Worst is San Fran at a whopping 12.02% (31 sacks in 258 attempts). When do we get to play them?

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

While some thought drafting Nelson was too high for a guard, this shows that he was well worth the pick. Kelly and Nelson were damn good picks in the 1st round. Finally have a running game to help Luck and it is great not seeing Luck getting the shit kicked out of him every game.
