    Well yeah, if you are born that way, there is little hope you can improve. Keep thinking man to man will work against Luck. Unlike MM, he's a really good QB, and will eat you alive. Remember the TD pass where he just dropped it right in over the receiver's shoulder? You also never play man to man with a QB that can run.

    So you come down in the camp of soft zone and die by a thousand cuts....or throws to wide open slow white te's then?

    The slow TE should have never been that open, but a few times Luck just put the ball exactly where it had to be. The defender on the left? Throw it to his right. The entire problem with the D yesterday is they never got pressure on Luck. People on this board (including me) thought we would eat up their O line due to all the injuries. Luck has been sacked 23 times in the last 5 games. Then he loses his starting guard to make things worse. Why we failed to only get two sacks is a mystery. Very few hurries either. So the zone is the right play, but without pressure it's not good. We drafted Dodd to be an elite pass rusher, but he can't even get on the field with his foot injury. We have to get pressure. It all starts there. And I also get "coverage sacks" but Luck is too smart for that.

    So..at last we basically agree...I just don't think luck is elite as we/the media makes him to be. I get the can't blitz manning/brady stuff...luck isn't close to that....and if he or any qb is ripping a zone apart then you have to send more after him...or lose...

    The more you send the more exposed our secondary becomes. Don't sell Luck short. He is a good QB. I think LeBeau tried everything he could yesterday and couldn't stop him, but part of that is lack of talent. You may not think so, but yesterday reminded me EXACTLY of watching Manning rip us apart.

    That's right. And the only way we ever beat Manning was to jam at the line and send a safety or LB. we did that only three times that I saw and got one sack and two incompletions.
