Takes a Little Luck

With the Colts draft of Andrew Luck, the “Peyton Era” officially came to an end. Last week’s defeat of Peyton Manning’s Denver Broncos solidified this even further. Andrew Luck is officially the “new sheriff in town,” and while he can never completely replace #18, Luck has already established himself as a true professional both on and off the field. As only a second year quarterback, Luck has surpassed what many (including Colts fans) thought was possible on the field. More importantly, while off the field, Luck carries himself with a sense of humility and respect for those who came before him and compete against him. Luck does not attempt to make himself bigger than the game, which is often what highly touted athletes do these days. Instead, he simply goes about his business and truly seems to appreciate the opportunity he has been given. As Colts fans, we are extremely “Luck”y to replace one legend with someone who is sure to be another.
