Hanging around on the PUP for 6 weeks wasnt going to fix him. When did you want to announce?

Opinions will always vary concerning his retirement and is understandable

I don't have facts to back this up, but I just feel that Luck indicated he wanted to quit at the end of last season and was handled by management. Don't decide yet, give it until summer camp and then decide. If you do that, we'll honor your contract. Like I said, I have no proof it went down like that, but it's possible.

Could very well have been the case?

Looking at the remaining 4 games, 7 and 9 is very possible, putting us in the middle of the draft 14 to 17. From there, a trade up to get the QB of your dreams is possible.

Doubt Bengals will trade and will take Burrow, who knows I just don't want Love...

I don't have any inside knowledge - but that's always been my theory. That is that they asked him to hold off on making a "final decision." After Lucks retirement I predicted a 6-10 season. Some koolaid drinkers were picking 10 or 12 wins. Gonna be a long offseason....

Agreed...who knows maybe Love works out but all I keep hearing is he has everything physical that Mahomes has. Sorry but that doesn't cut it for QB evaluation. Get ready Colts fans because if the great majority of you get what you wish for we could be finding out what many others have been experiencing for the last 20 years. Sucked to get Manning, Lucked into getting Luck and there will be no guarantees coming out this year or 2021 like when Manning/Luck came out.

I do know this...if playoffs are unlikely then Ballard/Reich have to do due diligence and see what Chad Kelly has to offer while getting a chance to play with the ones. He may just be Brissett but I doubt it. Certainly would not perform worse.

I see your point. Brissett is not the answer, neither is Hoyer. That means get a new guy in the draft. Play Kelly and if he plays well, you get a QB when you can in the draft. If he sucks, you trade up and get the best you can.

If the Bengals draft Burrows, could you get Dalton in a trade for a low draft choice?
