Have you all seen how jacked he looks this year compared to years past? Goodness. He has certainly attacked his rehab and offseason workouts with, uh, zeal greater than those levels of zeal with which our species has heretofore been capable.
In any event, I understand that many Colts fans are hesitant to believe he's really back and will be ready to go after last year's is-this-the-week-when-Luck-starts-practicing-again saga, but I'll take Andrew at his word.
Many pundits have ranked the Colts as one of the worst teams in the league, but those have to be based on the presumption that Luck will be out. It'll take a few more years to rebuild that roster, but Ballard has done a terrific job the last couple of years. (I didn't totally love this year's draft at first, but I've come around on it.) If Luck is healthy and stays healthy all year, I think that's a playoff team. Even an injured Luck on a bad roster was worth 8-8. He has worked wonders on that club, and he finally has a GM and a coaching staff that deserve him.
If he stays healthy, the Colts make the playoffs, he's the Comeback Player of the Year, and he's getting MVP talk.
