10 Burning Questions - Clark Judge


Recommended Posts

Okay, I didn't see anything posted about this article on CBSSports.com. It's a speculative piece about the coming NFL season and has a positive spin on the whole Luck versus RGIII debate.

Oh yeah, item 3 discusses the Broncos outlook with some new quarterback they picked up during the off season as well...just in case you might be interested.

2. Who has more immediate success -- Andrew Luck or RG3?

Andrew Luck is the more ready of the two to step in and take over a pro huddle. He was trained in a pro-style offense at Stanford, and he thrived in it. But he doesn't have the experience around him that Griffin does in Washington. Nor does he have a head coach like Mike Shanahan, who loves to develop young quarterbacks. Still, I say Luck has more immediate success for two reasons: 1) His background in a pro-style offense and 2) the schedule. Five of Washington's first eight opponents are playoff teams, including the defending Super Bowl champions, and three of Griffin's first four starts are on the road. Now compare that to what's ahead for Luck: Three of his first four games are at home and only one of the Colts' first nine opponents made last year's playoffs -- with only two of those nine producing winning records. Then there's this: Luck's favorite receiver at Stanford, tight end Coby Fleener, is one of his targets in Indianapolis. If you're looking for the early edge -- and we are -- Luck has it.

I strongly disagree with this statement. Andrew Luck has Bruce Arians who loves to develop young quarterbacks.

Thank you.

I was racking my brain trying to figure out what young QBs Shannahan has groomed....Elvis Gerbac?! John Beck?!

Maybe by grooming they mean combing their hair. Shanny is one of the most overrated coaches in the league IMHO. Take away Elway and what has he done?

IIRC Shanahan has had a history of developing running backs and run oriented offensive lines.

During his little evaluation on who will have more immediate success he failed to mention our Offensive Line or the Redskins O Line for that matter both will be a major factor in who is more productive, I gave it to Luck if he gets the protection but I dont think he will consistently enough this year
