Peyton's O-Line wasn't fantastic outside Saturday and Tarik Glenn. Peyton just never took hits. He either threw on time, threw it away, or fell down before he got hit.

He missed like 1 snap due to injury before his neck and I think that was a cut on his chin.

Luck is a completely different player who plays more like Big Ben. Where's everyone saying the Steelers are ruining him by letting him take hits?

Also the 1998-2010 Colts defenses were rarely fantastic. They good with a lead as they were built around Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis (yes, that's a fantastic idea). They could never stop the run.

The one other huge playmaker the Colts D had was Bob sanders who was fantastic and made of glass. When he played the defense was very good. When he didn't, it sucked.

I'm pretty sure Maurice Jones Drew gained 80% of his total career yards against the Peyton Colts.

Honestly, if they can find a few linebackers this year and Hooker recovers, the Luck Colts look to have a decent defense. Hard to find a Dwight freeney though.
