IF the Heavens are kind to us and we do get Luck...

you assume he won't start and sign a veteran quarterback that you can count on to win games for you. we'll have the cap space. my guess is we'll sign somebody at the level of john kitna - been around the league, character guy, has shown the ability to step in and win games.

there would be huddlers on suicide watch if luck started as a rookie and looked like clausen out there.

Would have said sit him last year but if he can play like Brafford I would start him. With that said I would pull him if he doesnt progress in 4 weeks. Nothing major just to give him more time to get comfortable. Whatever we do they better bring in a reptubal veteran QB.

You start him if you can protect him. You want him to learn as soon possible, but you don't want him to learn "random left defensive end is my daddy". Also if the heavens are being kind to us, we just get Manning as a free agent because he wants to sign with a quality franchise this offseason and we use the pick to draft alien-predator hybrid from the AVP movies. His upside is amazing.

If Ryan, Bradford, Sanchez, Big Ben and Manning could do it why, oh why not the great Andrew Luck?

Personally I think Harbaugh would be a slam dunk as a coach because of Luck and his offensive background.

I would want to keep the Meeks/Brian Baker combo though. Our defense now with a couple FA at DTs would be nasty especially with #95 & #76 coming off the edges.

Start Luck sign and trade for 2-3OL to protect him and give the rookie QB Double Trouble in the backfield and we may be back sooner than you may think.

    • You're gonna mess around and hurt someones feelings 
    • He’s set financially for life barring complete fiscal lunacy. He has $12.3 million guaranteed. Think about that. Twelve million three hundred thousand dollars, he’ll be 28 years old when his contract is up and he’s completely forgotten about if he never plays another down in the NFL if he so chooses. Say after taxes he ‘only’ brings home $6M (fire your accountant territory) and parks $4M in a run of the mill mutual fund… good God… What I’m getting at, IF homie ain’t feeling the NFL, he has 12,300,000 reasons to take the fewest NFL edition ass kickings as possible while waiting out his very wealthy non-football future.  Obviously completely talking out of my a$$ with this… but if you hated contact, didn’t want to live with a completely wrecked body for the rest of your life and you know you’re set financially… what path would you take, assuming you’re cool with being a quitter (not calling him a quitter, I’m just playing out a scenario)? Why do so many first rounders bust? Where was he before his one year wonder if he was such a stud?  Everybody likes the dude on a personal level. How could you not? …. but I like seeing a winning product even more. He doesn’t play like his head is in the game. The Why is where the speculation lies and helps to clarify if his issues are ‘fixable’ or not.
