Andrew Luck

[FirstTimer]

Jesus Christ, what a terrible thread.

Football is the only sport where you would see a thread like this. Nobody ever says, "OMG guys, did you see Bryce Harper go deep in that Grapefruit League game today!!?", or "Wow, John Wall lit up the Bucks for 18 in that exhibition action!".

Preseason, A FUCKING SCREEN PASS, nobody should care except for Colts fans, and even they shouldn't really give that much of a shit.

Luck displeased with performance, wants to improve next Sunday

Rookie quarterback Andrew Luck of the Indianapolis Colts brought his revised to-do list to work Tuesday. Make better protection calls. Complete more passes. Get ready for his first road test as a pro, Sunday in Pittsburgh.

"I think you just try and get better," said Luck, "Obviously, it was nice to go out and play a game and do some good things, do some bad things."

Bad things? Good luck finding those in Sunday's 38-3 exhibition victory over St. Louis. All Luck did in his first NFL appearance was go 10 of 16 for 188 yards with two touchdowns and a 142.6 quarterback rating, leading the Colts to the franchise's most lopsided exhibition victory since a 35-0 shellacking of Washington in 1966. Two of Luck's incompletions were throwaways. Three were drops. Analysts and observers have praised the man who had been called the most NFL-ready quarterback since Peyton Manning entered the league in 1998. Ex-Stanford standout Luck lived up to the billing Sunday. He was poised in the pocket, unflappable under pressure and mobile. After watching video, Luck said, "I think I could have avoided getting hit a couple times, just seeing the pressure and throwing a lot, or changing the protection. So that's something hopefully we will get better at."

Aug 9th can't come soon enough. I'm sorry Houston, but we're taking the division back this year.

Isn't your starting safety Tom Zbikowski? And August 9th is over and done with.

Foster and Tate are going to run through your defense like a hot knife through butter.

I'm not jealous. I'm just at how delusional you are.

The more interesting angle is the playcalling.
Colts Offensive staff has had to do less work than any in the league for over a decade. Transitioning to a guy who still has alot to learn and calling the appropriate plays for his readiness is going to be an interesting task.
Andrew Luck doing well is good for this league. When youre most interesting story lines year in year out are is this Favres last year ? Does Tebows play mean Jesus is real ? Youre desperate for marquee stars.

He threw 2 picks tonight, but he shook those off like a boss and ended with 3 drives resulting in 17 points

Eh.. this would be more of a story if Dungy/Caldwell et al. were still coaching in Indy. It's an entirely new coaching staff with Fagano in charge..

I think you're looking for August 28th.. that's when Madden 13 comes out and that's the only place the Colts can win the division

Rotoworld says Andrew Luck is already a top 15 NFL QB.

Is this true of false?

Andrew Luck looks great to me. I really enjoyed watching him play the Steelers.

I'd agree with that. That's both a testament to Luck's skill and a sign of how devoid the NFL is from talented quarterbacks.

I think when 2012 ends, you can also argue that Luck is the best QB in that division.
