Analysis: The Colts defense shouldn't be on your fantasy radar in the first place, but they can't be happy about losing on of the few bright spots on a unit that ranked 29th in the league in rushing yards allowed and 25th in total yards. Angerer's injury is a big blow to a linebacker corp that was already struggling with depth (earlier today they also lost LB Scott Lutra for the year with a torn ACL). Andrew Luck is all the rage in Indy these days, but today's news is a stark reminder that they have a long, hard climb back to relevancy.
