Last year, the Colts sack rate was - are you ready for this - 11.5% (56 sacks in 487 attempts). Crazy.

What is surprising about that stat from last year is that it was ONLY 11.5%. I would have guessed higher.
The rate it is at now, through this half season, is about where it was when manning was at his peak. He would take about 20-25 sacks a year, 1-2 a game.
