You say that as though the addition of Andrew Luck to the worst team in the league doesn't have anything to do with the fact that they're now 6-4. If it's not Luck, who's doing it in Indy? Reggie Wayne? No, he was there last year. Some mediocre running back? Their defense? No, no, no. It's Luck. Don't be ridiculous.

W/O him I doubt the win a single game.

Sort of like the Colts last year?

He's been throwing to nothing at WR, has turned a 6th round RB into a stud rusher

Behold!

because teams are so focused on him and has kept his team in games that they should have never been in. And just as a caveat, he's very efficient and that could be why he doesn't need to throw as much. I mean how can anyone logically say that Luck is more important to his team than RG3?

ahem: Andrew Luck is a better passer than Robert Griffin, and his coaching staff places more responsibility on him when it comes to the passing game. Robert Griffin has been better in fantasy football, but is more of a one-man highlight reel than someone who improves the play of his teammates. When you combine that with the fact that some of his running has gotten him injured and thus unavailable to play, and that Andrew Luck has 5 rushing touchdowns on his own, you have a logical argument for Luck having a more impressive rookie year. Everyone knows Robert Griffin can make a defender look bad in the open field and throw it deep. Andrew Luck is valuable in every aspect of the game and doesn't make his teammates play to his strengths, because he's good enough to play to theirs.

If anything it's a wash. And to dock RG3 because of his offensive scheme is ********. All he can do is execute the plays called

You don't think RGIII's various skills and, importantly, limitations affect which plays are called? You don't think that plays into evaluating him as a player?
Quote:
and he's done that much more efficiently than Luck has. I mean Luck is in the same type of offense he was in college so why hasn't he been better at it?

Because... this is the NFL?
