So I was reading the player rankings on ESPN. Luck, of course, it ranked high at #19. I ventured to the comments section and saw the standard Wilson v. Luck debates happening (Wilson was ranked #26). And of course, the classic arguments were being presented for Luck when stats start becoming focal.
"Because Luck has a worse supporting cast all around"
"If luck doesnt make plays, they lose"
"Luck has no running game, no defense, no line"
Assuming we forgo the actual stats for each position group (and the fact that the Colts werent nearly as bad as people say at any position besides running back), we can allow these arguments to present themselves. But heres what I have been wondering...
...Do you think the rest of the team is getting tired of being told they are bad and Andrew Luck is the only good player on the team? After hearing for awhile all the pundits constantly belittling your accomplishments as your team reaches the Playoffs, and being told its only the savior that brought you there, you would think it would start to get to you.
I could see a huge splash of under-confidence happening and jealousy beginning to emerge from them. Theres just no way everyone on that team is happy about how they are portrayed.
