You people are wrong...Luck had his back to the defender when he hit him with his 350# Gut.

Luck would not stoop so low as to flop.

Just thinking the same thing. How would Luck known who it was. His back was towards the defender. Could have been a lineman for all he knew.

There is a clip where Luck is mic'd and he readily admitted to a ref that he was trying to get a call out of him. I don't remember what the circumstances were and I'll have to find it, but he's not above trying to get calls made in his favor.

Luck sold that flop in a way any soccer player would be proud, but as a defender you should never ever give him a chance. A oscar worthy performance.

 

It should be noted that soccer is Luck's second sport.  

 

Most soccer fans hate the flopping in soccer these days but it happens in the NBA too so it's sort of a part of many sports now.  Some teams are better at it then others.

 

But Luck did sell that really well, and you are right, it's really dumb to chest bump the guy from behind like that.

He just loves RG3 so much it hurts sometimes. Luck is a threat to RG3 being considered the best of that rookie class. Skip doesn't like that.

 

I am a little hazy on this since its been a couple of years, but as I recall right before the draft with Luck, RGIII, Wilson, etc., Bayless said he thought the best of all of the young QBs was not Luck or RGIII, but was in fact....Weeden. Since Weeden has flamed out already he has been beating the RGIII drum. The guy is a joke as an analyst, but then again ESPN in general is all about stirring the pot and rarely about meaningful insight.

Yeah just ignore the crazy picks like Weeden. He just does that so if he gets lucky he can brag about what genius he is.

In fact. You could just ignore him all together lol.

Manning bulldozed us in the fourth quarter...and we had absolutely done a terrific job of holding him off for the first half. As we watched this game I told my wife that it would be CRITICAL for the Colts to capitalize off the turnovers and score TD's....and that's what they did and THAT was the difference in the game...

 

But Manning was impressive just as he has been all year long, this game TUGGED my heartstrings during the tribute and right up until opening kickoff...but once it was kickoff it was COLTS GO COLTS!!!

???????? He was blindsided and fell down. He had no time to fake falling down off the dummies chest bump.

I'm not saying he faked the fall at all. I'm just saying I think he flailed a little on the way down. I'm only offering my opinion, not a fact. I could be dead wrong and I'm perfectly okay with that.

Luck was reaching up, probably to undo his chinstrap, when the jerk hit him.  Next thing he knows he's doing a face plant.  Not really surprising that his arms flailed.

 

And let's not forget that Vickerson is the same upstanding player that may have cost another Colt a season ending injury:

You're right, I'm wrong. I apologize.

I didn't really think he bulldozed the Colts in the 4th. I thought they got a bogus PI call, a couple amazing catches by Butterfingers Welker, and Trent Richardson fumble.

      Seems like this team gets a lot of untimely injuries that come out of nowhere. Smith and Kelly, Lewis injuries just appeared out of nowhere. None of those injuries were even mentioned after the Bears game.

      Yep. He must of woke up Thursday with it. I assume Pinter will play center if he can’t go. That tackle slot is worrisome if smith can’t go. The defense is looking ridiculously banged up.

      Do you see any progress with Richardson?

      By Boondoggle · Posted

      QB is hard.  It's easy to sit back and expect guys to look like Marino but every QB has a different ceiling and a different path to that ceiling.  And again getting there is a long and tough road and the toughness in that road includes everything from injuries to quality of the team around them.   Richardson still looks like the guy we saw on tape in college.  He is an elite run threat who can put the ball anywhere on the field, but his consistency in ball placement is not good.  I used to believe that can't be fixed.  Until Josh Allen.  Now these types of QBs are guys teams will take a flyer on, because of supply and demand, and the immense impact if you can hit on one of them.  But here we are and he's still the same QB, which is a bit of a concern to me at this point.   It's not like he doesn't still have time to get his game in order.  He does.  And even if he fails in Indy he'll have another chance with another team due to his talent level.  So it's still too early to get all crazy about where he's at.   For myself I'll say what I keep saying about him: he needs to learn to move the offense from the protection of the pocket.  That is how you have a long career and end up in the Hall with a million passing yards.  If he does not develop that part of his game the end result will be his teams will use his legs to move the offense and he'll get hurt and miss time and demonstrate why RBs have such a short shelf life.  So his career is in his hands.  He has to learn and do it or he'll suffer the results.
