Luck has helped the Indianapolis Colts blossom into one of the top offenses in the league, while wasting no time allowing fans in Indianapolis to transition past the days of Peyton Manning.
But just how good can Luck be?
According to former New York Giants head coach Jim Fassel, Luck will one day go down as the best quarterback to ever play the game.
“He’ll go down as the greatest quarterback of all time,” Fassel said on The Coaches Show Tuesday. “The numbers he has already put up as a young quarterback, far superior to anybody else that came in the league in their first four, five or six years the numbers he’s put up. If he keeps at that pace … Whoa!”
It would be nice to see Luck have some postseason success before throwing his name among the greatest ever, but he will have a chance to do that this weekend.
With a win over Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos on Sunday, Luck will lead the Colts to the AFC Championship game against either the New England Patriots or Baltimore Ravens. At that point, he would be just two wins away from hoisting the Lombardi Trophy and one step closer to living up to Fassel’s expectations.
