I think Luck has turned the corner on that. He is not hunting down defensive players that intercept him anymore. He's looking to throw first, not run. He's pulled up and thrown the ball instead of running into open field multiple times this year. He went out of bounds instead of pushing for a TD, told Reich he wanted the TD, and Reich told him "You did the right thing, I would've come out there and bodyslammed you if you'd done that." Reich is getting through to Luck and Luck is playing better for it.
I did not love the call, but a better throw from Brisset and we would be talking about this play way differently.
