Drew1023 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Does anyone else see that Luck had 7 interceptions in two playoff games as an issue? I'm not saying he is horrible but does this make you think differently of him or agree with the Bayless article a little more? I know that not all of them were Luck's fault but still 7 interceptions in two games in the postseason is kind of significant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draztik Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 It's concerning but being a second year QB with the whole Offense on his shoulders, no running game and not very good protection... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snkdy Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 He threw 9 all season. It was a terrible time for this to happen, but his defense and run game didn't really help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoColts8818 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Luck is young QB. Young QBs make mistakes with the ball especially against good teams in the playoffs. He'll learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
House Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I would safely say two can be attributed to the receiver. But he didn't play great today. KC he was great, only he was playing from behind all game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nerd12 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Guys calm down. He can throw 10 for all I care. We were right in both of these games. Talking heads will love to mention his 7 INTs in the playoffs and so be it. He is still in his second year, thats something I never forgot this season.

#12 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 He wishes he had a few back, but Luck is the only reason they won 11 games, the only reason they are in the the playoffs, and the only reason they won last week. This team flat out sucks. Like Manning, it's all on Luck. I pray it's not that way for the next 14 years, but that's the reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSColtsFan Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 The harsh reality is this team can't run the ball. And down, all the time, INTs will happen. Some on Luck for sure. Some are absolutely about always needing to throw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

our_dbs_rock Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 A lot of the interceptions were kind of 'flukey' plays, not necessary bad throws. They were just great plays by the defense or the ball just 'bouncing' the other way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chad72 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 All I can say is never take playoff wins for granted. We can dog on Peyton all we want but we do need to keep in mind that playoff wins are not given out like candy, they have to be earned. But the D, it was not playoff caliber D. Seemed like the old Colts run D to me. We can't hope to win shoot outs in the playoffs most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew1023 Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 I just don't see how he can be called a great quarterback and get away with throwing 7 interceptions. Can we at least all agree that he isn't anywhere near a Brady or Manning level and definitely not a top 5 or 10? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fx Stryker Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 While two weren't his fault this week. And if I remember one wasn't his fault last week. He is young, but as I said he needs to learn he can't do it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennymoore24 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 You know what is so damned irritating is that everytime the Colts get close in a game winging the ball, the go back into handing the ball off and punting. They stopped NE like 3 times in a row and did nothing on offense. I'm not concerned about Luck. He is a young QB in his second on a team with no running attack, no defense, and not a great receiving cast. Some decisions are really bad, but he will get better.

Draztik Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 He plays so great we forget he's a second year player. Look at Wilson today. He didn't play well either but had a running game to fall on and a D to depend on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#12 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 People do realize the difference in playing QB for the Seahawks and for a * team like this, right? Were Luck, like a monkey, to hand the ball off for 4 quarters and wait for his defense and running game to do their thing, what would the result be?

amfootball Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Tough, tough game for Luck. Pats took TY out as we knew Bill would and roughed him up and he was forced to hold the ball. Still, I really like Luck a lot and his grit. He will come back next year even hungrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, today Brady didn't even have a TD. The same can't be said for Andrew. He didn't play well today. But I'm not worried about the future. He will be fine.

No 1 Manning Fan Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Two of the picks were unforced. He made really bad reads and really bad decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColtsBlueFL Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 The immediate pick six wan't a good sign for tonight. But he'll bounce back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason_ Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 only one was his fault 2 of the first 3 tonight were his fault. He was very inconsistent with his reads and decision making tonight and was staring down his receivers quite a bit. These are things he will improve on with time. He's still a young QB. All this means is that a lot of people need to keep their expectations realistic. Sure, Luck may be one of the best Qb prospects in a long time and yada yada, but he's not the best QB in the league right now and I'm not even sure if he should legitimately considered in the top 10. That's not a knock on him at all. It simply means that he lacks NFL experience which he will gain in time and in that time I have no doubt that he will continue to improve and correct those mistakes.
