.in terms of comparing the 2 qbs straight up, Luck now and Bradford last year, he's probably right.
Funny, I don't remember seeing Luck last year in the regular season. Probably because he's never taken an NFL snap. So in terms of comparing the 2 QB's straight up, there is no comparison because there is nothing to go off of Luck.
In terms of College careers? Bradford smokes Luck and it's not even close.
Again, the thing is, Bradford started from behind in terms of adapting to an NFL offense and Luck started ahead. Meanwhile, last year, due to factors beyond his control, Bradford also regressed in a lot of respects.
Now how you rate the 2 in comparison at this point is probably up in the air and 50/50 for objective experts, and a foregone conclusion for fans of each.
But the word on Luck was a rare, even eerie, sense of anticipation and a rare ability to read defenses for a college qb. I mean look at him...was he the first pick cause of over the top physical measurables or over the top instincts and intangibles?
It;s just no surprise someone is going to say something like King said, and, frankly, as Rams fan and Bradford fan, it doesn't bother me in the least. There's just nothing there to get bothered about.
And of course there are some objective folks who say they like Bradford's ceiling better than Luck and that they wouldn't swap Bradford for Luck. That doesn't surprise me either.
