When the Colts were losing to the Patriots by a score of 21-3 late in the 1st half of the 2006 AFC championship game, one of my older brothers emailed me to say that he was hoping that this would be the year for my beloved Colts, but it apparently was not.

The Packers have a big edge in time off possessions and plays run on offense ...... I'm hoping that that becomes a factor as this 4th quarter progresses.

People are going nuts for Stafford on twitter. Great, do we trade in one guy who can’t get to the big game for a guy who can’t even win a playoff game.

Also as I watch the Bills. I can’t help but wonder if the rumors that luck tried to retire in January are true. That would mean we went into the draft knowing that and we drafted Nelson instead of Josh Allen.

If that is true, then the colts deserve what they get.

Nelson is more valuable than Josh Allen, I’d still take Nelson over him today

January of 2019, after the playoff loss in KC, and a full 9 months after the Colts drafted Nelson, is when Luck was contemplating retirement according to the rumor. There were no QBs not named Kyler Murray worth taking in the 2019 NFL draft.

Yup, that’s the timeline, I was off by a season. He had already played a season with Nelson.

I agree the Stafford hype seems to be a little out of control. Look, I'll be happy if we get Stafford like everyone else, but before we anoint ourselves SB champions I think he'll first need to prove is that he's an improvement over Rivers, because apart from his age the stats don't suggest a big difference:

Phillip Rivers

Matt Stafford

Luck's own statements directly contradict this rumor:
