Official Orange Bowl / Andrew Luck Gameday Thread....

Recommended Posts

We were talking about this in gameday chat yesterday also. Seems lots of people are more excited to see the game tonight than we have been the last few Carolina games.

I personally am whether we end up with Harbaugh / Luck or not...I want to see how he does against a very good college secondary. The game has some intrigue that's been missing from the Panthers' games.

and you know what ? Tyrod has shown this year that he may be an nfl quarterback. He gets the stigma of the black VT running qb but he is lightyears ahead of what vick was as a passer at VT. I wouldnt mind drafting him on day 2 or 3 of the draft.

I think Luck will look good. I have also been looking forward to this game more so than the Panthers' as well. But I'll be even more exited when this game is over and we will soon know if he plans on staying in school, which I also think he will do.

VT has a stout defense, better than the Pac10 garbage Luck has been playing. Very interested to see how he holds up. If he can put a few TD's together with no turnovers, I will buy into the hype.

Typical East Coast bias. :rolleyes:

Thanks for putting this thread in the main forum, now let's see what the future holds. :D

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
