Bloody. Vagina.

Don't pay attention to mainstream media if you don't like what they're selling. There are other ways to get the news you want.

#1 overall pick. Highest rated prospect of all time. Already considered a HOF candidate.

Yup. Ignored. Have we already forgotten the Luck vs RGIII media bonanza?

Gimme a break. The dude is boring. You can only talk about the on-the-field product for so long.

That is Luck's real problem....

Besides sounding weird and being gross to look at.

No it's not. They just choose not to try to make him "interesting." The media made people believe that Lance Armstrong, Tiger Woods and Alex Rodriguez were good guys. They create and control the narrative.

Just like if the San Antonio Spurs played in Madison Square Garden, ESPN sure as shite wouldn't be calling them "boring." Mike Lupica would have written 17 books about them already.

The funny part is that it's self-inflicted.

I've said it elsewhere, but it's downright offensive that the media has talked more about him the last 5 days than they've talked about Andrew Luck the entire season.

And I don't even think it's hyperbole.


You take this shite pretty serious

I think Winston will be at least as interesting next year. They both have brought it on themselves but in different ways.

This was his first NFL start--he is just 22. Let's see what happens. He attracts fan and media interest and even if most fans want him to fail, Johnny Football provides the league with a marketable and exciting personality. He may become the player most of us love to hate.

First starts recent 1st round NFL QB's

Leinart 6/9 54 yds 0 TD 1 INT
Stafford 16/37 205 yds 0 TD 3 INT
Luck 23/45 309 yds 1 TD 3 INT
Griffin 19/26 320 yds 2 TD 0 INT
Geno Smith 24/38 256 yds 1 TD 1 INT
Newton 24/37 422 yds 2 TD 1 INT
Derek Carr 20/32 151 yds 2 TD 0 INT
Gabbert 12/21 139 1 TD 1 INT
Tannehill 20/36 319 yds 0 TD 3 INT
Manuel 18/27 150 yds 2 TD 0 INT
Dalton 10/15 81 yds 1 TD 0 INT
Wilson 18/34 151 1 TD 1 INT
Manziel 10/18 80 yds 0 TD 2 INT

So, all in all too small of a sample size, but not a great sign. Not by a landslide, but still clearly the worst performance among all of those listed above. Of course I did leave a lot of guys out, feel free to add those.
