Under 25 yrs old team

Who else would they pick based on his criteria?

 

Now, "under 25" translates this way: Any player who'll still meet the requirement in Week 1 of the 2014 campaign is eligible (i.e., if a current 24-year-old has a birthday coming this offseason, he's out of luck.)

The Luck obsession is getting played out.

 

 

By the media or this board? 

 

I really don't get the hatred for him here.  If you truly think Cam is the better QB then you should love the guy for staying in college another year and ending up elsewhere.

I don't have any problem with Luck, it's just that the general football fans and media criticize Cam to a ridiculous extent, all the while saying Luck will be the next Manning or Brady. I don't really care who's 'better' to be honest, as I am perfectly happy with Cam as our QB, and I wouldn't trade him for any other QB in the league, but it does piss me off that everyone thinks Luck is so much better than Cam. In reality, Cam's played better in his short career than Luck has in his, even with Luck having better weapons. Now after this season everyone is writing off Cam's very good play, because we have a top defense. Ridiculous.

They create any freaking list just to put Luck at the top. What a desperate joke. When Luck is 30 and still a bum they'll create another list call 'the best 30 y old bum' and put him at the top.

 

By the way, it would be nice to find us a young elite LT like Tyron Smith in the near future. Seems like he was drafted at 20 and is entering his 4th year already. Incredible.

Cam did get alot of love for his play too in his first season which was a surprised because before Cam no one talked about the panthers. 

 

Luck has done alot with a little. He had Wayne in his first year much like Cam had Smith. Both of them were still pro bowl players. 

Luck mainly played without Wayne in his second season and still did an amazing job with the emergence of Hilton. 

He has zero run game support and poor tight end support. The defense is terrible as well so he has to put up alot of points. 

Luck was my fantasy QB this year so I watched a ton of colts games. Cam's supporting cast is much better than Lucks.

Can with a legitimate line is scary. He has done so much with a less than steller one.

    • I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive lshort or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
    • Then please take a vacation from the team.
    • In addition to his weak arm he has to compensate in the pocket by throwing off his toes due to his height. Respectfully, its a handicap.
