To get Luck's full potential, Carolina must hire Harbaugh

Recommended Posts

Andrew Luck has the potential to be better than Brady within a year or two. As we saw in the orange bowl, not only was he wearing a pro style wrist band on his arm full of plays, but his center was carrying another long list of plays himself. This says to me that Luck orchestrate better than Manning. Yet, who's plays were he orchestrating? HARBAUGH'S!!!!!!!

If we hire Russ Grimm, he will want to run the ball as much as possible. Imagine it now, 10 secs left in the ball game and down by 4 points, we're on the opposing team's 40 yard line and it's 3rd and 20. Luck calls a timeout and goes over to discuss with Grimm what they should do.

Luck: Alright coach what's the call.

Grimm: Hmmmm, let's surprise them with a run straight up the gut!

Luck: Coach we're out of timeouts and need to get into the endzone.

Grimm: Trust me, they will be caught completely off guard.

Luck then begrudgingly puts back on his helmet and starts toward the huddle, but suddenly Grimm catches his arm.

Grimm: Wait! Let's mix it up a bit. Instead of handing the ball off to Williams, give it to Fiammetta. Ha, am I a genius or what!

Luck thinks to himself: (Why didn't I stay in school):sad:

Come on Richardson, wake up and smell the superbowl rings. Payton Manning worked with genius coaching to help develop his skills. If you don't give Luck someone that will challenge him, he will be like Albert Einstein making d's in elementary school. The same could be said vice versa if we did bring in Harbaugh, yet either keep Clausen as starter or got another QB. These two are meant for each other.

ESPN declared this to be the year of the QB. We currently have the worst starting QB in the NFL and subsequently, own the worst record in the NFL. A phenom of a QB is possibly coming out in the year of the QB, along with a phenom of a QB coach who is a head coach. This is too easy a decision to make. Get it done.

Your argument is flawed and invalid, as is your grammar and spelling.

I think Luck and Harbaugh need to go their separate ways. Both to the NFL, mind you, but Luck needs to become a man by himself, not stick around with his college coach. Harbaugh can go to Denver, Luck can come here.

It's either Harbaugh or Grimm.:cool:

Honestly I read the title and skipped virtually the entire post.

To believe that the only man capable of bringing out the full potential in Andrew Luck over the span of an entire NFL career is simply retarded.

Is it the best immediate scenario? yes. Is the theory put forth by this post correct? In no way, shape, or form.

I think the biggest advantage to getting both Harbaugh and Luck together is the learning curve.

Harbaugh brings a very complicated pro style offense (over 315 plays in the game plan). Luck knows this systems backwards and forwards. The transition to an NFL QB for Luck would be greatly enhanced by walking in already knowing the offense.

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
