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.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
