Really kind of sad not having the Pats on the schedule, except for 2002 they have played every year since 1970.

Meh on the Pats..it's a new era.  We will forge new rivalries.

 

Glad that we got the Seattle game at home.  Peyton's homecoming game will be a doozy.  Still looks like a pretty formidable schedule though...Colts look to be facing some legit offenses next season.  Grigs better get that defense ready over the off season.

Yeah, spend that cap money on some horses to protect Luck!

I think we have a pretty good schedule from having the second best record in our division. Can't wait for the Denver game.

Unless the Broncos or Colts win the Super Bowl I don't think you will have to wait long that has Sunday Night Opener written all over it.  Heck even if we win they might do that for the season opener.

Honestly, after spotting an orange #18 in the stands on tv today (and what came out of my mouth afterwards , I think I'll need a few years before I can visit Indy for another game... zoinks.

One fan does not equal the fanbase.  I am sure he wasn't the only one there in a Broncos jersey but frankly Luck and the story with Pagano has gone a long way towards helping this fanbase heal over the whole Manning thing.  With that said should the Colts play Denver in the second round the of playoffs I could see a civil war of sorts being started.  Although I think the Colts just getting the game with the Broncos out of the way wouldn't be a bad thing.  Even if the Colts lose badly to them in the playoffs it will be extremely hard to be mad at the Colts after this season.  It also lets the players get the circus that is going to come with playing Peyton Manning for the first time out of the way.

I know a family of Colts fans who live in San Diego and they are going to be psyched the Colts are coming to town.  May need to invite myself out there and catch that one.

 

Would also like to go to the Denver game in Indy.  Maybe I'll do a garage sale to work up some funds for tickets.  How much will I need?  Million or two.

 

Peyton returns to the house Peyton built.  TV will be all over that.

    • Rick Venturi today on the radio said he is more of a fan of speed with corners then what Ballard has done. He said young corners have to be able to recover from mistakes. I would almost like rodgers instead of Brent’s.
    • BBZ, what do you mean when you say Brents will be successfully targeted because of his size and speed? Aren't those his good traits? 
    • Right. But we also are expected to draft a corner, So the fact that DeJean can play either position, makes me think Ballard could have his eye on him.
    • As a Ballard type player, he seems to fit the bill.  Big 10. Excels at zone coverage. Elite athlete. Special Teams standout, Good tackler. etc. Colts may be able to trade back, and still land DeJean   Considered one of the Safest picks. Seven 2024 NFL Draft Prospects Who Are Safest Bets to Succeed at Next Level https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10113875-7-2024-nfl-draft-prospects-who-are-safest-bets-to-succeed-at-next-level   DB Cooper DeJean, Iowa   A fractured fibula during a November practice tempered any excitement regarding Cooper DeJean's draft status. So he's not been in the same conversations as the class' top defensive backs, specifically Toledo's Quinyon Mitchell and Alabama's Terrion Arnold. DeJean's profile projects just as well or better than the aforementioned cornerbacks.   Three specific attributes set DeJean's floor higher than anyone else among the back end.   First, the reigning Big Ten Defensive Back of the Year presents the positional flexibility and traits to start at cornerback or safety at the professional level, with B/R's Cory Giddings highlighting his coverage skills:   "DeJean excels in zone coverage, but he's versatile enough to play man as well. He shows a smooth backpedal and the ability to keep his leverage and quick footwork with few wasted steps. Although he transitions well, there are times where DeJean hops into his breaks; allowing a step of separation.   "When in zone, DeJean does a great job of reading and reacting to the quarterback's eyes. Pairing that skill set with his route recognition, he often puts himself in good position with leverage and positioning.   "While working downfield, DeJean has the strength necessary to hand-fight with tight ends and bigger receivers, as well as the speed necessary to carry twitchier receivers downfield. He also does a very good job of locating the ball and playing through the catch point."   Second, the high school track standout is an elite athlete who captured Iowa state titles in the long jump and 100-meter dash. Many expected him to blow the doors off Lucas Oil Stadium. Unfortunately, he wasn't ready to test in Indianapolis after being cleared a few weeks earlier.   "His acceleration is incredibly fluid and super powerful," NFL combine trainer Jordan Luallen told The Athletic's Bruce Feldman last summer. "He's the best athlete I've seen in person, pound for pound."   Finally, DeJean adds significant value as an elite collegiate returner. Big Ten coaches also awarded him Return Specialist of the Year this past season. DeJean averaged 13.1 yards per punt return over the last two seasons. A top-notch contributor anywhere along the defensive backfield and on special teams will provide excellent value in the NFL.   Potential Landing Spots: Indianapolis Colts, Philadelphia Eagles    
    • He could, but I think he's way more athletic than people give him credit for and projects way better as CB. Definitely could be a good safety, but I think if we drafted him, he fits well as a boundary corner for us.
