Luck does more with less, and is the superior player.



I like both, and they will both have successful, long careers. However, Wilson is backed up by an all time great defense, and stud RB. Seattle is a stacked team, and he manages the team well. Luck carries his team, stats don't tell the whole story here.

Wilson is a stud and understands his role on the team perfectly. He isn't asked to put up gaudy stats but it seems like every time the team needs him to make a play he makes it.


It's very possible that if Wilson and Lucks' roles were reversed he would be doing equally well on the colts or even better.

That's the biggest myth that keeps being perpetuated despite evidence to the contrary - while Luck keeps getting put on a pedestal as the best in the game - despite evidence to the contrary.

Wilson accounted for 67 of the 80 yards on that final drive in OT to beat Manning and Co. Including two scrambles on 3rd down to extend the drive twice.

Only twice did they hand-off to Lynch. But go ahead and keep perpetuating the myth that Wilson simply hands-off and manages the game with dump-off passes.
