The most important decision an NFL franchise will ever make is how it invests in the quarterback position.
A solution behind center defines whether a team can have sustained success or whether it continues to spin its wheels year after year.
The Indianapolis Colts serve as the best possible example. The organization benefited from two decades worth of stellar quarterback play from Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck.
The latter unexpectedly retired before the start of the 2019 campaign, though, and Indianapolis has spent each of the last four seasons with a different starter, going 29-24-1.
They're a mediocre franchise with one standout season, thanks to Philip Rivers' swan song.
