Quote:I gave insight. Did you not read where I said for three years he hasn't been accurate even when he has time?


Arob and Hilton would prob be a wash. Hurns and moncrief are both good but hurns drops a lot of passes. Then you have gore, fleener and other vets who are still good vs yeldon. Drob and jt are just coming back from injuries. D rob barely saw the field and jt looks rusty or sluggish.


Bortles has essentially played better than luck all season without jt and without drob. Beadles wasn't good before his foot, now he's worse, and we will see what happens there.


Point being is besides drops, no one is making excuses for Blake, but everyone and their mother is spewing out anything they can to make excuses for luck.


If you watch him play instead of act like a parrot you too would notice his bone headed mistakes, accuracy issues, wobblers, etc...

 

I agree completely with the fact that people are hard on Blake and take it easy on Luck. Both are good QB's. Luck plays on a team that was a perennial winner for years and thus has the respect of the national media. Blake plays on a team that has been the laughingstock of the league for years now, and given the mediocre/bad QB play since Brunell, he's obviously going to be critiqued more heavily. Luck also was highly touted coming out of college (as in, a can't miss prospect) and people don't like to be wrong. He'll get the benefit of the doubt until the media is finished with him and the next best thing comes along.

 

Luck also has been to an AFC Championship game. Even Trent Dilfer got street cred when he won a Super Bowl in Baltimore as a game manager. Playoff wins mean something. Again, not saying Luck is elite...just saying he's better than slightly average.
