It makes him extremely overrated. He's just not that great. People need to get off his nuts.

If I could pick one player to start a franchise with from the entire NFL it'd be Luck

He's phenomenal

I think his potential is through the roof.

He's going to be a good one. If you watched the game, he made some outstanding plays and threw a couple balls right on the money.

He does make mistakes, but that happens, specially with young players.

He's the best young QB in the game, bar none. He will learn from this game and grow from it. I just wish the dude would leave his helmet on, forever. I don't want to look at that horrid head of his. All kinds of fail up there.

That first pick was horrendous. It looked like something Andy Dalton would do.

The third or fourth pick (in the middle of the field to the linebacker) was also terrible.

Questionable decision making all night from a guy that's supposed to have amazing field intelligence.

Hard to fully judge him though as his teammates suck.

He stares down WR's like an Ethiopian starring down a Big Mac.

Dalton has AJ Green, Sanu, Jones, Eifert, and Gresham, and BJGE and GB as running backs, and the Bengals OL

lets see, for Andrew Luck,
His best receiver is TY Hilton... there is no comparing Andy Dalton to Andrew Luck
If Luck is overrated, and he may be, then Andy Dalton is snowing everyone, he might not even be a quarterback.

Among QBs who started at least 8 games, only Alex Smith, Nick Foles and Peyton Manning had a lower INT percentage this season than Luck.

He's not interception prone. In the playoffs he was taking an undermanned team and carrying them on his back. That requires a gunslinger mentality.

The smarts, mobility, toughness in the pocket, arm strength and accuracy are off the charts.

My only worry about Luck is if the Colts can surround him with talent. Their GM throwing away a pick on Trent Richardson is suspect

Trent would have a better year next season, I would imagine. It just doesn't seem like a good fit, only thing is, athletes change, and Running Back is one of those positions where someone can be a God one season and be much weaker and slower the next.

Luck is still new/inexperienced enough that he doesn't realize when he should just 'eat' the ball & not force the pass. Also, the Colts, despite Donald Brown's best efforts, are a lack-luster running threat at best.

These are the reasons why Luck threw seven interceptions in the last two games.

It's amazing how there's always an excuse for Luck, and he gets the benefit of the doubt

Andrew Luck is going to be great for years to come. He make terrible decisions yesterday (and I am very happy that he did) but he will learn from his mistakes and become very good.

The point is how many QBs could take that roster further than Luck did

So which is it?
luck is amazing because he has a shitty team around him and won a playoff game, or

How is luck supposed to win with such a shitty team around him.

You can't have it both ways

What do you have against the guy? He took a 2 win garbage team to back to back 11 win seasons in his first 2 seasons, he only threw 9 picks this season with a mediocre run game, he regularly brings his team back in games, and has played well in the playoffs.

What is there to hate so much?
