bounced back nicely after the pick, leading a good drive for a TD.


tough break on that last INT, by the way.

No pocket presence.

Tebow...
Inconsistent from week to week.
Bad decision making. Pick 6.
Major accuracy issues. Missed receivers short and on intermediate routes.
Threw the ball in the ground.
And finally.. clearly not good enough to be a starting QB in the NFL.

I'd trade half of this team for Luck right now.
Because of 1 preseason performance? And that's why you are not a GM

Hell no. Just bring in a running back who can run and catch out of the spread, 2 TE's and one RT and you are golden.

The rest of the team is fine.

These preseason threads about this guy is pointless. He's looking good against soft defenses but to his credit he's getting the job done. I'll hold my judgement after seeing him in live action.

The words "soft" and "Pittsburgh" don't even belong in the same sentence.

They better get the regular refs back, if that happened against the Jets I would be livid, not a TD

as if the regular refs are certain to catch that.

I have not noticed a drastic difference in the refs. The experienced ones are better, but not by a lot. There is a certain level of incompetence in officiating that is just part of the game now.

Remember the refs you're asking for are the same ones who refused to call any roughing the passer penalties on Sanchez despite him being illegally abused on a regular basis.

Andrew Luck was the best QB prospect for maybe 15 years. he was a #1 overall pick I don't see the point of Jets fans wishing they had Luck. It was never really a thing.

Wow, a little premature? 17-14 Colts at half. Luck: 15-23 175 yards 1 rushing TD and 2 INT. Not to mention that great drive with 40 seconds or something before half.

wish
Verb:
Feel or express a strong desire or hope for something that is not easily attainable; want something that cannot or probably will not happen.

we know that. we're just jealous of great qb play.

It's CAPTAIN CHECKDOWN !!!
That game really messed him up.

I don't think he's recovered mentally from that beating.

As a rookie...
Dude, it's the preseason... Lets not consider this as being some type of "nasty" Pittsburgh Steelers defense, especially considering the overall circumstances surrounding this practice. This is nothing more than a preseason practice. I can't even consider this an actual game. The Steelers play for postseasons and super bowls, not going all out and risking injury to a key defensive player during a friendly scrimmage in which means nothing. Preseason is designed to reduce injury come the regular season. These scrimmages are used in order to help these players gain a better feel for the overall speed of the game while coaches get a better feel for their younger players and offseason additions. That's preseason in a nutshell. In regards to the defensive play calling, let's not make it out to seem as if Dick LeBEau just attacked a rookie during a preseason practice with a "nasty" Steelers defensive scheme. It's been a watered down vanilla approach to say the least...

Rotoworld had to get another shot in, I see:

Andrew Luck completed 16-of-25 passes for 175 yards and two interceptions in the Colts' second preseason game Saturday night against the Steelers.

He also scored a goal-line touchdown on a quarterback keeper. Luck's final stat line is a poor indicator of how he played against Pittsburgh. He bounced back from a third-drive pick-six to Ike Taylor to lead three scoring drives, the first two ending in touchdowns and the third a field goal. Luck is already a top-15 NFL quarterback. Through two preseason games, he's quarterbacked 11 possessions and produced 38 points for the Colts. Meanwhile, the Jets as a team have had 23 offensive possessions in the preseason. They've scored nine points.
