Dang boys I'm impressed as all get out over this young fella. He has it all, brains, guts, skill, determination. I didn't really like forcing Peyton out, but it sure looks like Indy got one heck of a quarterback. Very impressive...
He is only gonna get better to. I also liked the interview, very grounded but yet confident..
Agree. He's looked good in both games to date. Impressed with how he rebounded from the pick 6.
In the interview re: pick 6, he said he "was ready to try to tackle the the guy that intercepted the pass". Never would have heard Peyton say that. Peyton would just run in front of the guy and try to slow him down till help got there.
I was glad to see he finally figured out who Reggie Wayne was. He'll do good remembering Wayne's hand are like fly paper. :-)
Good thoughts Bob. According to Collingsworth last night, Wayne is having a hard time with this new offense. Having to only run one offensive over all scheme his entire career this change has thrown him for a bit of a loop. This is his words on the deal per CC. They went on to say that Luck caught on very fast and can not only run it, but run the complicated hurry up now as well with the new wrinkles. That new back looked darn good to... Good moves and is a bruiser.
Colts are coming back or at least it seems..
Bob i dont recall Luck making the tackle?
Manning has always at least tried to tackle. Heck he did so sat night!!
Luck has a long, long way to go before he should be compared to Manning, even tackling.
The Colts are a pathetic organization and they will keep Luck from having the success that he is capable of.

Just going to enjoyable to see them have a shot, no matter what their record is, it's a rebuild year. The suspense is back. And thank god Keri Collins is gone.
I've thought all along that Luck was going to make a big splash, and so far it looks like he will....However, I never thought Cam Newton could making it as a passing QB in the NFL, and I was admittedly wrong....Quarterbacks can have all the hype or no hype coming out of college and make it the NFL...You can't expect Luck to be another Payton Manning....Even though I'm a Cowboys fan and always have been, Payton did things that I'm not sure anybody else could have done....He took an offense of so so's and made them elite...The Colts didn't have a defense the whole time he was there, and he was constantly having to make up for their ineptitude...Not to mention he did it all without an ounce of arrogance, cockiness, and was a role model to all the kids that looked up to him....You never heard his name in the media for negative things...Luck can be a great QB for the Colts for years to come, but they need to start from the ground up building a team
I like him. He carries himself well and can play. I like the prospect that kids will want to wear his jersey as opposed to a Vick or some other fool thug in the NFL.
Luck has everything needed to be one of the greatest.
I wish he had an organization to back him, the colts aint that org.

Speaking of Vick, you all see where he got knocked out on play 6 in his lastest game..... He's older now and can't take the beating on them hard plays now.......But who cares about Vick , when the Skins have got RGIII.....woooot

I have not seen him play yet. I watched him playing college ball and various spots on sportscenter. Looking forward to seeing him play for sure!

I absolutely agree with that. Redesigning the offense and defense from the ground up looks to be working. The offensive line I think looks strong in the first 2 games. Seeing Reggie Wayne work as a tight end and blocking is an example of some reinventing going on. The new guys on the defense do seem to be stepping up on the line, but the secondary still looks a little sketchy to me. I miss good ole Bobby Sanders, the flying demolition ball. He was the Colts version of a Steelers Troy Polamalu. I do think the Colts defensive line is standing up better than last year. And they have done a lot of changing from what they did last year, and it's showing.
Definitely a rebuild year, and it's going to be fun seeing what works and what doesn't. But totally agree, with Peyton gone, and the defense last year just plain weak, it was time to "send the team into the shop for a complete overhaul.
