NFL Week 16 Games


Rich Eisen and Company really talked up Jacoby's 1/2 performance, so how should new Colts GM Scott Ballard handle the 2018 QB position?

IMO they should trade Luck if there is a 33% chance at least that is his arm will never be the same, much like a starting pitcher who has lost his good fastball. Can Luck win on guile and brains, I'm doubtful.

The other questions are how many NFL teams will roll the dice for Luck and what price will he bring in trade?

Considering the Colts will have a high 2018 draft pick and you will now have 2 good chances of better luck at the QB position in the near future and at 1/3 the cost.

Then get some offensive lineman........

He did have the wind in his favor, though. What was the bonus terms?

2nd half rain and wind looks horrible.

Vinatieri with the 48yd hook for 3!

He had to go 3/3 to get back to 90%. The blocked FG earlier screwed him before the 60 try
 
Trading Luck would be the dumbest idea ever because you're not getting any value, you're getting 25 cents on the dollar and there's no proof Brissett can actually win games in the NFL.
 
This game looks winnable for the dolts but they will find a way to throw it away.
 
Vinatieri must be a heck of a pool player. That's a nice carom off the corner pocket. 16-13 now.
 
Vinatieri with the bounce off the upright and in from 38. Not bad in this weather.

Was a 90% conversion rate bonus.
 
Vinatieri missed from 60, but would have been good from 58.

Why would a coach ever have Adam V attempt a 60 yarder?

That is just stupid. He doesn't have the leg for it. He didn't have the leg for it even 10 years ago. He is money in cold weather and pressure but his one weakness has always been distance.

At this point, I think those are the only 3 who haven't been suspended yet...

So seems like Baltimore stinks now.
 
Hairston might be the worst corner I've ever seen play in the NFL.

Baltimore sucks and I'm not averse to them making the playoffs.

Agree with the point of not getting back full value but on the other hand they would be getting out from under his contract.
 
That was a PI but the refs are throwing flags so late influenced by the fans. Pretty much soccer refs.

When he's healthy he's one of the five best QBs in football. You'd have to be a lunatic to trade him.
 
That's ball game. Colts can't score and the Ravens have been able to chew clock all day

They'd also be massively downgrading their options for a new head coach, the owner is a crackhead, the GM is unproven you trade Luck now you're asking a head coach to put his career in Jacoby Brissetts hands, sounds risky.

They don't need to get out of the contract either they have over $80m of cap space for next year.

And this game is over.
 
That drive was aided by PIs. The dolts are just terrible.

Time will tell.

Luck in his 5 years had a 59% completion percentage, with 2 good years and 2 average and 2 basically injured.

So the new GM who has no ties to Luck might try to cut his losses if he gets at least a 1st round pick in return.

Especially if other QB needy teams get desperate in 2018.
