With the perfect team Ryan could lead us, but then again so could maybe half the quarterbacks in the league given a great surrounding cast.

Well, how about the reverse of your hypothesis ...... how many starting quarterbacks in the NFL right now could succeed with this offensive line ???
How many quarterbacks in the NFL right now would find a way to lead this team to a winning record when the defensive front is in their face less than 2 seconds after the ball is snapped, as it has been for a good portion of this season ???
Also, I don't think that Ryan needs a "perfect" team to be successful ...... if the offensive line were even average, the Colts would likely be at least 7-5 right now, and with a good offensive line (about 7th or 8th in the league out of 32 teams) they would likely be 8-4 or 9-3. Last year, the Colts were 9-6 after 15 games with Carson Wentz at quarterback with an offensive line that was the antithesis of what Matt Ryan and Sam Ehlinger have had this season.
