Luck is Throwing

[deedub75]

So Reich hasn't even seen Luck throw and yesterday Ballard said Luck wasn't throwing?  Am I missing something here?  I guess Luck told him he was throwing.

As for how much Luck will participate and when he can start throwing with full velocity, Colts head coach Frank Reich said that's something that won't be known until the team gets to examine their franchise quarterback in two weeks.

 

"I really would like to take a guess at that, but I haven't actually put my eyes on him throwing or anything like that or I haven't gotten in-depth with him to the point of, 'Hey, tell me when you're going to let it rip,'" Reich said Tuesday at the coaches breakfast at the NFL's annual meetings. "I just trust that he knows that.

It's a Biblical reference.  Doubting Thomas (Didymus) was a disciple of Jesus Christ.  When told of the news that Jesus had risen, Didymus stated that he would not believe it until he could see Jesus and put his finger where the nails were and run his hand in the opening of the spear.  Jesus appeared to Didymus a week later and basically told Didymus to verify what he needed to verify and then he believed.

 

Ahhh... I'm not the most religious guy around, so Bible references will go over my head from time to time. Thanks for clarifying.

Until about 15 years ago, I wasn't a very religious guy either.

If Frank said he's throwing, then he's throwing. We can believe Frank.  However, he didn't say how far he's throwing.  I'm guessing five yards at most.

Turns out he's not throwing normal sized footballs yet.

Neither was Brady and it worked out OK for him.

Anyone can throw a nerf turbo far, give luck some credit maybe 10 yards

    Said they were getting him to incorporate his lower body more.

    I’m surprised Shotty didn’t emphasize that, it’s pretty basic.

Clarification. He's throwing smaller footballs to work on his mechanics. Apparently his strength is adequate now.
