So what will it take and how long? Buckner is on the last year of his deal. What do you do with him next year? If they add missing pieces in key areas, the division title is a very realistic goal. Once you get in and get a home game, a lot can happen. Look at the Lions. They missed the playoffs by one game just like we did and they were some bad coaching decisions away from being in the Super Bowl. It doesn't take 5 years to build a team anymore. Take advantage of AR's rookie deal and go for it. Now please know I'm not saying they WILL be that successful, but the mindset should not be to keep looking years down the road. Bring in some difference makers to get a different outcome 😊

Dude had 17 sacks last year. The window is open now. Look at what Cincinnati did in year 2 with Burrow (who got hurt and missed a bunch of time his rookie year). They're not as far off as you might think, especially if you fill the holes.

Go out and get Khalil Mack. Word is chargers are looking to move him. He would immediately be the best pass rusher on the team. Fill secondary with some veteran free agents. Draft Thomas from LSU, a CB and safety Calen Bullock from USC with the 1st 3 picks. I'd also look to see what we could get for Kwity. I'd move him for a 2, maybe even a 3. Too inconsistent. Extend Buckner and cut MAC to create more cap space.

Worked on this last week before burrow injury but here's our path to winning the South. Tried to keep it realistic. Pretty much needs to happen exactly as noted below so you know who to root for each week.

Headed to the game this weekend with my son. Any forum members going to be there? Got a good parking spot in Lot 1. Hoping to meet some fellow Colts fans for a tailgate.

If Steichen felt he was vital to what he wants to do, they’d have made him a priority.

I don’t think they have the Ryan cut factored in yet

Ryan Kelly is the first guy I’m cutting.

Couldn’t have said it better!

Grew up in Hammond (Bears country) but have loved the Colts since the Baltimore days. Received every Colts item from the Sears Christmas catalog every year. Bert Jones was my idol growing up. When they moved to Indy I was ecstatic that my team was only 2.5 hours away from me. Got season tickets in 1988 and have had them ever since. Got picked to represent the Colts at the 2018 draft in Dallas. I bleed blue until I die.
