Regardless of line, defense, running game, etc. QB play is vital to winning.

Point taken about the QB position being vital, and I also agree that we need to move on from Ryan in 2023 and beyond ...... but unlike Philip Rivers in 2020 and Carson Wentz in 2021, Ryan flat-out didn't have a chance with this offensive line. I don't think that there are 5 quarterbacks in the NFL that would have a chance to lead this team to a winning record with way that this offensive line has played. We need to move on from Ryan, but outside of the the super-quick/Houdini-like Patrick Mahomes and maybe one or 2 others, teams just can't win when they have one of the worst (and maybe THE worst) offensive line in the league.

The Colts can and should address both areas (QB and offensive line) in the off-season, but I would say that the offensive line is always of utmost importance considering that most average-to-above average quarterbacks can play well with very good offensive lines, but very few quarterbacks can play well with a horrible offensive line.
