Dear media, please stop telling me Andrew Luck is good

He might be someday. But right now he is a bottom half of the NFL QB. He has a limpdick for an arm, isn't all that accurate, holds the ball too long at times, and makes horrible decisions.

Some of that can be chalked up to being a rookie. Especially holding the ball and decision making are two things that every rookie goes through. But some of his short comings worries me long term. He is the third best rookie QB in the NFL and bottom half overall.

And before you tell me his record; he played perhaps the easiest schedule in the history of the NFL, the Colts caught some breaks, and he plays in the AFC. You can't hold those things against him, buy don't tell me his W/L record means he did something special. If the Colts are in the NFC I doubt they get to .500.

And just to get another ball rolling, if Cam Newton had the same type game the media would be all over him, for Luck they are falling over themselves to make excuses on his behalf.

Luck barely avoided a couple of pick 6's today, and he looked pretty much like he's looked all year. Very inconsistent.

I still expect him to be very good when all is said and done. But the media built this guy up to be something more than he is. He is a rookie. A rookie with lots of potential, but a rookie nonetheless.

Again, I think he'll be fine, but it will take a little time. He is only human, in spite of what we may have been told.

    • Its really going to suck having to blow another top pick on a qb (offensive player) but it has to be done
    • But everyone who watched the game generally felt the same way.  You did.   Did you go back and watch the all-22 for Trevor? Because if your intent to is to go back and figure out why he wasn't better than he was..... you can simply find ways the team didn't help him as much as they could of.....with ease.  Any QB.    It's now the 3 straight season openers of explaining away why Bryce wasn't as horrific as it seems.  My days of doing the Dwyane Jarrett defense are long over ( I used to be that dude).  I mean, I just don't get what folks are doing at this point with him.  I have rewatched.  I have rewatched others also rewatching with their takes on it all too.  It's Bryce.   Hyper fixating on a play that you rewatch a hundred times to build the case for the 3rd straight opener of why he doesn't stink as bad as he stunk? Yeah, it's just Bryce.  You really won't need to watch the all-22 in his next stinker to know it's Bryce....when you figure that out on Sunday already.     
    • Just seeing a ball go past the line of scrimmage would be a welcome sight. Watching that Bills vs Ravens game was rough for a Panthers fan. Lasers shooting down the field in every direction.
