Anyone watching this Andrew Luck masterclass programme on SS1?

Fascinating stuff.

Completely compelling. It's reminiscent of when Sky do a good cricket one (Shane Warne's masterclass springs to mind)

Turned it on about 10 mins ago, brilliant.

Just confirms that Andrew Luck is a boss

And Neil Reyolds is about 10000 times better at his job than Nick Halling was.

The part where they were going through reading the defensive play was just fabulous.

"So, Coby goes for a seam, then we notice they're going cover two, so he cuts ten inside the nickel"

Obviously.

I am not an expert on American sports but Halling ruins everything for me.  His commentary on the boxing is filth.

I know the program comes on at midnight but what time will the 1st pick be made please ?

Obviously.

It's amazing there aren't more interceptions (or at the very least incompletions)

So much depends on the QB and WR deciding what the defense is doing a certain thing and reacting to that.

A misread by either and the whole play is fucked.

When a QB makes 80%+ completions it is absolutely remarkable.

Agreed. Especially when you have Watt or Suh bearing down on you to help you think.

What is the line for number of 1st round picks who will be in the starting line up for their team in the 1st match ?

[KarmaDope]

Is it wrong that I would love to have some sort of College Fantasy Football as well? Would help to get international fans to know the drafted players more bar the 1st round...

I haven't seen a line for this, but most will.

Quaterbacks and skill position players are sometimes given a little more time. Also successful teams from the previous season sometimes drafts reserves for top players who are nearing the end of their careers and might not start them immediately.

But from 32 picks, I'd estimate 25 will start game 1

Serious question

I like the sky coverage as i have mentioned before (probably because i no very little and i can follow it okish)

But is Kevin C ok tonight? seems very stuttery
