Overall team ratings are determined by...believe it or not...the overall talent on the teams' roster.

While the Colts have several superstars like Wayne, Clark, Manning, et al., they are not a tremendously deep team when it comes to overall talent, especially on defense.

Position for position, there are many teams in the league who have more talent than Indy (Dallas being one of them).

The problem with your thinking is that it ignores the fact that being the "most talented" team isn't the same thing as being "the best" team.

Dallas may not be a very good team, but it's hard to argue against the fact that they are a very talented team.
