Ranking every Indianapolis Colts team: Nos. 1-5, Peyton Manning's best

With sports going on hiatus, IndyStar is ranking every Indianapolis Colts team. The basis is pro-football-reference.com's simple rating system (SRS), which looks at margin of victory and strength of schedule. Subjective adjustments have been made.

5. 1995 Indianapolis Colts

This team is ranked 19th by pro-football-reference.com's Simple Rating System and that makes sense as 13 of its games were decided by one score or less (the Colts went 6-7 in those games).

But after drafting Peyton Manning, this may be the most important moment in Indianapolis Colts history. For that, it gets a subjective boost in these rankings.
