It's "amazing" that other fans have a different opinion about Luck than you do. Alrighty then.

So I’m not allowed to have my opinion? I’m not looking at this from the point of winning Super Bowl’s, it’s about him as a person.

Its a game. He didn’t desert his post in the military. He didn’t steal money out of your pocket. He suffered an internal injury when he got buggy whipped down at the Denver game and could’ve lost his life. And that’s not why he quit. He’s been rehabbing his leg for two straight years and it just wasn’t responding.

His body failed him.

Was he supposed to die out there for you fans?

If Luck had retired with the same timing as AC or Rivers then there would be a lot less hard feelings, but with him retiring 1 week before the season starts it's hard to overlook thoughts that he screwed the Colts and quit on him teammates (and on a possible SB contending team).

Also, where'd you get the rehabbing his ankle for 2 years from? Luck wasn't listed on the injury report for the entire 2018 season.

I believe he wanted to retire right after the loss in KC, strongly believe he was coaxed into return when he didn’t wanna play anymore and after going thru the motion and all the bs charades he finally said he couldn’t do it

He gave everything he had I have no Ill will towards him. We could’ve had a QB by now I believe they were delaying the inevitable in hopes Luck came back. We had many options and we went with Rivers. We’ll get our QB hell it may be Brissett. I’d prefer one on a rookie contract

I could be wrong ( probably am ) but wasn't the leg injury due to some sort of skiing or snowboarding accident?

Yeah, I'm sure death figured in. Twenty nine is a long road for anyone.

The Indianapolis Colts announced Tuesday that Luck will miss 2-6 weeks with a lacerated kidney and a partial tear of an abdominal muscle. The team says the injuries will not require surgery and a full recovery is expected.

If Methodist hospital were further away, you dont know what could have happened.

He took a beating every Sunday while they couldnt fix the O line.
