In post 4, notscience wrote:I think Luck is probably the most overhyped Rookie, although he might be better in the future, he currently isn't.
I think Andrew Luck performed surprisingly well considering the fact that his team contains virtually no one of note to throw the ball to and his offensive line is essentially Anthony Castonzo and 4 traffic cones.

In post 17, notscience wrote:I find Boldin better simply because he's reliable to catch the ball. Torrey Smith has big plays, but Boldin was there when needed.

I just can't even begin to agree with that. I don't think there's a team in the league that, when asked the question "Would you rather have smith or boldin," would answer boldin. I also don't think theres a defensive coordinator in the league who would say they're rather game plan against Smith. Bolden is a dime a dozen kind of receiver. He's old, not fast. Purely a possession guy. Not really a threat in the redzone.

I think you're being silly.

I don't understand. Boldin didn't even have a good year last year...

Although, I'm extremely interested in seeing how Adrian Peterson, RG III, and Russel Wilson play this year. I think they all have great character and are tremendous athletes. I also agree that Luck is a little overrated, but is a lot better than his stats show (Wayne was a monster last year, but was his only legitimate weapon).
Do you support rape?
I don't get it.
Neither do I. You might as well ask notscience if he supports murder or Eagles fans if they support animal abuse.
I think all three are totally legitimate questions. Less so the first one you mention, because the Patriots immediately got rid of him because he's a scum bag. The steelers and eagles kept their scumbags, and these people are actively supporting them and helping to make them millionaires.

He supports evangelical organizations that are among the most homophobic and awful in the entire world, even going so far as to offer to speak at their churches. He's a homophobic jackass.

TBF the panthers problem is more a deficit of talent than anything else.

They like like a 5 win team. Whether or not they get 9-10 because the NFL is random as hell is another story.
