Luck's rookie year was so much fun. You would here these stories --legends, and you knew something great was about to happen. He was big, strong, and had the potential to be amongst the greats.

 

He still is all those things, but the storyline has changed. According to the general media, he's over rated, injury prone, and a turnover machine. The player has remained the same, but public perceptions have changed.

It's not just the media. Fans of other teams think the same thing too.

it becasue we missed the playoffs two years in a row

 

they didnt really watch the colts so luck gets the blame. very few of them realize we had the 30th ranked defense and were 23d in running yards.  if not for lucks own scrambles we would have had even fewer rushing yards

KC and Broncos fans here in Denver definitely think he is top 10. They see the difference QB play like Lucks can make overall.

 

Yeah, I live in Colorado, and know TONS of Broncos fans. Every single one of them would take Luck over Siemien/Lynch in a heartbeat. The fanbases that seem the most dismissive of Andrew Luck are Raiders and Seahawks fans.

Green at corner? That's interesting, but if his coverage at safety is lacking, how is covering at CB gonna be any better

Maybe the best way to improve his coverage skills is to match him up against our best receivers (not our third string TEs).

If i remember correctly they said he used to play receiver in college before transitioning to DB. I think he may have an idea on how receivers run routes etc. Its interesting to say the least.

      Speaking only for me….    Indefinitely?   I hope it won’t be too long.   I think of you as an important member of the community, and you and I have knocked heads more than once.  But I think this community needs all the good posters we can get and I think yours is an important voice.      I’ve been suspended many times (nothing I’m proud of) but my point is I’ve always been welcomed back.  I’d expect you will be too.   I know you leaving is self-imposed,  but I hope it’s not too long before we see you again.     Until then….      NCF

      Since I was banned from the forum during the height of the best time to talk strategy and roster building… for posting laughing gifs (you know, since they were removed as an emoji)… I am going to remove myself from the forum indefinitely. I will admit that I have been condescending towards frequent negativity on here, and it is what it is. It is a sad irony when one can get banned from a forum for pettiness, while the GM of the forum’s organization can drop expletive after expletive with the national media, and get praised by many for it. (Not dogging on his tirade, just the irony behind it regarding this forum’s policing of words and comments.)    I look forward to the remainder of the offseason and rolling into the season which should be exciting. Happy with the picks- Latu and Mitchell should work well to address the explosive need on offense and limiting explosiveness on defense. Two true playmakers at crucial premium positions on this roster. Feels like we are going to look back and be lucky to have them fall to us. Stacking some quality o-lineman and filling the roster out with some speed and upside throughout the depth chart will be fun to watch come together and develop.    Have enjoyed discussion with many of you. Wish you all the best. Go Blue.
