All of them were dual threat in college. There is a freaking highlight play of Luck getting into the open field and running over somebody.

Luck in the NFL

255 yards 5 TDs
377 yards 4 TDs
215 yards 2 TDs

That's running the ball brotha. If you are averaging 4.1, 4.3, and 6.0 ypc as a QB, you damn sure are a dual threat. Same with Wilson.


Well, yes, I said they were good runners. Alas, nearly every kid coming out of high school labeled "dual threat" is labeled as such because of a MUCH greater tendency to run. For the record, Andrew Luck was listed as Pro-Style coming out of High School

Wilson was labeled dual threat.

Now, let's be honest here. If you found out Luck was gimped a bit for the next month, you'd still expect big passing numbers from him.

Wilson? Take that dude's feet from him and he's maybe the 30th best QB in the league.

Yeah because of the system he is in.

LOL, That's a crock of shite. Also It's the way that offense is worked. Luck's offense is passing at its base, Seattle's is obviously running. Those two can't compare.

It's like comparing what KC runs to what NO or Denver runs. Luck is leading the league in pass attempts right now. He has passed over 150 more times than Wilson.


Also, WTF are you talking about? Wilson broke the QB efficiency record while he was in college. He also had 3 consecutive 3000 yard passing seasons. Threw for at least 28 TDs in 3 straight seasons as well.

If he was in a pass first system, he'd do fine. He also needs some decent WRs.
