I said he hasn't been asked to do as much as the other QB's. Is that not true?

well...
before the jets game where he got hurt,
dude was 64/96 839 yds 3TDs 2 INT in the 3 games where our running game was held to 200 yds combined....
I'd say that being asked to put the team on his shoulder which he's done in a stellar way when asked to
RG3 A+ while Luck who's playing better and has a better record B?
Luck really aint playing better, he is playing well but he isn't completing at the percentage rate or being as safe with the ball.
Luck has a few multiple int games already, record is such a team thing i`m not giving any of these rookies full responsibility for their record. Wilson's team is 4-4, but really should be 3-5 and owe that record mainly to their defense

Percentage rate means shyt when you're passing more often and more yards per attempt than any other QB in the league
what matters is 4 game winning drives (colts gave up 80 yard miracle bombs with less than minute left to lose one to jags)
what matters is taking a 2-14 squad of bums and doubling their win total in 7 games
what matters is having the highest win percentage at this point of the season than any other #1 drafted QB ever
you're gonna get it on Sunday anyway, so it really doesn't matter
did you watch tape or just skim thru it
I thought he was an over-hyped guy with "skills" who didn't have enough time at the QB position to come in and play well off the jump.
I`m not a big college football fan so I can't say I sifted through hours of game footage or watched him with a fine tooth comb.
The whole situation just didn't look good considering the team he was going to and their weapons, or lack thereof.

so what has significantly changed about this years Colts compared to last years team that was the worst in the league, that has allowed them to double their win total and already be in the middle of the playoff hunt.
What additions did they make that allowed them to be so much better
This same team (with more playmakers) was dumpster status a few months ago
dude, they had fukking Curtis Painter playing at QB for them, any of the rookie QB would've produce more wins than that bum

pretty much, but that was smartly countered by bringing in his whole college playbook and o-coordinator with him to the NFL

luck is a good qb already and hes a huge improvement from fukking painter. shyt, orlovsky was a huge improvement from painter as he was actually able to get the ball to wayne and shyt.
not to mention, last years colts defense just gave up in multiple games.
I like luck and hes looked like hes finna be a great qb like many thought. but you cant just use that winning percentage bullshyt.

can you tell me the head coach, offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator this year and last year ? are they the same ?curtis painter didn't play the whole season, kerry collins started and it took Dan fukking Orlovsky to go under center before the team got a win
The team as a whole was garbage last year. Take away more of their limited weapons and add Andrew Luck and they're magically in playoff contention and doubled their entire last seasons win total in 7 games
What a fukking coincidence right

They got rid of one of the worst coaches in the NFL.
Jim Caldwell was a fukking clown, one of the biggest crony hires in NFL history
BTW, this thrad in no way is ranking them as prospects or career talents, it's just a grading for 8 weeks of football.
Keep that in perspective

caldwell wasnt even a coach just a figurehead behind peyton.
no wonder flacco is pretty wack this year, caldwell is his "qb coach"
which translates to- throw the ball as you like joe Ill be just collecting this paycheck
