Rick Reilly explains why he thinks that quarterback Andrew Luck is one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL. What is most impressive is that he is only in his second year in the league. While most Sophomore quarterbacks run into a "sophomore slump", Luck improves his stats from the year before. During practices, he uses words most players haven't even heard of before. His use of SAT style words comes from his 3.48 GPA in environmental engineering at Stanford University. Not only is Luck a great athlete, he also has a good head on his shoulders. Andrew Luck is compared to other sophomore quarterbacks, such as Russell Wilson and Robert Griffin III, and is leaving them in the dust. Andrew Luck is even called the "coolest nerd in America" by Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri. Reilly says that Luck is the best number one pick in the draft since Peyton Manning and claims he will receive the MVP award before any of his other fellow sophomore quarterbacks.
