Sky Sports | NFL | News | Colts put Sorgi on IR

With a bum shoulder,I find it extremely weird that a guy that almost never sees the field gets an injury that sends him gone for the season yet Manning who is playing every down in every game remains healthy.

If the Colts ever lose Peyton they will never win a game without him

Rookie Curtis Painter takes over as Backup QB - Pray #18 stays standing Colts fans :snob:

This could either be a good thing or a bad thing for Patriots fans (in terms of 16-0), depending on how you look at it. On one hand, now that the Colts have no worthy backup, Indy might be forced to play Manning more, increasing their chances of 16-0 infinitely...HOWEVER, you could also say with no backup plan, the urge to keeping Manning healthy might be enough to rest him up the last couple of weeks, which would virtually guarantee they wont go undefeated...interesting little scenario...

One problem: I'd much rather have Painter as my QB than Sorgi.

No way. Sorgi is better than Painter across the board.
