The offensive line is still bad

Try as they might, it seems nothing the Indianapolis Colts do can solve their ongoing problems with the offensive line.  Not only do they continue to struggle generating any sort of forward motion in the running game, but they also allow too many hits on Andrew Luck.  As tough as the kid is, there’s going to come a time sooner or later where he gets hit the wrong way and it’s going to land him on the sideline with an injury.  Then they will really be in trouble.  It’s hard to say whether the front office or coaches can do anything about it beyond hoping for improvement.

Otherwise this could be the Achilles heel of a Super Bowl contender.
