It is their starting QB rankings. It is obviously very subjective but it appears they believe the Colts took a big step up this off-season.

Matt Ryan is ranked 12th - just after Stafford and before Derek Carr.

Meanwhile Carson Wentz is ranked 27th.

Those ranking are based on their analytics. I think that’s where they should be. Wentz does a good job in the red zone. But between the 20’s drives die in his hands. Matt Ryan will bring most consistency and accuracy with maybe fewer big plays and probably more turnovers. But fewer 3 and outs means more touches for RBs and more rest for the defense. I think a lot of issues with the defense last year was the lack of rests between series.

I also think Ryan’s arm is still fine. I think this is a false narrative shared around casual media. All the local reporters say it’s fine.
