Andrew Suck

Becoming a theme here, yet another tough day for the boy wonder, who is extremely luck(y) to not have 4 losses in a row after being lambasted yet again from the get-go. Arizona is actually the same place Cam was immediately and emphatically called a bust not even two months ago after his receivers were dropping TDs, first downs, and big gains. Is Captain America himself no better than 40-11 to the Arizona Cardinals?

that's just because a few of you are such aggressive haters

Please define "hate?"

 

Andrew Luck isn't worth anyone going to the level of "hate." There really isn't anything about him to hate. Some of us simply call things as they seem them. Anyone with eyes and a brain can see those in the media go out of their way to never say a negative word about his games. Everyone knows you never put down a person you want others to see in a certain light. It defeats the agenda. :)

I think Luck is a decent QB, but what exactly is his upside for the future?  I remember the big thing on him was he was supposed to be the most pro-ready QB since Jesus walked the Earth, which would make him a safe pick (which is never a certainty at QB), and thus valuable.

 

So... if he was so polished about the nuances of the game, where is the upside?  It's not like his physical attributes are suddenly going to get better.  Not only that but now he's running the same exact offense he ran all those years in college, so he should be extremely familiar and comfortable in the system.

 

If that's the case, he's far closer to a finished product than someone like Cam--who is the complete opposite.  Cam has ridiculous potential because he's still raw and polishing his game up, yet still playing a high level to go along with his absurd physical gifts and athleticism.

 

 

I never bought into the hype about him... and I'm really not seeing it now.  Is he going to be good?  Sure.  Is he going to be great?  Meh...

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
