By 3000 you practically predict that Luck will be hurt again, otherwise no way he'll throw less than 3800-4000 yards. 3000 is a Tyrod Taylor's number nowadays.

 

I think I skip this prediction just yet, I feel it's too early. I'll save it for the preseason.

well in the OP post, he did say Luck WILL NOT be back in week 1 and did not give a prediction on when he thought he would be back.

10  cans of Guinness beer for me.

Hmmmm Luck will be back in week 1 but I still do not believe they can win enough games to make the playoffs. 

 

Wins : Bengals, Texans, Jags, Titans, Giants, Cowboys, Dolphins, Jets, Bills - 9 wins

Losses : Redskins, Eagles, Pats, Jags, Titans, Texans, Raiders - 7 losses

 

Unfortunately I do not think 9-7 will be good enough to make the playoffs in the AFC in 2018. Teams like Pittsburgh, Houston, Jax, Tennessee, New England, Bills, Denver, KC will be the teams in the playoff race this year. I think both wild card teams also come out of the AFC South. 

 

Div Winners - NE , Pitts, JAX, Den. 

Wild Cards - Hou, TN

 

Luck - 4300+ yards 28 TD's 13 INT's (in running for MVP)

Mack - 750 yards 8 TD's 

Hilton - 1200 Yards 9 TD's

 

Defensively 

Leonard - 105 Tackles 4 Sacks 2 INT's 3 FF 1 FR

Sheard - 58 tackles - 9 Sacks - 4 FF 1 FR

Hooker - 53 tackles - 8 INT's 2 TD's 3 FF

I’m nerves about our depth of interior defensive lineman. We mostly have 3-4 guys who don’t fit the 4-3 mold. Ballard has done a great job however getting depth and rotation guys on the offensive line, special teams and DE/LB. I’m making the prediction that Aluck is MVP next season. Ballard fixed on paper the glaring issue with our offense. Interior of the offensive line I’m in the “seeing is believing” boat though.

9-7 wildcard. Luck gets 31 TDS 13 picks is sack the less amount of time in his career. 

3 teams make the playoffs from the afc south.

I’m ready for the offensive line to prove you wrong! 

[Luck 4 president]

All I really want is our O line to be bottom 10 in sacks allowed, and for Luck to play a full season healthy.

[tvturner]

Luck - 33 TDs 8 INTs

Wilkins/Mack/Hines produce 1800 yards via rushing, receiving, and return yards

Top 10 OL

 

Hooker gets 6 INTs

Autry leads with 8 sacks

 

 

Offense ranks top 8

Defense top 20

Since the Draft is over and we pretty much have an idea what our Roster may look like. I will make a few early predictions:

-Luck will get back to being 100% healthy and start in Week 1. Playing the Bengals at home is a gift in the opener because that will even allow him to get some rust off against a bad team.

 

-Based on Luck playing 16 games which I predict, I think we go 9-7 and make the final WC spot. I think with the new atmosphere our players will play hard for Reich and 9 wins is realistic. Jags will probably win the Division and I see Texans around 9-7 too so that will be a fight until the end to who gets that final WC spot. I see Titans at 8-8.

 

-Luck will have a little rust but I see him throwing for 3600 Yards which isn't a Great amount but Good/respectable, and 30 TD's. He will have at least 3 TD's running as well = 33 TD's overall.

 

-Remember these are early predictions so a lot of this is a guess. No teams Roster have been 100% decided, when we get to 53 and the Pre-Season is over I may have different views.

We will beat one of the Super Bowl teams early in the season and be 4-1 after week 5

[sracolts84]

Colts go 10-6, earn a wild card spot, AND....win a playoff game! This is based on Andrew Luck being healthy of course. HORSEPOWER!!!

[HectorRoberts]

My prediction is luck will return this season but not be nearly as good as we expect him to be. I think it will take him most of this season or even the whole season to blow off all the cobwebs and get back to his original form.

 

i predict Mack will explode this season with 1200 yards behind this new o-line and Wilkins will be the #2 back

 

i think Cain will emerge late in this season as a true #2 wr.

 

In the end I think we will go 7-9, have 1 more strong draft, and take over the AFC in 2019

If we have the same starting oline all year and luck plays all games we win the super bowl. wishful thinking atleast

We finish in the top five in fewest sacks allowed. 

Luck holds on to the ball too long for that to happen.

[pacolts56]

With Luck all season....10-6 and a wild card.

 

Without Luck all or part of the season.... 7-8 wins and a draft pick in the teens.

I predict, barring injury, that all 11 draft picks make the original 53 as well as Skai Moore and Steve Ishmael.

 

I predict Mewhort will start the season on the PuP.

 

I predict that Hunt gets released/traded in favor of a younger player.

 

I predict Morrison gets released/traded in favor of a player who fits the scheme better.

 

Lastly, I predict Luck returns to form and runs the new offense efficiently enough to get the Colts 10 wins.

I hate to toot my own horn, but, outside of Simon being the lineman traded/released and Mewhort to Retired/Reserve instead of the PUP this is spot on INCLUDING the 10-6 record!
