I honestly feel sorry for Luck's teammates. Their D has been decent the last couple years and they've always had solid weapons. The o-line takes a disproportionate amount of criticism.
People always blame every shortcoming on Luck's teammates. The dude is good, but he still has some pretty big flaws...obviously. He turn's it over too much (both INT's and fumbles), he holds the ball too long (which probably contributes to the turnovers), and he's been almost as bad as Dalton in the playoffs (where he's set records for turnovers).
Eventually people are going to have to shift their narratives with him. He's not elite yet. An elite QB would elevate his teammates anyway.
Just like people always blame Dalton for every shortcoming this team has. Some guys get a pass while others will be the scapegoat.
