Luck was healthy last year.
Obviously not this year.

To this year's version of Luck, he would be. Luck has been terrible this year. Period.

There are much larger problems in Indy than Pep. I believe I heard Pagano say something to the effect that Luck should be used to not having an offensive line by now when asked about the O line woes.
I think the problem is personnel, along with coaching staff.
Pagano: "Been the case for 3 years now, hasn't it not? Should be more than comfortable dealing with it"
Don't know how Pep got all the blame for that.

Not to mention the GM hasn't done a good job of fixing the O line.

This, I always roll my eyes at the dumbass fans that question his toughness or his character. Far too many people eat up what the media serves them up instead of actually paying attention to the on goings to form their own opinion. I am hard pressed to believe there are many other quarterbacks that would have survived the mental and physical beating Cutler has withstood in Chicago without losing their shit and/or throwing people under the bus.
As for the topic at hand, the Colts / Andrew Luck...I am supremely happy to see Colts fans eating shit right now. I have many friends that live in Indiana and particularly Indianapolis. They, just like the analysts and commentators, had anointed Andrew Luck as the next coming of Peyton Manning. Well, guess what? He isn't. I also find it insanely hilarious how they are crying about their offensive line, which is not playing up to snuff, but I actually had two friends claim that the Colts' offensive line has been worse than the Bears' offensive line in the last decade. I told them they were batshit crazy and should try watching something other than Colts football from time to time. Then they got real salty at me and started pulling out random stats like 60some odd variations of offensive linemen played on their line in the past years. I shut them up real fast when I said we have shuffled our offensive line more times than a card deck at a Vegas blackjack table and reminded them of the Giants game in which the offensive line gave up 9 sacks in half a game and got Cutler murdered with a concussion.

so let's see, having a fked up line gives a QB the excuse to be bad, unless of course the QB's initials are Jay Cutler.

No it does not. However, I've not seen one press conference where any Bears coach has stood up and said, "hey Cutler, you should be used to getting pounded by now!"
It's one thing for us fans to bring up the O line, but when a coach says that, it is acknowledging A) that the line stinks and B) don't expect us to do anything about it.
Once I see someone representing Halas Hall step forward and say what Pagano said, I'll then join in the Cutler discussions regarding O line, but it hasn't, nor should it ever happen.
Someone just threw a lit match into a dumpster down in Indy.......

I think the Oline has been a nice surprise this year. How many sacks did they allow last week?

How much does that have to do with ourQV's much improved pocket presence?

That does play a part in it...he's finally stepping up instead of backpedaling into a sack.

Incorrect. He would be back pedalling and throw off his back foot and throw an interception

The oline has been good enough to finally create a pocket to step up in. Funny stuff.

I remember last year when he'd run out of the pocket to back into a sack...that was so Trestman-like

Cutler used to get tackled for hella losses and fumble a lot, very much like Grossman. haven't seen that this year, except a couple early fumbles I think.
in other news, I found this article today and thought of this thread lol
