I've seen those stat too. It's interesting that despite the yards being similar, Peyton has twice as many TDs. Luck was so good in the Red Zone in college, so it's interesting to see him struggle there, even though the rest of the game doesn't appear to present such a steep learning curve. A lot of that may have to do with the significant advantage our exceptional TEs have in the college game that is reduced when playing against NFL defenses. It's also strange seeing him throw the ball 40+ times a game. He has almost no running game with the Colts, and is carrying the offense (in addition to some receivers with good hands). It's very different than in college where often the best thing to do was to check into a running play at the line.
