This whole Manning injury thing will be an interesting test case for exactly how important a good QB is to a team. When Brady went down a few years ago the Pats didn't miss a beat, but they had a really good backup. Not exactly the case in Indy.

If Manning is out for the season, which is how it appears now, exactly how bad is Indy? 8-8? 6-10? Worse?

[Masters]

My guess is Indy is 6-10 or worse w/o Peyton.

[Crow]

That team basically is Peyton Manning.

4 wins for Indy this year.

Wouldn't it be something if Indy is so bad they get the #1 pick next year and draft Luck. That would be some serious luck to land what might be the best QB draft prospect since Peyton.

It would be legendary, but the Bengals and Panthers will make it hard for them to collect.
