At least in terms of learning it.
I still think RG3 will have the better year as he is surrounded by a better team and the AFC South defenses Luck will be facing in division (Titans, Texans, and Jaguars) all ranked in the top 10 last year and that was after adjusting for strength of schedule. NFC East offenses weren't to bad but at the same time they're not great either.
I really think though that Luck vs Griffin is going to be the NFL's version of Bird vs Magin and Gretzky vs Lemieux.

I loved everything you said until you compared them to other sports with players that are actually on the field/court at the same time. Quarterbacks dont have rivalries with one another. Offensive Tackles/Defensive Ends, and Wideouts/Cornerbacks do.
