At the same time, RG3's stats are really inflated due to the type of offense he's in. It's kind of a gimmick offense full of options and short passes and the QB numbers shouldn't be looked at the same as under a more traditional offense. He does get off some long bombs to open receivers, but most of his passes are really short and he really relies on YAC a lot from his receivers. I think he's been WAY more sheltered than Luck, and he's getting much better support from the players around him. It's been a baptism by fire for Luck, and he's handled it very well.
It's kind of a toss-up for me about their performance this year, but I'd take Luck moving forward without batting an eye.
