I think that today's playoff game is exposing Andrew Luck.
He is making mistakes... He is sliding instead of going in head first on runs..Shows lack of guts! He has thrown 3 picks so far!
As far as I am concerned , he has been exposed!
If he were on the Dolphins, our board would absolutely torch him!
And btw, aside from the last 2 games in which he played well...he has absolutely been horrible!
Blame it on his line or on the lack of running game!
Look at our line and our running game!
If I had my choice, I would prefer to have tannehill than luck...
I wonder who else agrees with me?

Well there is no question that Luck is a far better traditional pocket passer. Just no question about it.
Of course, I don't want to make certain people mad by suggesting that Tanny be taken OUT OF the traditional pocket passing scheme and only do it on rare occasions.
I hate all Football now. I'm not watching shit until April. I even secured OT on Superbowl Sunday. Going to police all the drunks. I'm done. Stick a Fork in my ass.
Taking into account he has no #1 WR and not much of a running game you could say he has gotten the max out of what he has to work with, which you could say is the same or less than tannehill. Thrown some nice deep balls, forced a few.
Luck doesnt suck, but he always throws a bunch of picks. If you keep throwing deep passes you get some tds and some ints. I would rather have Tanny than Luck. I already said he will be the beat out of his draft class and bringing in a good oc and gm will prove me right.
The Dbacks and receivers were the difference in today's game. The Patsies dbacks and receivers played like their mother's lives depended on every play. The Colts receivers and dbacks acted like they were out on an afternoon frolic.
The Pats Out Coached them. Belichick is uncanny and finding a teams weakness and exploiting it. The Pats definitely are playing way above their heads. They will get crushed by the Seahawks.
If you decide to throw risky passes into double and triple coverage, I question your decision making ability!
If that was Tannehill, he would of been ripped!
Bottom line is the patriots took the deep ball away from luck and forced him to throw shorter passes...
He decided to take more risks...and he got burned!
I did not see him use his legs and rush with the ball very often...
This game proved to me that luck is not at the same level as tannehill. In my humble opinion!

But he didn't show that reason in the most important game of his career, did he.
The Patriots had a much better team and Luck did make some mistakes from lack of maturity plus Bellicheat is a master at game planning. He must have known the Colts were particularly vulnerable to the run.

So was Elway. was he better then Dan Marino or did he just have better teams? Where you are picked means SQUAT.
It was a bad performance by Luck and he didn't have Tanny's excuse of an o line that was bound to collapse any moment. But you could see his skill on the long pass. AND in his defense, his receivers let him down on some occasions and on other occasions, the dbacks made masterful plays.
He was probably tricked and baited with special plays by the Patsies and their coaches DESIGNED to exploit his weaknesses and produce interceptions.
But again, lacking the mobility of a Kaepernick or Wilson or RGIII or Tannehill, his legs could not get him out of as many dilemmas.
He's a classic pocket QB but the best to come along since Brees and Manning.
