I believe that this team would have gone 13-4 with a prime Peyton Manning at quarterback.
I believe that they would have gone 12-5 with Patrick Mahomes at quarterback.
I believe that they would have gone 11-6 with Josh Allen at quarterback.
I believe that they would have gone 10-7 with a very good (but not great) quarterback.
If a prime Peyton Manning were the quarterback, I believe that the Colts would have beaten the Vikings by at least 12 points with the way that the Colts' defense played in that game (it was one of their better ones.)
Then there were games when the offense played well, but the defense was terrible (the first Jaguars game, and the Giants game.)
I think that Manning would have found a way to beat the Texans twice, also.
