I'd love to see the Colts start out 0-2. I'm tired of hearing about Luck. He's good, but he still makes a lot of mistakes. Luck puts his team in a hole, and then we have to hear about the great comeback in the second half.

Luck is a good QB. I have no gripe about him. But the media hype does get annoying. Aside from that. The Colts are trying to make Luck the savior of that franchsie. A lot of pressure on him this season to get the job done. And right now he's looking too young for that role

Luck is good, but he's not in the top 3-4 like some in the media make him out to be. He throws way too many picks at this point. Instead of putting your team in a hole, and having to come back, how about playing well from the start, so that no comeback is needed.

I live in Indiana, but I just can't bring myself to remotely like this team. Too many years of Manning sucking, now the Luck suckfest.
 
I'm sure glad I have something to watch. This is one boring *** game.
 
They've assembled a bunch of garbage around Luck, especially the Oline. They can't pass block worth a damn. And his WRs are pretty worthless too. Luckily they are playing against FitzJourneyman or else they'd be down by 21 at this point.

some people (not here) said Luck was at least as good as Ben. Crazy talk! Suck for Luck!... and keep sucking with him
Also laughing at those saying the Colts were probably the second best team on the AFC behind the cheats.
 
Not much of either team that interests me. LUCK is very overrated !!!!! Way to many mistakes.


Salute the nation
 
Will say....jets secondary and d line are quite impressive.

Even though Johnson has been around the block, I expected him to have a productive year in Indy. I'm a little surprised with how that's turned out so far.

Excuses. 3 picks, and a fumble, and at home to boot. Ben excelled behind crappy lines.
 
My beef with Luck is that people still treat him like some kid with all this potential just waiting to flourish, but he's in his fourth year now. Sure he's good but like others have pointed out, he makes a ton of mistakes. He's not the guy you want putting the team on his shoulders and, let's face it, the rest of that team is hot garbage.

Yep

It seems for whatever reason. Something doesn't let him grow up. I think just putting all that pressure on him to become the new face of the franchise kinda misconstrued Luck's development as a QB. He plays the game like he's scared to make a mistake
 
Well in fairness his WRs are not good, and his Oline sucks. At least Ben had good receivers and RBs. With that being said I never thought Luck was all that. I think he is good, but he needs better players around him especially at the skill positions. I am shocked at how bad the colts are at the moment. 11pts / game sure is not going to cut it. I thought ESPN was nuts when most of the hosts picked the JETS, but I guess they were right.

It's not excuses, it's reality. Their Oline sucks and their skill positions are a mess. Any team that trades a first round pick for a bust like Trent Richardson has no clue what they are doing personnel wise. And this year they added a ton of age to the roster. Plus, they now have a coach in a lame duck season.

Me too and I like Andre Johnson. He's done his work and done it quietly. When he knocked the **** out of that little prick Cortland Finnegan, he become one of my fav non Steelers.

I think he left Houston feeling a little let down.
 
I watched the game up until the 4th quarter. At halftime, Luck's QBR was 17.6. Yes. 17.6. But hey media, he's an elite QB, ranked ahead of Ben and just behind Rodgers and Brady. I like the Colts- have never had a beef with them- and I love Pagano. But they are terrible this year, and Luck isn't all that.
 
Luck's committed more turnovers than anyone else going back to some week last season.
dont give a **** enough to look it up, but they flashed the stat on the screen last night.
 
To those pointing to his ****** oline, Ben has had one of those for most of his career and still moved the chains, and never had an elite WR group until last season.
 
Ben made all of his receivers. Of Ben's receivers only Nate Washington and Sanders exceeded their productivity outside of Pittsburgh. Everyone else has regressed. Another thing Ben never gets credit for.
 
before last night he was responsible for something like 28 ints and 9 fumbles since the start of last year or something like that. but hey he's elite

Hines and Plaxico weren't too shabby. Santonio didn't suck either.
