But this does show how valuable Peyton is to the team. He should win the MVP every year based on the definition of the award.

They have talent at skill positions, but outside of that not much
Mike Lombardi at NFL.com has really pushed this the last few months but the Colts talent around Manning is not very good, go look at their last 5 drafts, all 5 of them are at best a C-
Those elite skill players as well, let's say they are B+ players with Manning, with him gone they probly move down to B-
I think what this Manning injury is showing is that not only his talent but his mind for the game has glossed over what has been a very average Colts team the past few seasons
Freeney and Mathis are great, but pass rushers like that are at their best when you have a lead, the Colts aren't going to have many leads this year with Collins at QB
