Not blown away by Baker

The majority of the media was slobbering over Baker Mayfield’s NFL preseason debut against the Giants where he threw for over 200 yards and 2 TD’s. Colin wasn’t as impressed as most.

He thought Mayfield looked fine, but he wasn’t wowed over his performance, and thinks that the bar for Mayfield should be higher because he was the #1 overall pick in the draft. he was more impressed with Tyrod Taylor, who led an impressive scoring drive against New York’s first team defense, than Mayfield.

 

Don’t forget how good Andrew Luck is when healthy

Andrew Luck looked good in his first action since misssing most of the last two seasons with a shoulder injury, and Colin thinks he’s ready to make an impressive comeback. He compared Luck’s career to Aerosmith, who were great initially, had a downturn, then returned to the top.

This time around, Luck has a better supporting cast, a better front office, and is healthy for the first time in years. It’s easy to forget how good Andrew Luck is because he’s been gone, but he looks primed for a big return.
