He's played in 4 NFL games so far, and left injured early in 3 of them, with 3 separate ailments. That has to be a record.

Figures. I leaned today he throws like a pussy.

I wish him the best. But he's had consistent injury issues all the way back to high school. That's a pattern. Is it bad luck or something more concrete? I have no idea.

Colts have zero reservation about running him. He got pounded into the hard fake turf. It'll happen again if they keep running him.

Truly amazing. Some quarterbacks play just about their whole career without missing a game, and this guy can’t play a single full game without getting destroyed.

They keep running him because they don't want him throwing.

I remember telling you that you were crazy to think this dude was going to be a first round draft pick. Boy was I wrong. I'd say my biggest mistakes in life usually revolve around completely underestimating someone else's bottomless capacity for stupidity. How anyone could watch this kid actually play the game of football and still draft him that high based on really nothing more than feats of strength is beyond me. I guess they figured the magic football fairy was going to appear with her magic wand and magic dust and turn a fragile and inaccurate dude into the next Mahomes.

NFL scouts, GM's, coaches and owners can't help themselves. We all knew this guy would light up the Combine like a pinball machine, but that it's completely meaningless. Those guys fall in love with the body instead of the mind. They think their coaches will be able to "fix" the mental shortcomings. They are almost always wrong. Rinse, repeat.

You can’t spell Glass-r without AR.
AR don’t care, he’s set for a nice life at momma’s new house and doing what he wants.

Did you bust a nut when you saw he was injured again? That AR voodoo doll you made is actually working .

If I gave AR an actual voodoo doll, he'd probably stab himself in the eye

Has the size and mass to be durable but apparently not the joints and tendons to take normal wear and tear.

Well, you knew better, that he should be lower than first round, but Colts took their chance. I imagine now they realize it's not going to work out well.

Isn't the R shoulder labrum injury the same one that ultimately killed Andrew Luck's career?

Who you can call? Mister Irrelevant 2022 or the 4th pick in 2023.

Hey I wish him no ill will. There was a time when I thought maybe he was just coasting so he wouldn't get a freak injury prior to the draft. Looks like he wasn't coasting.
