He also played the entire 1st half (minus 1 drive) which means he was playing against the Rams 2nd team defense in the PRESEASON.

The Colts looked like they were playing in a playoff game and the Rams could hardly give a poo. No surprise though, the Colts wanted to give their fans something to look forward to.

Who cares who is better?

Seriously, as long as Newton continues to improve and plays like I know he is capable of, I don't care if Luck is better than him or not. We'll still have a great quarterback on our hands.

From the highlights I saw, Luck seems to be as good as advertised. The ball just looks perfect coming out of his hand. I would be very optimistic if I were Indy.

As far as comparing him to Cam Cam Bam Bam? Holla at me when Luck breaks off a 50 yard TD run and outruns a NFL secondary.

      Legette still focusing on drops per David Newton

      Dude would come down with some fantastic snags, even in crunch time so the ability is there. I hope he is plugged in with a sports psychologist.  He could be a PROBLEM if/when he develops more confidence.

      Very glad to see he is aware and working on it. Now we just need to see the results this season. Hopefully, like he said, with TMac getting the bulk of the targets/attention, it opens up opportunities for him.

      "Talking about his rookie drops makes his trademark smile disappear. "'Those were the main ones, the bad ones,' Legette said in an interview with ESPN. 'It affected me in a way; how it made me feel. Just how we lost those games. It could have changed [the outcome].' Legette admitted the drops got into his head. "'It's always gonna be the next-play mentally,' he said. 'But it always will be in the back of my head, trying to focus on catching.''' https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46015325/nfl-carolina-panthers-xavier-legette-tetairoa-mcmillan If I were to give X advice, it would be to continue to work on the mechanics. Make sure you look the ball into your hands and secure it. Everything else will take care of itself. I don't know that thinking about catching balls is the way to go. That could end up as pressing, kind of like the yips for a kicker. Be steadfast about the mechanics and just catch. It becomes just a natural occurrence or consequence of consistently working on the mechanics.
