3. What is the plan with Luck? Do you predict he’ll come back at some point this year?

"Team owner Jim Irsay recently said he expected Luck back by Week 15 (next Sunday) and Week 16 at the latest. We have no indication as to how healed his kidney is, but he is throwing and doing conditioning at practice this week. It will first be an issue of being fully healed and then one of getting back into routine. Luck should be back before the end of the season, but if he’s delayed and the Colts miss the playoffs, I would bet he doesn’t return for a meaningless game or two."

My take:

While the Jaguars have shown improvement this year, mostly on offense, it’s still hard not to be disappointed with how the season has played out. Andrew Luck has missed the majority of games, including both against the Jaguars, and the squad from Jacksonville still couldn’t put together a legitimate run for the division title. The coaching staff is going to be under some scrutiny this offseason..
