My thoughts:
The Texans are trying different models, and are trying to do it right. They drafted a #1 pick, and then they traded for what they thought to be a rising veteran. They've been stable at the QB position even if not very successful. I think overall they're about average.
The Colts are a lesson in the power of one good pick, but they've actually gleaned pro bowls from several players, including Bert Jones and Jim Harbaugh. Luck is a decent pickup even I don't think he's the second coming of Sammy Baugh, and of course they had Johnny U. finishing up his career at the beginning of the 50-year period. It's easy to pick the winners, but we should note that for half of the last 50 years they've been suiting up some pretty weak talent at the QB position. It's hard to say that the Colts have been anything other than "Very Strong" just because of Manning and Unitas, though an argument could be made that they're only "somewhat strong" since they had a couple of decades of Jack Trudeau and Mike Pagel and others. I still voted "Very Strong".
