I want Andrew Luck to fail.

Do you want Andrew Luck to fail?

I do. It's nothing personal against him, the team he goes to, or anything like that. The reason I want him to fail is because if he had decided to come out of school, the Panthers would have drafted him instead of Cam Newton. Newton has been everything a #1 overall pick should be. An instant starter, a game changer, and a guy you can build your franchise around. He has broken records held by a guy named Manning. He's turned around the fortune of a recently downtrodden franchise. Obviously he's still a rookie and things can always change, but Cam Newton looks like a home run pick.

So why does all that make me want Andrew Luck to fail? We have our guy, right? It's because we would have picked him over Cam Newton. What's to say Cam would have been a success if he went somewhere else? I would be happy knowing we drafted a guy who became a success over a guy who became a bust. Luck is so highly regarded that teams might be tanking the season just to get him. I just want to thumb my nose at the team that drafts him and say "We got Cam...and Luck failed."

But maybe that's just me being a selfish Panther fan. So be it.

I want you to fail to ever make a thread again

Cool story, gif approved now?

He'll probably be a smashing success. Even if he fails in the NFL, he'll be a mutli-millionaire with a degree from Stanford. He wins no matter what. He's an extremely fortunate human being if he turns out to be a successful QB or not.

If he makes it as a starter in the NFl then I want him to fail every time we play him. Otherwise I hope he has a great career. Why would it hurt us if he does great unless he is in our division or we play his team. Him doing well is no reflection on newton or the fact he stayed in school.

Honestly I am pleased he decided to stay in school. He did us a huge favor.

[Mr. Scot]

I have no desire to see Luck fail (except when he plays against us)

[thefuzz]

Not me. I want him to be a monster.

Let him and Cam bring in another group of great QB's.

Older: Brees, Manning, Brady

Prime: Rivers, Rodgers, Ben

New: Cam, Luck, Stafford

That's how I would like for it to play out.

[Panthro]

I would like to thank him.

If Andrew Luck pulls the draft day crap that Eli Manning pulled in 2004, I will be rooting for him to fail.

And the speculation is that he might:

But, frankly, I am beyond thankful that he did slap our organization in the face and pull out of the draft, because we've got the real once-in-a-generation quarterback now!
