More possessions.
He is doing it on 300 less attempts so the possessions and turnovers arent helping. The field position argument is prolly inaccurate if you looked up what each players avg starting field position is

You believe Wilson is the best player on his team?


Ahead of Earl Thomas, Sherman and Lynch?
Is there a doubt that Luck is the best player on the Colts?

I never said he's not good. I just have paid attention to both, and I've seen more from Luck, and his team isn't near as good.

Again, I think both will have long, great careers.

I think it's mainly the threat of the running game, though. Wilson burns teams on play action. I don't think that stat shows that Wilson is better than Luck, and I'm a huge Wilson supporter.

Not all of that but his defense constantly gives him better field position and in situations where the offense can be more balanced.


Edit: I'm not saying Wilson isn't really good, because he is. I do however, think its foolish to not think his teams outstanding defense has contributed to his success.

Indys average starting field position last year was the 21. Seattles was the 23. So can we get that crap out of here now?

Yeah that's not really a huge difference at all. Wonder how often Luck is playin from behind completed to Wilson. Also you gotta acknowledge Wilson has a much better running game.

The running game being balanced is the only argument that helps Lucks case. I will say this for Wilson though, his offensive line was one of the worst in the NFL last year

Seattles defense scoring doesnt count as TDs for Wilson

Do you read bro? It's actually 31 vs 27, not that it matters. Anyway, if you don't think having Seattle's running game vs Indy's running game helps Wilson throw more tds on less attempts, then there is no arguing with you on this subject.

I already said I agree with that. The other arguments have been false though

but it does count for overall score and playing with a lead where you dont have to do nothing but manage the game.

My point is though, if he is just managing the game, how does he have the same number of TD passes?
