What to expect from Andrew Luck next week vs Colts

[Brady_to_Moss]

Game of his life? Rookie mistakes?

I say 300+ with 2 TDs if i had to guess

 

[Danger Zone]

I'm having a hard time getting over my sour grapes about this kid.

The Colts after having declared themselves to be the Good to our Evil, shat ungratefully over Peyton, messed up their personnel to the degree that all of the Belichick draft haters should be standing in line kissing his rings and they tank a single seasons worth of games... and BAM they get rewarded for their incompetence with the next incarnation of Brady/Petyon.

Still... I suppose I should be grateful he's playing for the Colts and not the Jets.

Talib will be playing, thus Luck will be a rookie against the reincarnation of the 85 Bears D.

Luck is in trouble!

 

[ausbacker]

600 yards and 8 touchdowns.

In all seriousness, I have no idea. Luck has looked very good when I have seen him this season (mind you everyone looks great in highlights).

The Patriots have to shutdown Reggie Wayne. Luck will always look to go to Wayne first no matter what.

I think this is the worst possible week for him to play the Pats. I expect (and at least hope) that the defense looks vastly different once Talib is playing. It gives them more freedom to use man coverage, and also I think the ability to pull out some new, more aggressive blitzes. This should be a hard game for Luck to prepare for, because there's really no telling what he'll see.

 

[DefenseRules]

I expect him to do what every other QB has done to this defense all season.
PICK THEM APART. I just hope our offense brings their A game.

What do you predict his stats will be in the second half then ?

Luck is pretty nifty with his feet, so he can scramble pretty good.

Expect the Patriots to blitz and put him on his back a lot. The Colts have a terrible offensive line.

going against a pass rush that barley gets pressure

I DREAM about seeing some blitzing. I EXPECT to see the defensive equivalent of death by a million paper cuts.........again.

What is everybody's problem? The Patriots are tied for 16th for sacks by the defense and 5th in interceptions through 9 games.

The Patriots have more sacks than Pittsburgh, San Francisco and Baltimore.

Did fitz have all day to throw today? Yes he did as do most QBs that play us. We get sacks. But on plays that don't result in sacks...might as well get a chair back there for the QB

The problem is BB and Brady have spoiled pats fans. People expect the pats to win by double digits every week. It was the same exact overreaction just like last year. It's the NFL. Giants defense let up 31 points and got smoked by a team that lost 4 in a row. San Fran tied the rams at home. I'm happy the pats won today and Miami lost.

 

[patsfan-1982]

my guess is he will have 300+ yeards 3 TD's but he will have a INT or two that will lead to points for the pats, score will be 35-28 pats

300 yards 1 td and 1 int. He doesn't play as well on the road.

 

[Patriot Missile]

Id feel alot better if they moved to press coverage outright. I'm so tired of zone cover 1,2,3 I'm gonna throw up.

I expect Luck to suck if Talib is glued to Wayne and the front 7 can get pressure and actually cover Ballard and brown out of the backfield.

 

[TinhWoodhead]

same result as peyton's first game against the pats.

 

[neuronet]

Like every other rookie, our defense will make him look like a hall of famer. You don't have to be Andrew Luck for that.

 

[BradyBranch39]

Yeah, he'll put up big numbers. But will turn the ball over at least once.
