The Indianapolis Colts announced that starting QB Andrew Luck has a lacerated spleen, and should be out for at least two weeks.

While the Atlanta Falcons are playing poorly, they sure have lucked out with their opponents. Atlanta has a bye week to figure out their problems before they play the Colts in Atlanta. Professional 40 year-old Matt Hasselback is expected to be the starting quarterback. As you would imagine, Hasselback will be limited to a game manager role.

If the Falcons want to slowly get back on track, playing against the Colts without Andrew Luck is a great start.
