Jesus, could you just imagine had he been behind our O line? Hate it for him.

There's absolutely no reason to believe he would have had that same shoulder injury in carolina. 

football is a blood sport where poo happens

the colts problem was how they managed it, forcing him to play on it for two years and letting god knows what happen to it in the meantime. 

colts are a trash organization who lucked in to him

I read he did what Cam did, knew his shoulder was hurt but kept passing through the pain. Difference was he apparently hurt his in the beginning of the season, like game three and kept playing. Having surgery a week after an injury and 10 months after an injury are two completely different things. He changed his mechanics to lessen the pain which put more stress on different parts of his shoulder which only increased the damage. Hate it for the guy but I find this mentality of "I've got to play through the pain to show the other guys I'm with them" is stupid and in his case possible career ending.

Bullet dodged.

Panthers got lucky getting the far more durable Newton because the results would have been largely the same if Luck came to Carolina. The only difference between the Colts and Panthers is, the Panthers know how to build and play defense.

That really sucks. I have no problem with Luck and hold no grudge against him for staying in school for his senior year like some in this community. The guy has always been a class act.

Maybe the Colts can trade him a-la the Chargers with Brees in 2006 and draft Sam Darnold, who I think is the most overrated QB in CFB this year.

Yeah, he's not good to me.

Pretty much. If we can say the only decent weapon we have given Cam in Olsen, the Colts can say the only decent weapon they gave Luck is Hilton(to me that is exaggerated). Though they did attempt to draft a 1st round WR from Miami, cant think of his name in which he as already traded to Patriots while we drafted KB. And our o-line has significantly been better than theirs, if anyone can fathom that.

    • Would you just fuging quit trying to make us like him? That is his job, not yours.  Thank you. 
    • Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.
    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
