Congrats to Luck

[danlhart87]

Reaching the 40 TD mark in just his 3rd season! He makes mistakes but at the end of the day im happy he is our leader!

Congrats!  40 TD's and the franchise passing yards record are great.  Plus he has plenty to still work on and hopefully will continue to improve his game.

I also think its wise to compare and contrast (I think that's how to say it) a players overall production and importance to a team vs the mistakes he makes....Luck was a prime example of that this year......16 ints (which I really don't think is a ton to begin with but some people seemed to flip out some this year about it).....But he more then made up for that with more then double the TD's and with his ability to preserve under tough circumstances (primarily being a 1 dimensional team)

 

 

 

Bad plays are going to happen and they may happen...But ya have to look at a players production and weigh it with the bad, I have said for a long time now that Luck has a lot of Brett Favre in him(as has a couple others around here)....The GREAT and the bad....There will be bad but the great more then makes up for it....and the bad is not why Favre did not win more SB's...Nor is it the reason why we have not won a SB.

 

 

I'd gladly take and Andrew Luck or a Brett Favre as my QB on any day of the week

16 ints is still an improvement from last year if I'm thinking correctly.

He threw 9 last year....He threw 18 his rookie year

40/16 2.5/1 ratio. thats better then the average you want a QB to have of 2/1

[Coltsman1788]

Out of curiosity though...how many fumbles did he have?  It seemed like an awful lot this year.  That has to be added to his interception total and compared with his touchdowns to get a more accurate picture of his touchdown production vs. turnover problems.  That said...he had a great statistical year with his TD's and passing yards.

22 turnovers is way too many. I know Andrew Luck is above criticism in Indianapolis but I don't care. He can't be considered elite until he stops turning it over both by interception and fumble. Hopefully he doesn't give Cincinnati or Pittsburgh the ball 3 times next week like he did to KC last year. He had 7 INTs in 2 playoff games last year, that's pathetic.

[BProland85]

Obviously he has some work to do in the offseason with his turnovers. He has got to learn to take care of the football both through the air and when he is carrying it.

[Dr. Guildo]

40 tds. Plus he broke the teams single season record for passing yards which is not too shabby for a guy 3 years in to his career.   :yay:

Also looks like he will be the touchdown leader for the 2014 season. First of many I suspect.
