Yeah the presence of Ben there on that list has made me completely ignore its validity
lol. Look at this schedule and tell me the Colts are going 8-8 or worse. Also, Andrew Luck will only miss at the most 2 games. He is 90% healthy but his injury is one he's been playing through since 2015 and Pagano and Ballard are cautious and rightfully so about putting him in in early season games in our easier stretch. The Colts defense was a key aspect of new GM Chris Ballard's first offseason. He obviously can't undo 4 years of Ryan Grigson's shitty drafting and FA decisions in one offseason but he did a great job infusing the unit with more youth and competition. It's not great but it's a great improvement in one offseason. Also, the offensive line issues are greatly over exaggerated. In the last 4-5 games of 2016 the line allowed Luck to be one of the least hit quarterbacks in the league which is a positive sign going forward even with Ryan Kelly's injury.
And with that being said, the Colts are NOT worse than the Broncos, Chargers, Ravens, or Bengals. Chiefs is debatable. Based on this schedule and our roster, I'd say we should go 11-5 or 10-6 which should snag one of the 2 wild card spots. I think Houston wins the division by a game only because of Luck's injury though.
1) We're against the Rams...As bad as Scott Tolzien is, he can win that game and then Jacoby can start until Luck is ready but Luck should be ready for Week 2 to be honest.
2) I know we have Jaguars fans in here that will beat me up for saying this, but there's no way the Colts are worse than them. The Jags always have hype but they can't seem to ever produce anything resembling a productive football team because of their quarterback situation and bad offensive line and they think spending big in free agency helps. Colts, Texans, and Titans will fight for the division and the Jags will be lucky to have 6 wins unless I can be proven wrong for once regarding their offense.
Im a steelers fan too bro lol, and as someone whos watched every minute of every game this season ive just lost my trust in ben completely. Bring on Cousins or someone come next season
It's actually just the universe balancing out your lost 2008 season.I wonder what it feels like to have your favorite team's legendary QB decline due to age
Well, the last two old legendary QBs that my team had retired with rings in their last years.I wonder what it feels like to have your favorite team's legendary QB decline due to age

And then proceeded to play Haleyball for the remainder of the half despite two interceptions deep in Tennessee territory -_-That nice sky cam view.
And Pittsburgh sure opened up as nice as possible.
And then proceeded to run Brown down their throats lolAnd then proceeded to play Haleyball for the remainder of the half despite two interceptions deep in Tennessee territory -_-
Imagine being in playoff contention for the first time in like 20 years and deciding to start a thing named Nathan Peterman over actually pretty good quarterback Tyrod Taylor
