What are the chances of Luck pulling an Elway?

I've looked at alot of other message boards, and we all know how they dream for Luck to say he doesn't want to play for the Panthers. With all the media bad-mouthing Richardson and saying he's cheap, what are the chances Luck pulls a diva move?

If he's 50/50 on going back to Stanford, or coming to the NFL, you don't pull that kind of move. He knows he's going to Carolina if he leaves Stanford, so if he makes the NFL decision, I think that says he wants to be in Carolina.

Also like other people said, he doesn't seem like a diva type of kid.

No chance.

I could see Elway possibly trying to convince him to do it if Denver were to land Harbaugh (which doesn't look likely) but even then Luck is a good kid with a good head on his shoulders and I don't think he'd go for it.

He'd be walking into a good situation here with a team that is right on the cusp of being a contender, and I just don't envision him pulling a stunt like that, no matter how much some of the talking heads down at ESPN wish he would so he can go to "a real team"

I don't see why he wouldn't want to come to Carolina. At Stanford he played in a run first pass second offensive philosophy. Yes our run game struggled this past year, but I think that had a lot to do with a decimated O-line, no D-Will, and mainly Jimmy Clausen. Clausen couldn't keep any defense honest so teams just stacked 8 men in the box repeatedly.

With a healthy run game, Luck's sexy play action passing will work to perfection.

    • I hate to burst anyones bubble but this guy played 188 total defensive snaps in three years but 802 special teams snaps. If we do kick the tires, it's probably gonna be for that latter part.
    • I do believe that Evero gets canned before the end of the season and Capers takes over the D. I think the stage is set for Evero to fall on the sword for a 4-7 win season.  Not saying it would be a set up but I do think if that transpires, the seat under DC might start getting pretty warm, rightly or wrongly. That's my read on Tepper. I am not at all excited nor am I dreading anything. I just have extremely low expectations so I am just waiting to see what this revision of the roster looks like.  I FEEL like we are better on paper than last season's team but I wouldn't be remotely shocked if we were as bad or worse. Again, I do think this is the 2nd worst roster in franchise history overall. What will really make me happy is for some of the big questions to finally be answered(Bryce, Ikey, Horn, etc). I would like to see a real expansion of our core player pool(basically just D. Brown currently). I want to see a couple of hits in free agency and a couple in the draft. If we accomplish those things, I have faith that we are at least moving in the right direction after many, many years doing the opposite.  
    • Considering our depth. Certainly kick the tires.
