Thank you Andrew Luck!

A little late but if it wasn't for Andrew Luck skipping the 2011 NFL Draft "rumors were he didn't want to play in Carolina", we wouldn't have drafted Cameron Newton with the #1 pick.

8 years later Cam Newton is the franchise first NFL MVP and led us to a Superbowl appearance. Meanwhile Andrew Luck had a hot start to his career in which many thought he was the future face of the NFL, now his career has been question with injuries and not many wins for his team.

Remember when people thought Andrew Luck (even our own fans at the time) would be better than Cam Newton. Funny how things can be so wrong.

 

Thank you Andrew Luck!

Luck massively fuged up his shoulder ~3 years ago. Hard to compare his career to what might have been in Carolina, given that a chance injury has massively derailed his development.

That said, he was definitely overrated before that, and certainly is now as well, perhaps even more so.

You chose to post this on a day when Luck had 4 TDs, put up 34 points?  

Besides Russell Wilson, Luck has had one of the weakest supporting casts on offense the last 3 or 4 seasons, and not a defense to speak of.

This reeks of insecurity.  If you really didn't consider Luck a threat to Cam's legacy, posting something like this would never have crossed your mind.

4 TD's and 34 points vs the 0-3 Texans and which the Colts loss the game. LMAO!

 

Cam Newton>Andrew Luck

 

Deal with it!

I'm baffled that you can unironically type this up after all the rants you've made about DJ Moore.

Cam is on a team with a defense, but if you look at his receivers, its probably a worse group overall than Luck's or Wilson.

Yeah you guys sound really secure about your ranking of Luck vs Cam with all these posts constantly reaffirming it the last few years, even on days luck puts up 4+ TDs and more points than Carolina all season, lmao.


Don't see these same threads for Andy Dalton :thinking:

 

I take Cam because availability is the best ability, but Luck is an elite QB and if you don't take into account injury history and prefer a more traditional pocket passer with impeccable accuracy while still having a good degree of mobility, it doesn't bother me.

You guys lol

One person made a thread. And if Luck is  "elite" in your eyes, I really don't want to see the rest of your elite list

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
