Indy' s front office is a joke. They have survived off of Manning and now Luck for decades. They cannot field a decent OL. Defense is terrible. And the trades they make are awful. It makes no sense how they have gotten so lucky.

Great QBs can cover a lot of mistakes. Bill Polian is a HOF finalist.

For how lucky they have gotten when it comes to sucking at times amazing QB prospects are around, the rest of the personnel are definitely underwhelming.

They were smart enough to suck for Luck. If Cleveland threw the season, they are Super Bowl contenders now.

Not at all.

WR corps - TY Hilton, Reggie Wayne, Nicks, Moncrief

TEs - Dwayne Allen and Fleener. (Allen is most underrated TE in NFL)

CBs - Vontae Davis, Greg Toler, and Darius Butler.

DL - Arthur Jones, Corey Redding, RJF

LBs - Dqwell Jackson, Jerrell Freeman, Erik Walden, Bjorn, Mathis

They need help at the OL, RB, and safety spots.

And they have Andrew Luck.

And it will get worse when luck isn't on a rookie deal anymore.

Yea I agree with that. But they def aren't bottom 5 in terms of players and talent.

And there are actually quite a few teams that have a lot of talent, but didn't have a winning record this year. Some just need a QB, some need a coach, some had injuries, some just had a bad year, etc.

Like the NY Giants roster, for example. Look at their healthy roster.

Eli, Rashad Jennings and Andre Williams, OBJ, RR, Larry Donnell. They have like 2 good OL, but struggle with the rest. If they can shore up the OL this offseason, they will be a lot better on O.

But the D is what's really stacked when healthy... JPP, Cullen Jenkins, Hankins, Kennard, McClain, DRC, Prince, Antrell Rolle, Stevie Brown, Quentin Demps, Jayron Hosley, etc.

They have a lot of good players, they were all hurt though. It happens. And it's curious to see what happens with JPP being a FA and all that.

Bradshaw and Nicks were both good cheap off season pickups

Nicks has played well lately but he has been very underwhelming this season
