I don't think he's broken; I do think over the last year he has been beaten up pretty good. Multiple concussions, toe injury and has taken some huge hits. A little like CEH; he is not the same player after the Saints game. Football is a brutal sport and people end up crippled from playing it. Add the extra responsibility of a family, the huge contract, the frustration of defenses taking away what he does best, the inability of the front office to give him more than two options for receivers, opposing offenses going for fourth down conversions at a huge rate because of the pressure he puts on them, etc.
What else does he need to accomplish? i wouldn't blame him if he just Andrew Luck'd it.
