Monday Night Countdown: Andrew Luck needs more around him.

Benjamin, Olsen, Stewart, etc is better than what the Colts have, TBH. And their o-line is trash. Luck just puts up massive numbers and wins anyway because they play terrible teams and he tm throws 50+ times a game. 

The problem I have is...

When Luck is completing 55% of his passes for 3 TD, 2Int & a Fumble but the Colts win anyway because they're playing the Jaguars it's "OMG Luck is amazing!!! Greatest young QB ever!!! MVP & SB favorite!!!"

Then when they start a season with one loss, literally one loss, it's "OMG POOR LUCK HE HAS NO HELP!!! INDY NEEDS A NEW HC, OC, OL, WR, RB & DEFENSE LUCK CAN'T DO IT ALL GODDAMMIT!!!"

don't agree with the first part but I do agree with the second.

Luck is good.  Luck also plays like he has an elite D that will makeup for lots of dumb throws.   National media tends to overlook all his dumb plays. 

This^^^

The media touts him as a God when he has a few 4th quarter comebacks.  However, they overlook the fact that they needed miraculous 4th quarter comebacks because he threw 3 Int in the first three quarters due to bad decision.

andrew luck sucks because he plays in the AFCS but the panthers are a contender even though we've only played AFCS teams so far. also football is a team sport for when cam has bad games and gets blown up by a porous o-line but the colts are different b/c they play with 22 andrew lucks.

We aren't the ones hyping him man, it's the media that says poo like "Andrew Luck is the best qb ever" as well as "Andrew Luck carries the Colts", while at the same time placing blame on Cam for everything. So really, this thread is simply counteracting ESPN.

Great point.

Reminds me of old Jake Delhommme. Loved his fire. But that man would put the team in some tough situations. Yet, he'd usually find a way to pull us out of his horrible mistakes. When he couldn't put together those 4th quarter comebacks, everyone started to acknowledge how bad he really was.

Last nights game was so much fun. Luck would make a terrible play and then Gruden goes on about how great Luck is or blames any player not named Luck.  We laughed our asses off all night. 

It was almost as epic as when Mike Vick returned and Joe Theismann said his name like 500 times.  They shouldn't show that stuff on TV. Kids could be watching.

    • I have been on the Bech bandwagon since well before the SR Bowl.  Hoping that he would stay a hidden gem and we'd be smart enough to grab him late.  I just don't think Morgan cares as much about WR as we do
    • No one had posted in a month.  I don't think any of us were watching
    • Here is how this draft could get mind-blowingly complicated--Interesting comment about Jags floating the Jeanty idea to lure Chicago into a trade.  I have to think Ben Johnson is going to duplicate in many ways the success he had in Detroit, and I have to think their free agency was following the blueprint Carolina designed last year (one that the Saints designed before them with Brees) and they upgraded all of their interior linemen.  RT in Chicago is set; Johnson loves RT Darnell Wright.  However, at LT, Braxton Jones is coming off a December injury and is considered to be in a competition for the position this year by at least a few fans on the Bears Wire.  His PFF score, however, was solid, posting an 80+ score in pass protection and 70+ score in run blocking.  He is in his prime.  However, in some of their fan mocks, the Bears are taking a LT.  I thought they needed an Edge to play 4-3 strong side across from Sweat, but they signed Odeyingbo to a pretty big contract in March. For the Bears, in my view, it comes down to TE or Running Back. Kmet is their #1 TE and he had 474 yards in that role, which was 25th in the NFL last season for TEs.  Adding Warren would help upgrade the TE spot and give them the ability to add around an estimated 80 yards of production per game.  The Bears have D'Andre Swift at RB, but could use a RB to pair with him for a desired 2 RB attack.  So if I am Da Bears, I stay at 10 and take Warren.  If the Jags want to move on from Etienne, then they will take Jeanty. I think, if I were the Jags (with 10 picks this year) I would take Mason Graham and not try to get an 11th pick.  It is a need position, and it seems to me the only reason they are toying with the idea of moving on from Etienne is because Jeanty is on the board.  That, to me, would be a luxury pick. New GM, I think he does not get cute--they take Graham if they stay at 5.  I might say the Jags' biggest need is Corner.  #5 is too rich for Will Johnson, but remember, they have 10 picks.  could they move up with Cleveland and take Hunter, giving them a CB and WR threat?  To me, with the draft capital they have, that is the move they should make.  Cleveland then could move back to #5.  Remember, Nick Chubb is an aging (29) free agent coming off an injury--so he is gone.  With an additional second rounder, the Browns move back and take Jeanty to give Flacco a running game. The Jags pick is very interesting, but I would not be surprised to see them move up.
