Colts owner Jim Irsay wants a new franchise quarterback, regardless of what happens with the old franchise quarterback.

In an interview with ESPN’s Hannah Storm, Irsay was asked if the Colts could pass up a new franchise quarterback, and he answered, “I don’t see that.”

Irsay said he knows from personal experience with Peyton Manning that if you have a chance to draft a great quarterback first overall you take it. And he sounded like a man who already knows he’s drafting a quarterback and needs to decide only whether that quarterback will be Stanford’s Andrew Luck or Baylor’s Robert Griffin III.

Brandon Jacobs is ready to take some helmet-to-helmet hits.

Jacobs said today that he’s hoping the 49ers will hit him in the head when the Giants visit San Francisco, because he thinks it’s a lot harder to take him down by hitting him high than to take him down by hitting him low.

“I wish like hell they’d hit me in the head,” Jacobs told NFL.com. “A helmet-to-helmet hit. I want one of those. Because that means they’re staying high, you know. They’re not going to the ground and trying to make tackles at the shoe strings.”

Ed Reed and Joe Flacco put Reed’s critical words of the quarterback behind them on Thursday in the only way they knew how.

They staged a fake fight on the way out to practice, according to the Ravens’ website. Alrighty, then.

“I know Joe is a smart quarterback. He’s our quarterback, regardless of anything,” Reed said Thursday. “It’s about the Ravens and New England playing football. All that other stuff is to the side.”
