The way they're built, it's all around Manning. Their D is built to just limit the score juuuuust enough so the offense's 21+ points is enough to win. Their running game is just to "keep the D honest".

When did the NFL go to a 15 game schedule? :p

I agree with the rest of your post though. The roster is built around Manning. No Manning = the Colts will look a lot different. If SS is right and this is the end of Manning's career there's no shame in walking away now. He's had an epic career, he's got a ring, he's a surefire first ballot HOFer, I mean there's nothing left to prove for him. Sure he won't beat Favre's records but that doesn't mean anything. And yes, the Colts do deserve a lot of flack for never preparing for life without Manning. They put all their money on him, and it's quite possible they'll get burned.
