I saw a mock draft for next year that had the Colts drafting second.  The thought intrigued me to tank for another good draft pick, but it passed.  We're bad and trending poorly, but we're only 2 games out of first place in our division.  Let's smash those Jets today.

Lol why tank for a pick when we will waste it anyway

I wouldn't complain about a high pick, but my fear is the Colts will draft another offensive lineman.

The Colts are so hard to watch. Just complete trash for WRs

[BGVille Hoosierfan 3,004]

We don't deserve Luck at all...team around him is trash. Thank Grigson/Irsay for that.

I'm just looking forward to deep pockets this off-season accompanied by a top 5 draft pick.

But they can mess that up too.

Man Luck is good for at least 1 TERRIBLE throw a week. He's so good but he just can't help himself. That 3rd pick was brutal.

Congratulations Luck on your 7th career 3 interception game!  Keep it up, you'll set the all time record.

You need help. Of course you find some way to take a jab at Luck, who cares that the first interception was nothing to do with him, second one wasn't a bad throw either. but keep hating

I didn't make that stat up, and it wasn't hard to find.  You don't like it but it's relevant, and it's not "hating"

Yes it is You looked it up and posted it because you hate Luck. You've always hated Luck and tend to your agenda at every available opportunity. Its ******* annoying

I didn't look it up, they posted it on the TV screen after that awful interception that killed our chances.  Sorry it interferes with your unquestioned hero worship.

I don't think he "hates" him, I think he just gets off on being a contrarian and the attention that comes with it.

The attention of anger and name calling in response?  Lol, no.  I do find it weird that some of you have hero worship mode turned up so high that you get irritated at facts that don't fit your narratives.  Andrew Luck has had turnover issues for his whole career.

Yet you ignore the fact that Luck is called upon to win games for a team that has had a terrible defense and less than adequate weapons on offense. TY Hilton, his best weapon should be a slot receiver. A beyond terrible O-line that is finally improving. Never an impact making running back.

Luck isn’t a hero. He isn’t the best QB in the league. But he is for sure top 8.

Manning was top 5 All time. At least he had great offensive weapons to go with a terrible defense.


What Luck is asked to do is insane. Other teams know we can’t run the ball. Our defense isn’t good enough to shut teams down.

So we end up in situations where Luck has to throw the ball 50 times a game when the defense knows it’s coming.

When a QB has no real help, he feels like he has to do it all and make plays he otherwise might not.  Two of Luck's INT's today were not on him.  He's had problems his entire career, but the fact still remains his stats through his first 5 seasons are among the best in NFL history....with VERY little help.  TY Hilton is a complete diva who has been incredibly inconsistent.  Other than TY, name another even average receiver.

I'm not an apologist. He's made some really bad throws/decisions, but when a QB feels alone, he feels like he needs to play hero.  Therefore, I'm more willing than some to forgive days like today.   Hell, his first two throws were blatant drops; and Rogers, who is supposedly the #1 right now has had this issue his entire career.

I'm not ignoring it.  I agree with most of it.  It doesn't excuse all his turnovers, but I agree with it.

Actually it does. The fact that we do not have high end receivers but instead have average guys who bobble the easy pass such that the D returns it for a touchdown absolutely is a valid excuse.

There are a lot of even headed responses that while they support Luck don’t get close to hero worship.

Luck is asked to do way to much. The Colts are junk. That said, Im not sure he is an elite QB. Expectations were too high after Manning.

It’s hard to tell I’m not sure I have ever see. The same QB surrounded with terrible talent for so long. 

[Brass Cannon 25,571]

Man every time I try to watch football it’s the same ole rerun. Refs help the Pats with suspect penalties.
