People who work week in and week out seem to forget why there is an off-season. Players have to mend their bodies. Every year, players have to decide whether or not it is worth it to continue or if they should retire. Most are too stubborn and have egos big enough that they try to hang on, but nobody picks them up.
Coaches also have to decide every year if they want to continue. Me being a coach, too, I ask myself from time to time if this is my last year, because it is tough on you. The strain it puts on the family and the mental fatigue from concern for the team. Also, as a school teacher, we have to ask ourselves if it is time to go. With the summer off, you have plenty of time to question your desire to return to the fray. I think this is where Luck was, and decided that he just could not do it physically or mentally any longer. It isn't about being a "pussy" or a "quitter", but about being able to go through it one more time. As to Irsay's "four inches" comment, that doesn't necessarily mean that Irsay thinks he is fragile mentally. It simply means that he has to get the drive to play and trust his body back. To expect players to sacrifice their golden years to entertain us today makes us the egotistical ones, not them.

Exactly.... there hasn’t been a player like Manning. He had true passion for the game and the want to win a championship for the Colts.

I believe most of us understand that but the timing is what sucks. Maybe he truly though he was going to give it a go? I don’t know. |

No, Luck is far more cerebral than P. Didn't forget.

You could argue on or off field. I would hear that.

No way is Luck more cerebral than Peyton, no way. |
