I don't see how they're mutually exclusive.

Yeah I agree! You can focus on your endorsements and commercials, along with focusing on your football career if you want. A player doesn't have to be focused on one, and selfish if he does the other. You just have to be balanced in your pursuit of both if you decide to do so. Some people are fine just playing football and that's okay!

AH HAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

*GASP*

Are you KIDDING me?!

Peyton was, for a solid DECADE, the biggest commercial prostitute in NFL history.

Irony, thy name is HungarianColtsFan.

Seriously, did we draft a QB or a TV celebrity?

In my opinion the main thing how he performs on the field.

Peyton handled these thing in an other way, but Luck seems to be less interested in commercials or media-appearance...

People also need to keep in mind that 99% of any commercial shot is done during the off-season. I guess the Hurricane Katrina ads that Favre & the Manning brothers shot had to come during the season but rarely will they be filming during the season even on their off days or bye weeks.

A player doing an ad isn't keeping him away from working on his game. A player is going to put in the same amount of work whether they have a commercial shooting scheduled or not.

I don't care if he doesn't do commercials....some of you forget Peyton wasn't doing commercials in his rookie year.

I will make this point...Luck sounds nearly identical to actor Joel David Moore (the tall geeky guy from Avatar, Grandma's Boy, and other films). It's almost scary when I hear him talk without seeing him, like on the radio, they sound like they could be twins; until you see them.

I never noticed that, but yes! They don't look totally different, either. If I found out they were brothers or cousins, it wouldn't surprise me.

Could you imagine this guy doing that same commercial that Peyton does

about the Buick Verano or whatever you call that car?

Actually I can imagine it. Maybe not the same commercials, but after some success, I could see him doing some commercials. At first, I couldn't imagine "oh shucks" peyton manning doing many national spots. But as his legacy grew, so did his opportunities. Whether or not Andrew chooses to do them is his decision, but I could definitely see it. At least he has a smile a mile wide.

Andrew Luck is goofy he laughs at the littlest things in his interviews. but i dont care what your personality is you can act like Dennis Green all day everyday. as long as your putting up solid numbers and solid play every sunday. He is not boring to watch on Sunday I can tell you that

Andrew is in a tough spot PR-wise and he's handled it so well than nobody notices...

'

He's still the guy 'replacing Peyton Manning' and if that was me, I woildmt be coming in tryiong to be a big media star until I accomplished something..

RG3 isnt replacing anybody (no offense...Rex Grossman)

I think Luck will do a lot of commericals and ads.....but after he's played a season and established that suggests he's a quality successor to Manning

He seems like a normal guy, not a celebrity-type. I'm sure he is worrying more about his production on the field rather than how many commercials he has. He knows his responsibility is football, nothing else. Peyton didn't have commercials his rookie year either if you really want to keep comparing him.

To be honest I agree that he is kinda boring. He comes off as nervous and figgity during interviews as well. It's alright though. I don't really have to watch his interviews or commercials for that matter if I don't want to. So long as he's a cool dude while executing on the field...that's all that matters.

I think that Lucks personality is fine, he is just what many may call nerdy. Some might even call him a L7.

But if you want somebody who has zero personalit, look at Blake Griffen, he has literally zero personality...and his commercials are still hilarious.

Peyton isn't a magnetic person...he like a character on king of the hill, nothing that luck can't match

Sorry but Blake Griffin commercials are not funny. I think Luck could probably pull funnier commercials than that.

      If Eberflus was fired by Chicago would you want him back

      By Moosejawcolt · Posted

      I am not a big believer in hiring the so called offensive mind. I believe that is the role of a competent qb coach and offensive coordinator. We are playing a coach in Tomlin who is maybe the best coach in the league and he was a defensive coach. Williams is not struggling because of coaching. They have no run game and he is constantly getting pressured and that is on the GM. They didn't invest in the Oline. They built their receiver group in the draft and through free agency.  A solid Oline would have taken pressure off of Williams. The Colts are actually built well to insulate a rookie qb and give him time to grown.  If you look deep into Fields stats, he is still a bad qb. They are just not putting a lot on his plate, running the ball down teams throats and playing strong D.

      AFC defensive player of the week?

      By Jason_ · Posted

      Apparently it is that hard to grasp. They're the #1 ranked  OL through 3 weeks. Not over the entire season. Not over the course of several seasons. They're #1 right now. They're giving a better performance than the other 31 OL. That does not automatically mean they're playing at an elite level. What if no OL is playing at an elite level?   Imagine you're in school in a class of 30. The class is given a test. You get the highest score with a B-. All that means is you had the highest grade but no one scored a perfect, or elite, grade.    Can you grasp it now or do I need to get out the crayons?

      Is Shane Calling Plays to Win Games or to Groom AR?

      By Moosejawcolt · Posted

      I think teams are going to give up the run and force offence to march down the field on a 10 play drive and score. They are going to take away the big play and make Richardson throw intermediate and short passes. The defense believes that he will throw up a pick and/or the offense will stall.  Although,  I dislike the cover 2 defense, it is perfect against a guy like Richardson. The Colts have not shown that they can put long drives together. It is early and it is up to Richardson to make teams attack more. If they continue to run with success and Richardson makes those easy plays.  Then it is a different ball game and it opens up everything. Quite simple actually, lol.  If Taylor is pounding the rock against 4 man fronts because Richardson has improved his accuracy.  Then the D will have to pick their poison. Do you play up to stop the run, short and intermediate passes? Or do they play back to stop the big play? Richardson's evolution, if it happens, will stress the defense probably like no other qb because of his skill set.
