Wenn man jetzt halt noch eine O-Line hätt.

Bills -> :huh?deppat?:

dafür Cotchery wohl zu den Steelers, der kann noch was, vielleicht zeigt er´s ja bei den Steelers, hoffe er wird nicht so ein Flopp wie Coles bei den Bengales....

[MILANISTA]

Mankins war ganz wichtig!

Aber auch der Rest der Offseason ist bis dato grandios gewesen.

Chad wird sich sicher gut einfügen, wirklich gespannt bin ich auf AH und die neuen Pass-Rusher. Wenn die aufgeigen dann wirds ne grandiose Saison.

Also wenn Manning nicht fit wird und die Colts einige Spiele mit den Backups spielen müssen... Da kann man dann gleich Favre aus der Pense holen...

.Here we go: Colts ower Irsay tweets he's in Favre's hometownAssociated Press

HATTIESBURG, Miss. -- Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay posted on his Twitter account that he was in Brett Favre's hometown, but the quarterback's agent says he has not heard of any interest from the Colts.

The 41-year-old Favre retired in the offseason after a 20-year career and lives in Hattiesburg. Irsay sent a tweet on Sunday, saying "Brad, I'm in Hattiesburg ... is it right or left at the Firechief?"

Favre's longtime agent Bus Cook said he hadn't spoken with the quarterback in a few days, but the "last time I saw him he was on his tractor mowing the back forty."

Through a spokesman, Colts general manager Chris Polian declined comment on Irsay's tweet.

Though Favre has repeatedly said he's retired during the offseason, any Colts' interest would make some sense. Peyton Manning had neck surgery in May and hasn't played in the preseason, casting doubt on his 227 consecutive games streak.

That's a scary proposition for the Colts, who have little experience behind him.

"I certainly want to be out there, and it's hard to keep track of the hours I've spent in rehab," Manning said on Saturday. "I was short-changed a little bit by the lockout and I'm going to need every bit of the next two weeks, and then I can give you more of an update with where I am."

Curtis Painter has started both preseason games, going 8-of-16 passing for 95 yards with no touchdowns and one interception. In Friday night's 16-3 loss to the Washington Redskins, Painter managed only one first down and couldn't get the offense past its 29-yard line despite playing the entire first half.

Painter hasn't played in a regular season game since 2009.

The only other quarterbacks on the roster are Dan Orlovsky, who has played in 13 games in six NFL seasons, and undrafted rookie Mike Hartline.

On Saturday, Irsay acknowledged on his Twitter feed that the Colts might not have their four-time MVP quarterback at the start of the season. Manning signed a five-year, $90 million contract in July after the 4½-month lockout ended.

Favre is a three-time MVP and has thrown for more than 71,000 yards and 500 touchdowns, winning a Super Bowl with the Green Bay Packers along the way. But the famous gunslinger began to show some serious wear in 2010 with the Vikings, throwing for 2,509 yards, 11 touchdowns and 19 interceptions in an injury plagued season.

He also was hounded with allegations that he sent lewd photos and messages to a game-day hostess when both worked for the Jets in 2008, and was fined $50,000 by the NFL for failing to cooperate with the investigation.

But with Favre, anything seems possible. He retired with the Packers in 2008 and New York Jets in 2009 before deciding on a return. Favre has kept a low profile during the offseason, saying at a football camp at the University of Southern Mississippi that he wasn't sure of his future plans, though he insisted he was done playing football.

Favre bei den Colts, teurer Spaß für n paar Spiele....

[wienerfußballfan]

Geh bitte... .nein einem jungen die Chance geben brauchen wir nicht.... wir holen einen 41 Jährigen zurück der am Feld wohl nun wirklich krepieren wird und zu dem die jungen WR Daddy sagen könnten.... WIESO? Was hat der Sport nur getan um so eine Show von Favre zu verdienen?

[MILANISTA]

Nix für ungut, aber Painter ist dermaßen mies, da muss einfach was besseres her, sollte Peyton wirklich fehlen.

Ob Favre die Lösung ist, is ne andere Frage...

[wienerfußballfan]

Ja gut dann gibt es aber andere QBs die sie aufbauen könnten... z.B Tebow.... oder man holt sich einen Rookie....

Houston Texans running back Arian Foster on Wednesday posted a picture of an MRI of his hamstring on Twitter, prompting questions about the severity of his injury and his openness about it.

"This is an MRI of my hamstring, The white stuff surrounding the muscle is known in the medical world as anti-awesomeness," he wrote, providing a link to a picture of the MRI image.

Dr. Michael Kaplan, ESPN's sports medicine expert, provided his own analysis of Foster's injury Wednesday and said that it is significant, based on the image the running back posted.

"The MRI scan tweeted by Foster demonstrates considerable muscle damage with bleeding and swelling," Kaplan said. "Treatment is conservative. Rest, physical therapy with stretching and ultrasound, and anti-inflammatory medicine will be employed. Foster will use a gradual strengthening program when he's ready. A return to the field would not be expected before three to four weeks. Premature exertion risks re-tear and longer convalescence."
