People like me? lol
Of course the QB gets an over sized amount of credit or blame for teams winning or losing but in this case this is the key player that a 2-14 team acquired which immediately turned into 22 wins over the next 2 seasons. Of course he doesn't make tackles on defense or kick FG's but to ignore the obvious huge positive impact that Luck has had is silly.
We aren't talking about winning a super bowl here. Marino set a million records and made the playoffs 10 times.
Want Luck stats?
His completion % went up 6% this year to 60.2%
He threw 23 TD's and 18 INT's as a rookie and this year threw 23 TD's and only 9 INT's.
His QB rating went from 76.5 as a rookie to 87.0 this year.
His sack totals went from 41 to 32
He has had 11 game winning drives and 8 4th quarter comebacks not counting the playoff game against KC.
He clearly is good and getting better
