Posted something about our LT's in another thread. With the exception of 1996 - 99, we have had four starting LT's: Jacoby, Lachey, Samuels, and now Trent. That is some serious stability of high level quality at the position over 35 years.
In comparison here is Luck's O-Line issues:

The continuity the Colts crave on the line – that pride Irsay was talking about – continues to elude them. It’s the NFL’s longest-running game of musical chairs: Only once in Luck’s career (60 games) has he had the same offensive line in front of him for more than three consecutive weeks. Since his rookie year in 2012, Luck has had nine left guards, six centers, eight right guards, eight right tackles and one left tackle.

Is the Colts offensive line getting better? Or worse?
No fan of Luck so not making any excuses for him but, of the position groups, it's on the O-Line where continuity counts the most.
