With Andrew Luck now “legitimately questionable” for Sunday’s game, the Indianapolis Colts have no one to blame but themselves.
Quite frankly, it should have never come to this.
Yes, injuries are a part of the game, but Luck’s risk of injury has been heightened by an exorbitant amount of sacks and QB hits he’s taken this year and over the past 3 seasons in what’s been an alarming trend:
QB knockdowns (hits + sacks) 2012 leader – Andrew Luck (122) 2013 leader – Andrew Luck (115) 2014 leader – Andrew Luck (115)

It was really only a matter of time before Luck suffered a fairly serious injury behind the sieve that has become the Colts offensive line.
