I think that the opposite is true ...... I think that it is a minor miracle that Ryan has led the Colts to 5 non-losses (4 wins and a tie) when he has had decent blocking from the offensive line for only 2 games overall. Inexcusable turnovers are something that we saw last year, with Carson Wentz. Wentz had one of the best offensive lines in the NFL last year, and
lHEl often made bad situations worse. The same cannot be said of Ryan ...... Ryan has had the worst offensive line in the NFL blocking for him this season, and because of that, I would say that most of his turnovers were, at least somewhat, excusable.
So, I don't think that the equation is that the Colts would be 7-3 if Ryan had had less turnovers ...... I think the equation is that the Colts would be 7-3 if they had had even average blocking all season long, instead of the atrocious blocking which they have gotten for 8 out of the 10 games which they have played so far.
