Setting aside the "Newton vs Luck" stuff...

... the Indianapolis Colts 2012 season is a great story.

And it's one that Panther fans who remember Sam Mills and the 2003 season ought to be especially able to appreciate.

Can tell you that I don't honestly expect they'll win a playoff game, but I'll definitely be cheering for them.

you play who they schedule you to play. Colts had zero control over that. when was the last time the Panthers won over 10 games? or made the playoffs?

it needs to burn each fan what the Skins, Colts and Seahawks are doing. Or the Vikings.

we are doing a great job of being the Bengals south.

soak that junk up with a biscuit and let it sit in your gut.

The Patriots live off of weak schedules on a pretty regular basis.

That whole discussion is irrelevant though, as for the most part are opinions of Andrew Luck.

Pagano's recovery, and his team's support for him, are inspiring human interest stuff. And it definitely brings back memories of 2003.

One difference. From what I can see, it looks like their story will have the happy ending I wish ours could have had.

I honestly wouldnt mind luck or RG3 if the media didnt bash Cam all the time. The only thing i have against these guys is im jealous for Cam. Just think its unfair that so many people get the wrong impression of Cam just because ESPN wants to make his story to be out a certain way. It really irks me, thats my QB!!!

As good as advertised. Great quarterback, great person. He gets my vote for rookie of the year and a quick glance at MVP (i'd give that award to P Manning) Luck has earned a look imho

Luck needs to cut down on his turnovers, and his completion % is horrible. He isn't "great" at the moment. Had a mediocre/average season. He's gonna be a good one, though. Just gotta get them turnovers down. I don't know about his accuracy, though. You can't teach that. Either you've got it or you don't. He doesn't have it.

accuracy can be coached to some degree at least. we've seen cam's accuracy improve significantly when our coaches were invested in working on his footwork.

luck's raw numbers look better because his attempts are sky-high. drop him down to 275-325 pass attempts and he's pretty damn pedestrian.

    • Super raw, not sure he is worth a top 10 pick.  Primary a pass rusher.  A bit like Burns, very fast athletic but doesnt always follow the play.  His highlights look good but when you watch him play you can see he is just raw and needs to develop
    • Personally, I am not sold on Bryce yet--and I do not think anyone is saying they are, but I don't think Ward is on table when we draft anyway.  Not even sure if I would rather have him than one of the later QBs.  I see a lot of potential in Allar, Nussmeire, Rourke, and even Hamilton from Ohio State--Milroe is intriguing, but I am not sure he is an NFL QB.  Ewers is that sleeper who falls and becomes a solid starter. I think that we sign a veteran who has played and we draft one of these project QBs. To your point:  With that in mind, I think you have to take QB off the table in round 1, and if Bryce can string 4-5 games like KC together, we still need to draft a QB in round three or so---I really think Rourke is a great fit for this offense--he is accurate and gets the ball out quickly---he impressed me vs OSU.   Reason?  I think we may have a tough decision to make about Bryce in 2 years--will he be worth $60m?  That decision is a lot easier if you have been grooming a backup for 2 years who can play. In round 1: I am hoping for PSU's edge Abdul Carter In round 2:  I would like to see us grab a DT who can rush the passer.  Walter Nolen of Ole Miss is versatile and a bit raw. I think he could be an excellent complement to Brown. In round 3:  I would love ILB Danny Stutsman from Oklahoma.  He is a beast. With 11 picks, I would package our 4th rounders to move up into the third round and take a QB.  At the moment, I think Rourke is trending upward and he has the skills Canales seems to want in a QB.  Quick processor, quick release. I would use the fifth rounders on OL.  I know that I left out WR--however, we are getting Thielen back, XL will be improved, Coker will be improved, and Moore has been surprisingly good.  Sanders (TE) has been more than expected in the passing game.  I think we need D more than WR, and maybe we can get a veteran WR to sign or find a hidden gem late.  
    • Wouldn't be surprised if he starts a couple Jets games this year with the way the Rodgers thing is going. Giants fans are pissed they didn't keep him lol. He might actually have a little bit of a market.
