Newton took home the 2015 MVP award, in part, because of a weak supporting cast. It will be better this season with Kelvin Benjamin returning.

what is with this love affair with bruce arians

I thought the exact same thing when I saw that. Maybe they mean he is #1 at getting his ass kicked in the playoffs.

I think the WR will prove to be a lot higher THIS year but, as of now, that's fair.

RBs?  Fair unless and until CAP and Wegher step up.

OL? Fair if and until we upgrade at OT.

Coaching?  Everybody knows I'm not a huge fan of Mike Shula.  But, dammit, he coached what they've graded as 17th/16th/15th last year into the BEST offense in the NFL!  Give the man some damn RESPECT.  (Also, the OL and WR last year were coached up way over and above their talent levels.  Coaching 15th is a joke grade.)

32. Andrew Luck, Colts

Receivers: 24th
Running backs: 26th
Offensive line: 28th
Coaching: 26th

The Colts finally addressed the offensive line this offseason, but they’re still banking on rookies to protect Luck. The team’s best receiver (T.Y. Hilton) is 5-foot-9 and his main job is to run really fast in a straight line. The best player on the offense in 2015 is a 33-year-old running back. Indianapolis had four years to build around Luck before his cap hit shot up over $20 million, and it has failed miserably.

This is hilarious.  Oh the hypocrisy.

lmao and the title makes me want to poo too.  "andrew luck gets the least help in the league" when the colts have drafted weapon after weapon for him, hired his college OC, went on a skill position spending spree in free agency last year, and drafted his college roomie.

although the sentiment does kind of make me laugh because the colts were widely praised (incl. on this site) at the time for "surrounding him with weapons" when grigson went on his gore/johnson spending spree and drafted phillip dorsett.  of course their offensive line was a sieve and luck barely survived last season but who could have foreseen that amirite.

Friendly reminder:

Bruce Arians was fired as OC of the Steelers and has one exactly one playoff game while getting smacked in the playoffs (by us) both times he has made it.

He's a good coach, but Arizona having the number 1 staff is pretty laughable.

He has been fired seven or eight times if I recall correctly. At one point he even retired.

I don't get the fascination either.

What I don't understand is why our offense & Ron/Shula are ranked in the middle of the pack @ 15? Shouldn't they be in at the least the top 10? Sure, our passing offense isn't the greatest but our scoring & running offense is.

on top of that we also have some of the best position coaches in the game

i've always been somewhat wary of shula and rivera to a much lesser extent but he's easily a top ten coach in the NFL.
