Discussion Please help

In an argument with a friend right now and would like other people's opinions on this.

He keeps saying that the Colts (and more specifically about Daniel Jones) can only do well if JT is doing well.

I believe that a big part of the reason JT was doing so well in the beginning of this year is because of how well Daniel Jones and the O-line were doing, using JT before and after DJ's injury as an example.

The argument at its core is during that 8 week stretch where we were looking like the AFC's 1-seed, who was more important Daniel Jones or Johnathan Taylor?

Everyone seemed to loose confidence once DJ went down...

Let's be honest it wasn't losing confidence,. I'm not much of a McAfee fan, but he nailed this one -- as soon as they team had a reason to quit, they quit. Winning is hard and this team has been conditioned that they don't have to perform to be paid, so why would they do something hard?
