IndyTrav Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Just got very interesting.You've got Luck. RG3. Trent Richardson. Doug Martin.All of them have a legit case to the award.What Martin did today was record breaking. So was Luck. RG3 started out like gangbusters. Richardson has been solid all season.What a rookie class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldunclemark Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I dont know....I think you have Luck and RG3......I cant see a scenario..barring a season-ending injury..where one of the new QBs doesnt get it.and with Andrew and Robert..its seems to swing back and forth...each week or two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTC Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I think it will come down between RG3, Luck, Morris, and Martin. All very deserving of the award. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Americolt Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I think it will come down to Luck and Martin. Man that guys is a monster. FOUR rushing TDs and 251 yards??? You gotta be kidding me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoColts8818 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 If Luck gets the Colts to the playoffs and he keeps doing it with a shaky line, inconsistent run game, and little help from the defense he will be the rookie of the year no questions asked. I saw today no QB taken number one overall has ever gone 8-8 his rookie year or better. If Luck can do that it will be extremely hard to not give him the award and frankly if he's better than 8-8 this year it's highly unlikely the Colts wont be in the playoffs.

IndyTrav Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 Forgot about both Wilson and Tannehill. Both good players whose names should be mentioned as well. It's gonna be a wild race. Lets assume all the QBs finish within 1 or 2 games of each other. Then it's going to come to stats etc which will be even more interesting because they are all fairly close. Then you got Martin trying to be the league leader in rushing. And Richardson is probably going to finish in the double digit range of TDs as the lone option in a tough division.

No 1 Manning Fan Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 After the Dolphins game, I'd say Luck is the frontrunner, but there is still a lot of football to be played. Let's hope Luck brings that kind of game for the rest of the year and sews up that award. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDavis58 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Andrew Luck will be 100X better than RG3. Don't worry about what the media says. I went to the game last week & RG3 is 90% hype. Media bashed Cam all week & hyped RG3. Cam outplayed him & all they talked about was RG3 needing help.Luck will be great. RG3 will fade away.RG3 is a hype machine. Inaccurate, can't read the D, pads stats with checkdowns, & takes off running if his first option isn't open. He overthrew his rb on a checkdown 3 straight plays. He is all hype. I think the media is hyping him in hopes he will overshadow Cam. Because last year Cam made all the critics look like fools & they have a vendetta against him.I was disappointed when we didn't get Luck last year but Cam wasn't a bad consolation prize.Teams have figured out Washington's * checkdown offense. Luck will run away with OROY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGIII Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I think it will come down to Luck and Martin. Man that guys is a monster. FOUR rushing TDs and 251 yards??? You gotta be kidding me.Martin has had two consecutive phenomenal games... but if those two games prove to be outliers then you can expect both Richardson and Morris to finish with substantially better numbers. Morris is by far the most consistently productive of all of the backs but we haven't been able to get him the ball enough the last two weeks.not if he's playing like the past 2 weeksThe sad thing is that he played really well two weeks ago. The stats only tell the story of how bad his receivers were that day. This past Sunday was the first day where he looked human RG3 is a hype machine. Inaccurate, can't read the D, pads stats with checkdowns, & takes off running if his first option isn't open. He overthrew his rb on a checkdown 3 straight plays. He is all hype.

Because last year Cam made all the critics look like fools & they have a vendetta against him.I was disappointed when we didn't get Luck last year but Cam wasn't a bad consolation prize.Teams have figured out Washington's * checkdown offense. Luck will run away with OROY.Cam played a mediocre game against the worst pass defense in the NFL (if not the history of the NFL), so don't get too cozy. With a more capable QB you would have blown us out of the water with how we played... instead you allowed us to out-gain you on offense and your entire offense wound up consisting of about 4 plays, one of which the NFL admitted the referees BADLY screwed up.Griffin rushed for more yards and more yards per attempt than Cam and he threw for more yards at a higher completion percentage despite not being gifted a blown coverage that resulted in an 82 yard reception like Cam was. That's all with Griffin at his worst to date and Cam apparently looking good enough for you to be happy with his performance.Keep on telling yourself what you need to tell yourself, though.

RGIII Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Robert Griffin and Andrew Luck will both be good. Cam has talent but he has nowhere near the maturity and discipline that the other two have. I see Robert Griffin making the big game before Newton does.The offense that Chudzinski's running is also pretty primitive. That's not going to help the Panthers at all unless they ax him and Rivera sooner than later.Let's see Cam has what, 3 all-pro linemen? Steve Smith. Olsen. Stewart. Williams. Surrounded by talent. RG3 is in the worst situation in the league. Shanahan has failed miserably and Haslett is the worst D-cord in the league. Why hire an UFL retread?So not only are you a bad troll on a Colts board, you're also one of those guys. I like our offensive line better than the Panthers, who only have one holdover from their days as a dominant unit under John Fox. I also think Morris is considerably more capable and productive in our scheme than either Williams or Stewart are in theirs (see above re: Chud). The Panthers have an infinitely better pass rush than we do and Steve Smith. Those are the only parts of that team that I envy. The rest? Meh...Haslett sucks but the way our offense has been designed is pretty brilliant. We just need someone to step up at receiver. Right now Hank is the only guy who seems to be trending positively for us in that capacity but he's still a long way off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexpr Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Yes after a fast start of RG3 the ORYA is now more balanced, i will say that at this moment the top 3 is:LuckMartinRG3But the other rookies are pretty close too... still half of the season is coming so anyone could still win.

Flash7 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 It's a close race between Luck and RGIII. Morris and "Muscle Hampster" will be considered, but it appears to be a two-person race at the moment. I see them being neck and neck, but at the end, if one makes it to the playoffs while the other doesn't then the race is over. So far, it appears that Luck might be in the lead simply for this reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentHill Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 At this point, if Luck continues the way he has been playing. Taking a 2-14 team to 6-3 and possibly to the playoffs he is a lock for OROY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltsfanatic24 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 luck is being asked to do more then any rookie ever. the colts were the worst team in football last year and their 6-3 now and they beat some good teams packers,vikings,dolphins. reggie wayne wasn't this good last year but now since luck is the qb he's leading the team in rec yards. luck is one of the few qb's i see along with brady,rodgers,and brees that runs 5wr's sets on a consistent basis which is really hard to do. some would say that luck is more valuable to his team winning then any other qb in the nfl.
