Nah man, you don't get THAT good at a position like quarterback unless you work your ass off at it. No way he was just taking it easy - he had such polished pro-level skills already by his freshman year in college that you know he had put in work.

And he was a warrior too:


I don't think he was taking it easy. Just that he was uber talented enough to do something he didn't fanatically love at an extremely high level. An the real warrior mentality shows up in the rehabbing not on the field, imo.

The guy he replaced damn near needed his head decapitated to retire. I still can't believe how Luck went out.

This is why Brady might just be the goat. He would never do no bishmade shyt like this.

This is why u draft Meatheads in the nfl. These genius dudes overthink shyt. Fukkin nerd.

Heaven forbid someone think of their health :comeon:

He's got a point though. Owners know certain guys have nothing else going on in their lives and can always count in them being available as long as there is a carrot in front of them. Look at how low Myron Rolle was drafted. Teams knew he wasn't going to stick around, so he went much lower than he should have.

somewhere between a pair of D cup tiddies
This shyt is crazy how it's goin down :snoop:
It's really just a microcosm of America in general. These reactions are making us look like a selfish, entitled, blood thirsty, uncaring bunch of a$$holes. Par for the course. Like everything else :francis:
Luck seems like one of the good/genuine guys too. Took a lot of balls to do that at this point preseason.
Don't fukk with our guns or football or you're dead to us :smh:

Peyton Manning was a glorified meathead. Same with Brady. They're football savants. Have no interest in anything else. U want guys that are all in. Big Ben is a rapist, but when he fell off his motorcycle wit no helmet, he was still ready to ball.

What got to luck is more mental than physical.

Yup. Pretty sure Luck is on record saying Soccer is his favorite sport. I feel like because genetically he got the perfect QB traits and his dad played in the league since he was born rich he just said "fukk it, why not?" No doubt he loved the game at one point. Perhaps if the Colts did a better job or he went to a better franchise he sticks around. Unfortunately that wasn't the case.

Apparently the injury he has is commonly found in soccer players. And I know his lil brother is a soccer player. I wonder if he got hurt playing soccer in the offseason.
