Guys are coming into the league now much more prepared for the NFL than in the past. Last year there were two rookie QBs in the Pro Bowl, and Luck is way more prepared to play in this league than either of those guys were.

But maybe the Luck hype is crazy. We'll see.

And remember how god awful Cam looked in that Pro Bowl, threw more than a couple of picks

True, you can say anything you want, but it's only a guess at this point and that's all it is. Maybe you will get Lucky.

Let me put it this way, assuming you would want the Falcons to have the best QB possible (and why would you want anything else), if Luck is already better than Ryan, you would support an even swap, you would rather have Luck as the QB for the Falcons than Ryan this season?

I love Matt Ryan but wouldn't think twice about making that trade. Luck, with these weapons...wow....that would be something.

Ok, but I think you are underestimating the value of experience. Luck may turn out to be great, but he's gonna have his struggles just like anyone else.

Experience is great but it didn't help the Falcons score any points against the Giants in the playoffs.

I hope I look back and say at the end of this season, "I was wrong, I wouldn't trade anybody for Matt Ryan", but thus far, his experience, and he has plenty of it by now, hasn't done him much good when it matters most.

How many points did Luck score vs. the Giants in the playoffs?

P.s. Luck lost his bowl game last year, so umm yeah that is a post season loss

Someone needs to get off Andrew Luck's ball sack.

Good point. He was terrible in that game too. 27 out of 31 for 347 yards, 2 TDs and an INT, and Stanford lost because his kicker hooked two chip shots....one for the win and another that would have kept overtime going.

But I suppose you have a point.
