Andrew Luck Deserves His Share of Blame


James Harden

Recommended Posts

Go back and watch the 2011 season and you'll be kissing Luck's feet again. 

 

Look I get it it's fair to critique Luck and point out he hasn't been perfect.  He hasn't been and several here have done just that, myself included. 

 

However, some tend to go over board with it at times and then hide under the phrase "What I can't be critical?"  No one ever said people couldn't but there is a difference between offering fair criticism and ripping a guy just because you want to do rip someone because often times people are mad about something.  IMO, too often criticism here crosses into the later category here. 

 

As for Luck, yeah he's made his fair share of mistakes.  However, for a second year QB who is without his Hall of Fame WR, has a very limited running game, and is running for his life just about every time he drops back to throw he's doing just fine.  Honestly, the Colts are without five starters on offense, that's half the starting offense and then what's left is also very young other than DHB, Brown, and the offense.  DHB has been a bust I don't think anyone is going to argue that.  Brown has been better than he has been in the past but still isn't anything remarkable.  The fact that Luck has been able to lead that offense to 8 wins with all the injuries the offense has had is a bit remarkable. 

 

Can Luck improve?  Sure and more importantly I am sure he will.  He's a second year player guys and he's already playing better than most second year players do and as good if not better than most QBs in the league.  What more do you want from a guy in his second year?  Sure he has flaws and I am sure he and the coaches work of them every day but man for a second year player he's pretty darn good.

    • Colts would still be in Baltimore if they build them a new stadium, but no.After the colts are gone Baltimore builds a new stadium and takes Cleveland's football team. Should of kept the Colts to begin with. 
    • To be clear…. There has not been a suspension for a second violation.  This suspension is for the original incident which happened three weeks ago, back on April 17.   I think Doyel issued two apologies.  One that night and the other the next day.  Honestly, as awkward and clumsy as it was, I thought Doyle actually meant well.     I dislike Doyel as much as anyone.  But I think this is a bit of overkill.  I don’t think it comes from the Indy Star.  The newspaper is now owned by Gannett which owns USA Today.  Corporate wheels move very slowly.  I wish this had blown over.    If I had thought for a moment that Doyel was being a jerk or a bad guy in any way I wouldn’t mind someone dropping the hammer on him.  This all feels a bit much, but life is often unfair.     Ok…. I’ve defended Greg Doyel.  I’ll go take a shower now.       
    • I wonder if Pierce might be used more instead of just being a deep threat? 
    • I'm watching an NBA game for the first time in at least 5 years. I don't know any of the players but Turner looks familiar.    My brother is right. They are playing a lot faster than what I remember in the past. It is a lot more fun.   Maybe I don't remember but it seems that the refs are not calling Traveling as much as they used to. Is that right? They are letting the guys play. It is much more fun to watch.
