The next NFL season is over three months away, but the Indianapolis Colts are already feeling the difference between the Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck eras - at least on the business end. NBC's ProFootballTalk is reporting that the Colts are struggling to sell as many season tickets as they did with Manning as the quarterback, resulting in a 3,000 ticket shortfall from last year.

The article also reports that the Colts have begun to hire ticket sales interns for the first time in 10 years to assist with making up the difference.
