True.
Statistically, Luck's season is pretty close to Tony Romo.
Romo is averaging 302 yards a game, with 20 TDs & 16 Ints.
Luck is averaging 292 yards a game, with 18 TDs & 18 Ints.
Both have had some nice 4th quarter moments this year.

Ironically, Griffin also has 18 TD passes like Luck does.
Russell Wilson only has 20 TD passes, and 9 ints.
Interestingly, Wilson has thrown 200 fewer passes than Andrew, but has 2 more touchdowns still. But Luck does have double the Ints, so Wilson has a long way to go there.

Honolulu stop and go traffic is great for texting and driving but awful for driving off cliffs. I hope you live in a great area for that though and can Spare some time to try that out.

This is pretty much what I compared Lucks season to. Romo is a good QB in my book and clutch as well. He has bone head moments that get his team in trouble but he always seems to bring them back. Luck does a lot of the same stuff and never quits trying.

The second part of his post I'll comment on now. Okay so RG3 is 25th in passing attempts and Luck is second. You said his team is asking him to do it all and didn't give him a crutch.

Are you taking into account the fact that RG3 broke the Rookie rushing record for QB's two weeks ago and has 24 TD's? He IS the redskins offense. Those are 700+ yards that he's added by to the team as well so when you factor in everything Luck Only averages like 37 +\- ypg than RG3 (not that much really) and RG3 has missed some time so the number would probably be a bit closer had he not.

I guess I don't get the crutch remark. His style offense should not be viewed in a negative way IMO.

I mean if your going to go that route then what about the advantage luck has playing in a Dome? He's a lot better at home than he is on the road where RG3 has been a much better traveler than Luck and has had to play in the elements much more. (some context for you guys since you love it and I'm a giver).

This is what is so mind-boggling about your posts. Nobody is even arguing about whether or not RGIII "IS" the Redskins offense, because he IS. It's just totally beside the point... because they both are.

Andrew Luck currently has 537 pass attempts, 49 rushing attempts and has been sacked 32 times. His other running backs combined for 307 rushing attempts. Counting sacks as pass attempts, that's 618 plays that depended directly on Luck to 307 that didn't, or 66.8% of the Colt's offense.

RGIII currently has 351 pass attempts, 112 rushes and has been sacked 28 times. His running backs have combined for 302 rushes. Again counting sacks as pass attempts, RGIII has had a total of 491 plays. Adding the plays Kirk Cousins has accounted for in brief injury relief, RGIII has accounted directly for 60.9% of his team's offense.

Those are 700+ yards that he's added by to the team as well so when you factor in everything Luck Only averages like 37 +\- ypg than RG3 (not that much really) and RG3 has missed some time so the number would probably be a bit closer had he not.

I like how you take Luck's having 37 ypg more than RGIII (which is a lot by the way) and conveniently make it a "+/-", as if you can actually do that. It's +37.

i think this thread has run it's course. it's either back and forth trash talking, or people asking everyone else to restate posts that've been made in abundance.

redskins fans, we're all stoked for you. rg3 is awesome. really. whether he wins oroty or luck does doesn't change that. take some deep breaths.
