    The Colts are the worst run franchise outside of maybe the Browns. They were gifted two franchise QBs in a row.

    But the talent around Luck is so bad, we should have no issues beating them with our current roster. Paying Luck what he's worth essentially requires them to draft exceptionally well. I think we know that isn't going to happen until Pagano and their GM get canned.

    The GM did get canned

    They hired Chris Ballard as new GM, he's highly touted around the league.

    I think he did an okay job this off season but he needs more time.

    Rodgers throws 50y+ hail marys (across his body on his back foot) like Sam Bradford throws checks down.

    Colts didn't buy talent this summer like the Jags did

    They drafted 2 promising secondary players in Wilson/Hooker

    I liked the Marlon Mack & Tarell Basham picks as well.

    They used free agency to add competition.

    Very different model from the Jags

    Luck is a mediocre QB. The end.

    if you're not ready to admit that in 2017, we'll give you time to come around within the next few years...

    Told everyone the Jags suck...and so does Andrew Luck. Just look at his big game numbers...I agree he doesn't have much help, but they are all over him and it's ridiculous. Anytime he plays a hard team, he folds like origami.

    I guess anyones career completion would drop if their forced to pass the ball 40+ times a game, as to where MM8 passes 25 times a game. Huge difference.

    He doesnt beat 'elite teams' beacause the talent around him is very weak, but he has done much more than any other young QBs in the league with alot less talent and it isnt even close.

    But this going back and forth with you is really going nowhere, it seems as if you had made your decision than Luck isnt a top 10 nor is he even close to top 5 QB - in your opinion, and thats fine. Last time, go look at his offensive lines his had to play with and tell me thats not the reason why he isnt getting beat up. Really its not that hard to see that his roster is pure garbage, outside of a young Hilton.

    Not really arguing this argument but lets bring the stats in.

    Mariota 883 passes in 28 games (I subtracted his last game in 2014 that he got injured going 3/6) that is 31.5 per game

    Luck 2651 in 70 games is 37.8 attempts per game.

    It's more, but your numbers are off.

    Dunno where your looking that up. But I usually use PPF one of the most creditable stats site for the NFL.

    Under Mariota Titans

    NFL Team Pass Attempts per Game


    2015 - Titans were best; 21st out of 31 teams
    2016 - Tennessee 28th pass atemp best; 28th out of 31 teams

    Lets look at Luck Colts since he became a starter


    2012 - Colts were 5th pass attemps in the league
    2013 - Colts were 12th pass attemps in the league
    2014 - Colts were 2nd best in the nfl leading the league, were NO Saints were first.

    Honestly it isnt even close.
