Valpo2004 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I see now that Luck does have a turnover issue. This year he has really turned into Mr. Fumbles. Someone on that staff needs to tell him when to give up on a play. Just take the sack. I wonder sometimes if his lack of faith in the O-Line and Defense makes him feel like he always has to make a play. But he needs to at least stop trying to throw it. At least attempt to run or something if you still want to try and make a play. He's also throwing the ball too high which is leading to tipped balls that get picked off. As much as people don't want to admit it, this is partially his fault. He throws it low, he throws it ahead or behind or he throws it right on the money and those balls don't get picked off, even if the receiver can't make the catch. But he throws it high and the receiver has difficulty getting the catch and when he doesn't the ball is tipped and any defender behind the receiver has a chance at an easy pick.

ProblChld32 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Ive realized that a lot of interceptions this season have come off of tipped passes, those interceptions i don't have an issue with because if you can touch the ball you should be able to catch it. Now there are those pesky interceptions that came off of poor mistakes on Lucks behalf due to being pressured or just mental errors. He struggles against pass defenses that make last min rotations or shifts. Boom didn't fumble last game but then again he really didn't get that many carries. Lastly MY GOD the fumbles absolutely killed us. EVERY skilled player needs to have a ball in there hand at all times throughout practice this week because we fumble WAY TOO OFTEN. We will not succeed in the playoffs if we cannot secure the ball. Its time to tighten up, and correct the small things going into the post season.

AntonMcG Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Great QB: Gift & CurseAaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning all just like Andrew. They believe there's a play to be made every down So so wrong, yet again. People get warning points for being rude on this forum, surely the same should apply for people who are constantly wrong, and constantly annoying.

Jason_ Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Of course not.But MANUSKYS 3-4 gets shredded by decent qbs and teams that can run the ball and PAGANO is not a head coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoColts8818 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Great QB: Gift & CurseAaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning all just like Andrew. They believe there's a play to be made every downNo. Peyton Manning is the one who once said the hardest thing he had to learn was a sack wasn't a bad play and when asked about changing plays that it wasn't about getting into a good play it's about getting out of a bad play. Sometimes the other team wins a down. Elite QBs recnginize that and don't let a bad play become a horrific play by being wreck less with the ball. Andrew needs to do a better job protecting the ball.

MJD42 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 No they do it too. Just not as costly as Luck. When the Pats played the Packers, Rodgers forced one to Nelson when Revis was all over him. Revis knocked it away though versus a pickThey all do it, it's just how often & costly they do it that separates them allSure, what QB throws a perfect game each time? Consistency is the issue and knowing when to throw it away and live to play another down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runthepost Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Only teams that really spanked us where Steelers and Pats. We lost to the Eagles and Bronco's but I believe both was only by 1 score.Broncos were up 31 to 7 in the 4th.. we came back to make it not so ugly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valpo2004 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Broncos were up 31 to 7 in the 4th.. we came back to make it not so ugly True but in that comeback we DID have the chance to win if you remember. We just failed to convert on 4th down. It wasn't like we scored a TD with 5 seconds left to make the score look not so bad . . . the comeback happened early enough to give us a chance to win. Therefore it doesn't count as a blowout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOMDColtsfan Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Turnovers and sloppy play has plagued this team all year, actually going back to last years playoffs. Its almost to the point of an undisciplined coached team. The 9-4 record says otherwise and maybe I`m just wrong, been before, just don`t think this team has really peaked yet and played its best football. Hopefully that is yet to come and things get rolling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
