Quote:If by historically Luck has been mediocre to bad by throwing for the most yards ever by anyone in their first 3 seasons, then yes, you are correct. Otherwise, no. Also, Luck has more wins in his rookie season, 11 compared to Bortles 6 in two seasons. Both had bad defenses, horrible O-lines, no run game and only a good receiving corps to rely on. So you explain why Luck wins and Bortles doesn't. Both teams play in the AFC South and play against each other's horrible defenses.

 

Historically he's averaged 20 TDs and 13 INTs when you exclude his one big statistical season. That's mediocre to bad, depending on who you ask. If his most recent season was his best one I could understand the argument that he's clearly only improving, but his most recent season was his worst, and he was playing like hot garbage BEFORE he had his injury problems.

 

Luck has had more wins, and the big reason for that is that he got to play the Gabbert led Jaguars and Locker led titans for years. I'm not saying Luck is terrible, I think he'll easily turn out to be at least the second best guy out of the four starting QBs currently in the AFCS, I'm just not convinced he's better than Bortles, especially considering Bortles was two years younger in 2015 than Luck was when Luck had his big season.

 

All of that said I expect you'll dismiss all of that because it's not what your emotional mind has decided it wants to hear and you'll get to work on rationalizing why I'm incorrect. I look forward to it.
