Bortles vs. Luck
|
Quote:The INTs are what will keep Luck from ever being Rodgers, Peyton, Brady. As for Blake? Who knows. I'd take his potential over Dalton/Tannehill that someone else mentioned. Would u say Brett Favre was elite? I'm not sure how many interceptions he threw compared to Luck at this point in their careers, and my google is broken today so I can't look it up... I think Luck has a pretty good chance to turn in to that elite level QB over the course of the next few years. As it goes, it doesn't matter because there's nothing we can do about it, except hope Bortles is better. I can't say if he will be or not at this point.

Quote:Would u say Brett Favre was elite? I'm not sure how many interceptions he threw compared to Luck at this point in their careers, and my google is broken today so I can't look it up... Luck will move up closer towards the top of the QB chain as the elite Qbs (P Manning, Brady ect...) in front of him right now, either retire or their skills diminish because of getting older. It's really only a few years away as Brady will be 38 next season and P manning will be 39. There really isn't many great young QBs in the NFL right now ( Rodgers and maybe Wilson) and that will just move Luck even further up the QB ladder. Some good ones maybe, but do you see Brady/Manning greatness in any of the young QBs out there except for Rodgers, and he just turned 31? Unless some of the young QBs in the league right now develop into really great Qbs, Luck will probably be near the top behind Rodgers and either in front of or behind Wilson, depending on who makes out the list.
I survived the Gus Bradley Error.

I'm not denying Favre that. And not saying you can't be "elite" throwing a lot of INTs. But I'd rather have Rodgers 35-5 than Luck's 38-14. I just don't think Luck's game is suited to him drastically cutting down those INT numbers. It is what it is. They're both better than what we have, for now, hopefully.
IT WAS ALWAYS THE JAGS
... are you serious? Luck came out of the box looking light years better than Bortles on his best day! But there is this; luck is also playing with veterans, including some pro bowlers. Bortles isn't... 'nuff said.
Luck had better throwing mechanics from the get/go while Bortles still needs a lot of work. I think that Bortles was a good draft, just not at #3 overall. Still... he's our guy now so we've got to go with who we have. The #1 thing Dave needs to do to help this kid is to get some bodies on that line in front of him who won't whiff on blocks and get pushed backwards into him half the time! 'Nuff said on that subject...
I y'ams who I y'ams and thats all I y'ams...
Luck had a possible HoF WR bailing him out a LOT in his first year. However I still think Luck has the most upside of any QB in the NFL barring possibly Rodgers.

Luck is better now, but I could picture Bortles surpassing him. Just depends on his development, the players around him, and the playcalling. I expect Bortles to develop quite a bit, whereas Luck may have already peaked. If anything, I expect Luck to regress especially when he gets the biggest contract in NFL history
Quote:Hahah exactly. This thread is a joke. The joke is how your man-love played today. Blake has never been benched for Hasselbeck. So he has that going for him. Which is nice. In time, maybe he'll do that as well as luck, too...

We can only hope Blake can lead this team to 3 straight playoff appearances starting with his rookie season.... Also not a man love... Just know a good QB when I see one.
Quote:Who do you think will be/is better than the other? Right now, obviously Luck is performing better but Bortles has shown us a few moments that show us he can be just as good as Luck. I now I might sound like a parrot, but I think Bortles just needs more time (offseason) to properly fix his mechanics, and we need an offensive line. Who do you guys think can be better? I'm a Jaguar homer and thus a huge fan of Blake Bortles but even I couldnt vote for him in this poll. At this point in his career he hasnt proven to be as good as Luck.. that could change over time and thus I would select Blake out of hope but based on facts luck wins this poll at this particular point in time.

If the Colts called Caldwell and said "We will trade you Luck for Blake straight up." You think Caldwell wouldn't take the deal? I'm also prefacing this by saying I still REALLY like Blake.
The only way anyone would take Bortles over Luck is if they got their names confused.

I saw Luck play worse that Gabbert last night. I'm going to have to say Blake has the higher ceiling.

Quote:I love the two homers who voted Bortles. Luck is in a totally different league right now. Infact Andrew Luck maybe the best Qb in the AFC. Yes better than brady He's not better than Brady, yet.
Luck is like top 6-7 right now. Not quite elite but almost their. Blake has more seasoning to do period. Blake has potential to be a top 5 qb but next year he needs to take a stride in proving that. Luck has already shown he had the ability. He just needs Manning and Brady to retire to be put in that category.
