I love these 2 posts from this thread. The shortsightedness of some fans never ceases to amaze me. Wow. 

 

Could you imagine where we'd be without Luck right now? Oh my God, I don't even want to think about that nightmare. A chill just went down my spine literally. 

 

Yeah there aren't going to be that many capable of coming in and doing a better job under this current system.

So.....    to keep score.....

 

We are roughly halfway through this insane thread....    and one person agrees with the OP and says trade Luck.

 

Many agree Luck should play better.        But they also agree he's mostly played well this year and is the only reason we're even in the games we're in.

 

And the vast majority think this thread is insane......

 

OK.......     carry on.....       we now return you to your regularly scheduled programming!         :thmup:

LUCKS continuos mistakes in big moments kills COLTS---his interception in first half gave TEXANS momentum and his ground ball to T.Y. was another choke job.Tired of watching and listening to his dumb post game speeches

Ya trade the only person that makes this team relevant that's brilliant dumb * the QB can only do so much can't do it alone yes the int was a mistake but everybody makes mistakes and if you look at his and Mannings stats through 60 games lucks are way better than his all the way around even in int's. the interception was a killer but I blame Hilton just as much as luck on that ty could have made a better effort on that play he was right next to the guy who picked it he could have got in front of him and either caught it or knocked it down. Nobody is perfect if you faced as much pressure all the time like he does you would make mistakes too.

I would have to go back and look it up to be sure, but I think the original shoulder injury was early last season... and if that is the case why wouldn't they hold ahead and do the surgery while he was already out?  I think what you are seeing now is just the ongoing maintenance and therapy/rehab of that earlier injury? 

 

IMO his throwing motion and velocity look the same, and he has always had a tendency to get a little wild with the occasional throw especially when under duress. 

I agree.  If it was last year and serious enough they would have done the surgery.  So, I'm guessing it wasn't.  I hope you,re right on the rehab and that's all it is.  Just me, but I think it could have been injured again in an earlier game.  I'm seeing more bad throws and aiming which really bothers me.  Hopefully the line continues to improve and he gets hit less often.  A young QB missing or limited in practice is a red flag to me.  Hope I'm wrong.

I know things are bad right now sitting at 2-4 but without Luck we would be getting blown out every game and be 0-6 IMO. Imagine if Tolzein had been playing all of these games. I would be like that Bear above!

No, his team did better based on playoff wins in the first 5 years.

Based on individual, QB performance evaluation he is nowhere near Peyton Manning.

No, he isn't Peyton Manning and it's unfair to expect him to be, but he is still a very good QB.  Also the front office hasn't built around him, like they did with Manning.  Polian addressed the o-line much sooner than Grigson and he had two very good running backs for most of his Colts career.

I don't know if you should get rid of him,  but the criticism is spot on.  Im so sick of his robotic oress conferences after another dumb mistake.  That throw had no business being made.  None.  U ad 3pts there and we win.  Nuff said.  His play is causing us gms now.  

 

okay so what about Pagano's decision on going for it on 4th and 1 instead of kicking a field goal? or the defensive collapse in the final 4 minutes of the game? The defense once again could not close out a game. They had Lamar Miller stopped 7 yards behind the first down marker on that first TD Drive in the 4th qtr and Miller ran right by 5 or 6 defenders for a TD.

As for the thread....wow...who exactly are we going to replace him with? I'm up for any way to make this team better...any...but I see no realistic way getting rid of our most talented player could result in this team being better. That said I'm not going to totally absolve Andrew of his mistakes. He has played much better this year than last but with the margin for error so thin he just hasn't been quite good enough to get it done. This team is obviously not very good. In the last 16 starts Luck led teams are 4-12...this team is clearly not headed in the right direction. Andrew can improve on a lot of things....but the talent around him is pretty poor right now.

From Jim Sorgi to Scott Tolzien, WI Badger QBs drafted in the NFL usually suck & if you are forced to play them in your starting lineup at all, it usually means your season is over as in stick a fork in it; you're well done.

You want to call me immature after throwing your 2 cents in on a subject you know little of?

You make a statement on Lucks medical issues?

So since you probably wont read it line by line, I'll break it down for you: he's really right there or better than all of these QBs, with the exception of maybe Aaron Rogers who was incredible his first few years, depending on the stat. If you look at his record w/l vs Mannings, he well ahead of Peyton, especially in playoff wins.  Also, I do recall numerous times Peyton had multiple INT games, including a 5 and 6 INT games. So yeah, you be the one who needs to see the truth.

The 'bare' truth is you don't have a clue that Luck has been better than Manning over their first 4 years.

For you to say or think other wise shows your lack of understanding the NFL.

 

Yup he sure has but over the first 4 years the team as a whole I think is inferior to what manning had. By all means NOT A. Lucks fault

Luck actually has played Very Good all season, I wont say Great because we are 2-4 but he isn't Turning it Over at an alarming rate and he is completing a high % of his passes. He even had a 20 Yard TD run last night.

Agreed. Can definitely tell Luck worked hard this offseason on improving his game. I remember many folks not happy with hiring Schottenheimer for QB Coach but it appears hes done wonders for Luck.

Yeah, because it was Luck's fault that he got them the "winning" points only to watch the defense vomit on the field and lose the games vs. Detroit, Jax, and now Houston.  Win those 3 games, as they SHOULD have if the D could have just held on, and this team is 5-1 and things are a mighty bit chipper around here.  But why let facts get in the way of a good old-fashioned "pitchforks and torches" mob?  BURN HIM AT THE STAKE!  HE'S A WITCH!

    • I respect this Knicks team, their fans and media not so much. They think they are better than us because they live in a big city. Snobby to be honest. I remember the 90's when they were mocking us 'being Country like' and calling us Hayseeds. They have all the big celebrities that go to their games, like Spike, Jon Stewart, Tracy Morgan, etc..  My early look at this series:   -Brunson is going to be a problem, he is a Superstar, Haliburton is as well but not as consistent as Brunson is at scoring the ball. Haliburton is a better passer though, that is almost a wash. Brunson may be a tad better, but the Pacers have McConnell as well for depth, see my next point.   -Pacers have more depth   -Pacers are a better 3-point shooting team   -Pacers are a better Offensive team   -Knicks are better defensive team   -Knicks have HCA   This series is going to end up 2 ways. Either Pacers in 6 or Knicks in 7. Pacers will win in 6, if we can get one of 1st 2 games. If we fall behind 2-0, I doubt we can win 4 out of 5 against them.    Rebounding will be a huge key to this series as well. The team that gets a lot of 2nd chance points, will be the team that will probably win. The Pacers have the better Big's with Turner and Pascal but the Knicks are a scrappy bunch. 
    • He’s our dog man.  I gotta feeling he’s going to be a monster.
    • the thing is, our game changing TE may be on the roster in jelani woods.  He just has to stay healthy.  Remember that stretch of games where he scored a touchdown in every game he played in until he got hurt?     idk what injury bug bit him, but I hope it doesn’t bite him again this season. 
    • What a chump. Milwaukee and their fans are a dump. I hate the Brewers too being a Cubs fan.
    • Not only do I think we should’ve picked up the option, but I think we should retain him if he’s not too expensive.     He may not be the complete DE we want him to be, but he’s serviceable.  And it’s hard to find serviceable DEs.  Him and Latu would be a solid rotation and also gives us depth in case of injury.
