Ballard loves big, fast WRs, and Alec Pierce was frequently referred to throughout the draft process as D.K. Metcalf lite.

The situations for Jones and Luck were completely different.

Jones was only sacked 18 times, Luck was sacked 41 times. Lucks offensive line was shit, This disastrous unit was a source for constant pressure, as no quarterback was hit or hurried more in 2012 than Luck. Luck took a team that had 2 wins to 11 wins. Luck had to do so much more his rookie season than Jones. Jones would have gotten destroyed by the offensive line the Colts had. Outside of Wayne, the other receivers were nothing to write home about.

Jones landed in a perfect spot for him, Luck did not.

Stats can be misleading as hell, one only has to look at Wentz to realize that.

Bill Russell, God bless his memory, seldom led the NBA in offensive stats. But he went 21-0 in winner take all games.

1 guy in 5 can make a huge difference. 1 guy in 11, its harder to do.

I know wrong forum but that 21-0, including 10-0 in seventh games, is about as impressive as it gets in team sports. In football it is 1 in 22, even harder.

That is why Luck was such a stud. He literally made chicken salad out of chicken shit.

What is the point? That Jones is equal or superior to Luck? That he was just as good as Luck as a rookie?

The point was that the OP who said "Mac Jones hasn't proven shit yet" was wrong. He's proven that he was a solid starting QB as a rookie and based on the careers of QBs with comparable rookie seasons, he's likely on a pretty good career trajectory.
