Yeah and if my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle. The colts won that game and whether Kubiak's mini stroke played a part in that or not can be debated, even with Kubiak on the sidelines the Texans were an awful second half team. The colts are not as good a team without Reggie as they are with and that cannot be debated. But I believe Pep Hamilton and Luck will be able to get the offense back on track.
It's almost unanimous between NFL experts such as Steve Young that Luck is the better QB and no offense but personally I think his opinion carries slightly more weight than yours. If you just go on head to head record luck comes out ahead, and you said it yourself the Colts have no running game. If Luck played with Lynch & and the Seahawks line he would be in much better shape.
Also please don't put words in my mouth. I never dismissed the Rams as an easy win, or dismissed them. I never said they were a bad team.

Yeah being a top 10 franchise when you accomplished all the Colts did (in the meaningless season) has to hurt. With what they did they should have been at worst the undisputed #2 after New England. Instead they are behind at least New England, Pittsburgh, Baltimore and the Giants, and probably behind the Packers and Saints. I wouldn't be too thrilled with that when you put everything into context.
Steve Young, well, his opinion means the same as mine: jack####. The results matter. Lets see how it goes on the field. To date, Russell Wilson has put up better results than Andrew Luck, whether you like it or not. Does Andrew Luck have a higher ceiling? Sure, but potential is exactly that, potential. Remember when JaMarcus was going to be a superstar? Its true, many did. Results are what matters, and Russell Wilson is outperforming Andrew Luck. Russell Wilson doesn't have Reggie Wayne, and if he did his numbers would be even better. He has a bunch of #2 guys and guys who are always hurt. Hasn't effected him cause great QBs overcome those things. And the Colts do have a running game, just feed Donald Brown and cut Trent Richardson. Brown is averaging almost 6 yards a carry. Richardson is under 3.
