witten after a eyar or 2 off. so dyd lynch a few years back. bell took a year off for a contract dispute. sometimes a little time away makes players feel better, heal up, and mentally want to return

    Now that the NFL's biggest goober is retired he can use all that extra time to brush the cheese off his teeth. Hell, maybe even get a complete makeover. He looks like a Mennonite posing as a slob. Jesus H clean yourself up.

    You do realize Sam Darnold is the NY Jets QB?

    Haha, even Luck's voice sounds like a Neanderthal.

    Doesn't solve the problem because QB's will just want 30% of that as their cut and you still have the QB contract gumming up the works.

    When was the last time paying the lesser QB worked? Maybe 2000 Ravens?
