you need a better Line, WRS, RBs, TEs and defense. But if you want to trade him here and see how it is done let us know.

Can we start a Taylor excuse thread as well lol

 

 

Feel free. But be sure to show where Taylor was anointed the GOAT before he was even drafted, proceeded to perform at an average level in the regular season and horribly in the post season, played in the crappiest division in football history and still barely won and is somehow still considered on a path to being the GOAT.

These ought to be good. One of the worst divisions in the history of the NFL....NFL currently a league where "QB means everything".....and in 3rd place with 3 games left losing at home to a Watt-Less Texans team after a 4th and 1 choke job yet again.

 

I know it can't be Kim Jung QB's fault, so what do you think happened?

Why do you keep bringing back this thread? Every couple of weeks you post something out of the blue. We get it. You don't like Luck. Move on.

 

 

It is an experiment of sorts to see how many years this guy gets before people realize he is just decent, not great. The results have proven it since the beginning of his career. But because the press keeps the constant drumbeat up that he is one of the GOAT, people keep buying it. It looks like his excuse makers have run out of excuses.

Luck is one of a dozen actually competent NFL QBs now playing. In the right system, with a solid O line and quality skill players, he could be very effective. Indy is just one Luck injury from being totally useless and helpless. Their management has run that team into the ground. It's Luck who's kept it from collapse.

 

Luck is in his prime years, and will be an old QB by the time Indy rebuilds, if they ever do. It would be the decent thing for Indy to do to trade him to a team that has more parts in place. He has a huge contract so that's a problem, but the Bills should have cap space available if they were planning they might keep TT.

 

Dareus is a huge disappointment, and I'd trade him in a heartbeat for Luck. It was his selfishness that got him suspended, and then not in football shape so he got hurt. If we have to throw in a first OR a second as well, so be it. More than that, and I'd have to hesitate. If we could trade TT to a really desperate team and pick up a 3rd or 4th, and throw that in for Luck, I'd make the deal. TT might do OK in Indy actually, since scrambling when the pocket breaks down is his strength.

Luck, Brees, Rivers & Rodgers are proof positive the "all you need is a QB" mantra has set sail. All of their teams have major deficiencies defensively or in the run game. With the league skewing younger and younger, getting into shootouts weekly is not a sustainable model for success, the teams that have won over the last couple years protect the ball, run it down your throat (or in NE's case, have a short passing game that doubles as a running game) and turn you over defensively. Our defense is the real culprit this year, outside of the Baltimore game we've won every time we kept the opponent at 21 points or less and lost every time we've given up more points.
