The A-11 offense is destroying high school and small college defenses. It may be the wave of the future.
It would really be something to see Vick and Newton paired in a backfield running it.
I don't think high school and small college defenses really compare to the NFL...
The wildcat, option, etc are fads in the NFL. They may work for a 6 games or so, until DCs figure out how to stop it. Same would happen with the A-11, it's not a long term solution to your offense.
Let's take a look at the past SuperBowl Champs going back to 2005...
GB- Rogers
NO- Brees
PITT- Big Ben
NYG- Eli
IND- Peyton
NE- Brady
You need star QBs to win SuperBowls these days. Big Ben is the weakest QB on that list and he was ranked the #5 overall QB by ESPNs John Clayton before the 2011 season.
Do you see Vick on that list? Rogers is the most mobile QB on the list and he rarely runs unless they are in the redzone.
We would be making a terrible mistake if we missed the opportunity to draft Andrew Luck with the #1 pick. He's the most "NFL ready" draft prospect this decade.

RG3. Everyone has been talking about Vick these last couple of years and right here is the younger. bigger, faster (track speed) version who can pass/run. Manning is the starter but you can mix plays in right away with RG3. Imagine Manning and RG3 in the backfield together? Is it going to Manning or RG3? If to Manning, could he pass to RG3? If to RG3, Is he gonna pass or is he gonna run? Colts take the south and go on to win the superbowl next year, Manning retires a colt, and RG3 will be ready to run this high powered O into the future. Problem solved. No charge.
Did you really just suggest a double QB package? hahaha

It's a no brainer....
You realized that it's a bad deal to build your team around one player, therefore you trade the pick.
It's a bad deal to build your team around possibly the most hyped prospect of the decade?
C'MON MAN
Peyton isn't healthy and will never be back to 100%, but for the sake of argument lets pretend he is...
You trade Luck for what? 3-4 years of more of Peyton and then????...Then we are terrible again, and have no QB.
Star QBs like Luck don't come around every single year in the draft.
Everyone is blinded by PM right now. Don't get me wrong, Peyton is my favorite player of all time, but his days of being the #1 QB in the league are over. Nobody knows for sure if he will ever be healthy again and we sure as heck wont know before the $28 million bonus deadline. Either PM restructures his contract (which he should considering we paid him $26 million to not step foot on the field last year) or he's gone, and even if he does restructure we will still take Luck #1.

You don't pass up a kid like Luck. Maybe if Peyton was in his early 30s I can see the reason to trade the pick, but he's 36...
I don't care if 18 is says he is 100% before the draft, you STILL take Luck.

nice try there sparky . . . your first link makes reference to a hit after the whistle where sometimes light knock downs are not allowed even they are totally harmless . . . if the person who drafted the article actually watch what happen on the play the author would see TB was trying to get out of the way and for the most part of the run back was standing still, and one point he makes his way toward the pile as the guys is being tackle and some one take a run at him and knockes him down . . .totally harmless and TB said as much the next day on his radio gig with a local radio show . . . but what some don't see is that you can't go around knocking people down . . . does anyone remember in 2008 in our game and Kyle Brady our TE pushes poor little whittle Robert Mathis who then fall down boomie whoomie ;) . . . totally and utterly harmless (and it was after Mathis took a shot at Moss), but "big strong" Mathis fell down like a ton of brickes and our 3rd and 1 at the 25ish became 3 &16 at the 41ish . . . but it was after the whistle and altho it was a total harmless push it cost us 15 yards, so it works both ways, for those who want to open their eyes ;)
As for you second link, people who actually want to remember history, the low hit prohibition, started with the Carlson Palmer hit in 2005 playoffs and was only reaffirmed after the nfl lost TB . . agains these authors have seletive memory . . .
as for keeping the QB healthy, the NFL needs that, the fans want scoring and it is the fans that pay the paychecks of the players, so the players get paid more money if the fans are kept happy and in the stands and buying stuff . . . so this yahoo players that like to get thier panties in a bunch and whin about calls should remember where their paychecks are coming from . . .
Cool story bro...
Sorry I stopped reading immediately after you called me "Sparky"

To sanitize the stench of Belichick.
So I see I can't use the real word...cool...
Beli-
cheat is what I'm looking for.

Why? Other teams have been winning all year at that place...why sanitize it now??? ;)

If Brady uses Manning's actual locker, he'll probably be thinking...
"Why is the helmet cubby so big? Dang, I could park my Audi in that thing."
Too bad he cut his beiber hair. That totally would've made up the difference.

And Marino played during an era where CBs, LBs, and safeties could mug WRs and TEs.
Now, partially thanks to the Colts, if you breathe on a WR, you get penalized.
Different times, different outcomes, and yet Marino STILL did what he did during a time that was much more difficult for a QB than these days.
Thanks to the Colts? I think Brady is the one who changes rules...

It happened in Houston, Texas.
What the heck does that have to do with Beantown?
There are plenty of Colt fans on Patriot boards, and vice versa. Get used to it.
Or you could just get off our board.

I don't see how standing there talking about pizza makes it seem like he's ready to come back.

the raiders use silver, black, and white
Nope, just black and silver.

yep, I'm not jumping on Rogers bandwagon until I see 8 seasons of 4000+ yards and 35+ TD's each season.
Rogers already has a Super Bowl and is clearly the best player in the league. You must not have watched any Packer games this year.
Who Should We Draft?

Yes, STAR. This most hyped QB since some dudes named Peyton Manning and John Elway, ever heard of them?
What if he's a bust? Well then we're >>>ed...There is no reason to believe he will be a bust though?
What if we pay Peyton $28 Million and he isn't able to play in 2012? Then we have no cap room to give Andrew any kind of supporting cast and we will surely have another terrible year.
Do you honestly believe PM will be able to show us he can play before the bonus deadline? HIGHLY doubtful and he's not going to restructure his contract so we can trade him, that would diminish the team he would go to. He's going to be cut and probably retire or possibly play in NY, Zona, DC, or somewhere else.
By the way I know I was suppose to "pretend" Peyton is 100% for the poll but I don't find that realistic.
