What if Bruce Arians were coaching the Colts all this time.

I don't know... can he block?  I don't know how much of the problem is the coaching and how much of it is the general managing, and specifically, the failures to build a quality offensive line.

New England just played the #1 defense in the NFL with 5 active offensive linemen, including two rookies and a second-year player, and won. Indy's running a stupid offense for what they have. The talent acquisition has been bad, but so has the coaching.

I don't know if Arians would have them looking like world-beaters, but I think they'd be a lot better than with Pagano.

On further thought... never mind.

Per the footballoutsiders rankings, Indi has a better than average line; it is eighth in run blocking and 11th in pass blocking.  FWIW, New England has the top run blocking line, but a below-average pass blocking line.
