So um......Andrew Luck looks amazing out there. | Page 4

Just the way he moves around the pocket and the accuracy with his throws....WTF? we hear it but yeah he really does look like a Vet out there. I mean sure I might seem like I'm late on this..but I was just giving it time...watching him here and there..waiting for defenses to adjust, to challenge him....to see how he'd adjust. But half way through the season he seems to be improving. I'm sure next season defenses will be even more ready for him, but its crazy to think how he'll do with added weapons. I mean I watched him at Stanford...and I expected him to do well...but its weird when you actually see it happen in a rookie. I really believe his play is uplifting his teammates out there. From Vets who are rejuvenated with the success, to youngins who are carrying their college confidence into the pros. And of course with Coach Pagano's battle, which is most likely keeping everyone grounded. Lets see how he does on a shortened week and national television....the pressure is on him, the Jags are doing horrible...the Colts are expected to make this look easy..but as you know with the NFL...anything can happen. anyway, just want to say he is fun to watch....and if you haven't had a good chance to watch him, check him out on NFL.com here is a link to Sunday's HLs.... about 4mins worth...about half of his completions but with some nice replays. http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-highlights/0ap2000000089920/Week-9-Andrew-Luck-highlights

He's the poster boy for anyone that thinks all QB's need to sit on the bench for years and years before starting.

Not all, but it is beneficial for those that don't come from pro-style offenses.

what are you talking about? Luck would output the same type of production we are getting with Alex here.....its just how Harbaugh's offenses are.

If Alex was QBing the Colts on Sunday he would've thrown for 430 yards and 2TDs with those same offensive powerhouse weapons.....if not more.

LMAO!

EDIT: I didn't see who posted that comment. It's something somebody on here would post and be serious about it. lol

Luck wasn't just some hot college QB though. He ran a pro-style offense and was widely considered NFL-ready out of the gate. He was the Calvin Johnson or Randy Moss of QBs.
