Ever occur to you that any Colts fan anger you might be finding is because Skins fans repeatedly go to Colts threads to talk about RG3? Much like yourself. Nobody can deny the talent of either of the qbs in question and anyone that does is ignorant. Eventually the comparison between the 2 will fade as they don’t play in similiar systems and their stats cannot be compared fairly.
_____________________________________
I have NEVER came on here to say anything negative against Luck !!!! I’ve always posted positive stuff about Luck. Don’t get it twisted. But fact is every time the Colts win the first thing Colts fans do is say something negative about RG3. Far more Colts fans troll Redskins columns than Cowboys, Eagles and Giants combined!!!!!! I hate people comparing them because your right. The styles and systems are different.

So when Luck has a poor game people say he’s just a rookie but when RG3 has ONE sub par game he’s a running QB and he’s a bust??? Not saying you said that but that’s the consensus I seeAND hear every week. Why is that???

——————————————————
No !!! Are You???I made a blatant observation about obvious the hate for RG3 from most Colt fans and it’s just crazy!!! And yet again a question is answered with another question designed to Not answer my question. So why do fans( Colt fans in particular ) dislike RG3 so much? How many have actually watched him play??? HTTR

My guess is this is how he gets injured. I’ve seen defensive players blow him up this year..I guess it’s his way of getting back lol.

Doesnt slide, blows up defensive players, good speed, accuracy. Total package.
True definition of a perfect #1 pick. One of the most complete QB’s early on I’ve ever see.
Good luck to you Andrew.

He’s damn good. I hope he doesnt get hurt making a tackle though. Someone is bound to put a ‘Hines Ward’ on him.

——–

This is incorrect. You can argue that the Colts have played a soft schedule, but it is not because they finished in last place last season. Only the Browns game has been as a result of previous record. The AFC South plays the AFC East and NFC North this year, so Bears/Vikings/Packers and Jets/Dolphins are scheduled to play every AFC South team. Only the Browns and Chiefs (later this season) are related to previous record.

As for the schedule being soft, the NFC North is the best division in football right now and the Colts are 2-1 against those teams.

What annoys me is people don’t bring up that he is actually just as athletic as Cam Newton. People always say, “mobile QBs” can’t win the Superbowl, and are completely blinded by the color of people’s skin. Elway, Young, Tarkenton and now Luck are extremely mobile and were real threats to run the ball, just like Netwon, Vick, etc.

That same helmet that no defensive player is allowed to even breath on, was used to hit defensive guy around the knees. Stop. If you want to praise him, praise him when he wraps a defensive guy up with both arms and takes him to the ground – something you won’t see a QB ever attempt to do after an interception.

Lets not be jealous that the kid is great. Even if you are a Colts hater get over yourself. The kid is everything you want in a QB.

I’m not a Rivers fan but you have to respect that in a QB.

It was amazing that he got up so quick, and scared a lateral out of the DB

Not that anyone is holding back on hitting QBs, but it was the kind of hit that certainly would have been penalized on a QB. And could end a career.

So, was there a helmet laying around that he picked up to hit Landry with?

Seems to me he would have used HIS helmet on his head, but that’s just me.

It might not be that intelligent to man-up like that in the pros, Indy’s season, and future, depend on his health.

If QBs can’t get touched, they shouldn’t be allowed to tackle.

Luck Has 16 turnovers (fumbles + Picks) this season and 396 dropbacks (Rushes + Pass Attempts) This works out to just over a 4% turnover rate. This % would rank him right there with Rich Gannon #14 lowest of all time. As a comparison Manning averaged 3.5% and is #5 all time. So don’t just throw total turnovers out there like the talking heads on TV do.
