    Literally every time the media talks about the AFC South, the first thing they mention is Andrew Luck. Why? He's a slightly above average QB in arguably the worst division in the NFL. Please explain this...

    He's gotten to feast on some really bad teams since he's been in the league. All in all though, he wins. But he has been overhyped since he came into the league.

    He was created by the ESPN hype machine. They literally started to refer to him as a future HoF during his rookie year. Add in the fact that they won the division (a terrible division) his 1st couple years and ESPN sees that as validation of their claims.

    Nevermind the fact that he has a sub-60% career completion percentage, OR the fact that he is 8-10 in his last 18 starts cause once the ESPN hype machine gets rolling, it is hard to stop it.

    i dunno, if you don't sit through a game watching the colts and hate andrew luck for how good he is you should find another sport.

    without luck, the colts would be a 2-4 win team. and that may be generous. any success the colts have is because of him. i dunno how many plays he's made solely by himself that make me want to scream. dude throws 20 yard darts with multiple lineman hanging on him. can beat corners to the edge. he just has an insane skill set. unfortunately for him he's spent his entire nfl career just trying to stay alive for every game except for those two against the titans every year when their line turns into the hogs

    Lol yeah people are ridiculously biased. Overhyped? Oh yeah. But he's not bad or even "average".

    I said from nearly day 1 that he'll be a pretty good QB. No more, no less.

    Reminds me of a slightly more consistent Joe Flacco, to be honest.
