Manning Vs. Luck

Peyton vs. Andrew. The young superstar vs. the old legend who is still kickin' as if he were 25. So many questions surround whether or not it was a good decision for the Colts to dispose of Peyton and take Luck in the NFL draft. Over the past two years both quarterbacks have been very successful for their teams. The article claimed that the NFL world was trying to avoid "the inevitable questions and comparisons" that surround the two. OF course the media steamrolled right over that statement and drove the Colts owner into a statement that took a cheap shot at Peyton Manning. This of course will just add to the fuel of the fire when Peyton plays Indy this weekend. I believe the article was really trying to pull Andrew Luck out of Peyton Manning's shadow by providing clear cut evidence that Luck does have the opportunity to be as great as Peyton. The use of Logos or logical reasoning was certainly present in their argument. Statistics and records were just two examples of their supporting evidence they provided to try and remove Lucks image from behind Peyton. The Pathos Peyton uses when speaking about luck also supports the fact that he's not their to just replace the great Peyton Manning, he's there to be Andrew Luck, a new Superstar in the League. The praise appeals to our senses and brings out a emotional response fans can connect to because it shows that Peyton believes in Andew Luck.
