  1. My prediction is that we get a road game to open the season again.

    Most importantly, I want to play the Texans in the second half of the season.

    Texans in Indy in the final game again would be nice.

    They never win at our place.

  2. Home: Houston, Jacksonville, Tennessee, Denver, Oakland, Miami, St Louis, Seattle.

    Away: Houston, Jacksonville, Tennessee, San Diego, Kansas City, Cincinnati, San Fransisco, Arizona.

    With the fixtures for next season being announced in the spring, if you had your pick, who'd you fancy for the opening game?

    Personally, I'd take an opener at home against one of Jacksonville, Tennessee, Oakland or St Louis. Think we could get off to a good start against any of these four.

    Thoughts?

  3. I'm gonna go along the line of the Super Bowl host curse and say:

    Neither New York team makes the playoffs. Actually, throw Buffalo in there too, they won't make it either.

    Giants are in a tough NFC East, and I think they'll get lost in the shuffle. Redskins are doing well, Eagles'll be better, Cowboys are usually there or there about.

    As far as the Jets go, the way they're going at the moment...

    "And with the first pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, the New York Jets select..."

  4. Yeah, I noticed this a few years back. It was a Cowboys supporting mate of mine that told me about it, and I didn't believe him about it. Then the 2011 season happened.

    Safe to say, I believe in it now.

  5. Apart from the Colts, I have a soft spot for the Cowboys, Eagles, Packers, Vikings and Jets, as I've got good mates that support all of those teams.

    I also kinda like the Seahawks, not sure why.

    Got a lot of respect for the 49ers, Broncos, Giants and Steelers due to their history. Broncos due to Manning as well of course.

    I pretty much hate the rest of the AFC though. Particularly the Patriots.

  6. Well the team I support is Preston so they play in white mainly and a darker shade of navy blue but blue/white have always been favorite colors of mine. Oddly enough Everton is also a team I quite like, but more that's more the fact that Moyes went there after managing us.

    Always liked Preston as a club and wanted you lads to come up to the Premier League. Hopefully you will one day.

    That all blue helmet is awesome btw.

  7. Absolutely love the home, that and Peyton were what made me Colts fans (my soccer football team over here also are blue/white and it carried over), it's got a classic look you don't need to mess with. Well unless they Colts fancy pulling a New Coke type trick.

    Away is fine but nothing special. Like others have said a good clean look, but I'd like to see them play around with the pants colors a bit, that or offer out a alternative jersey just for fashion wear only.

    Similar situation for me. My English football team (Everton) also play in Blue (it's pretty much the exact same shade of Blue), so I've always favoured the home Blue. The away white is still pretty cool though.

  8. 1. SuperBowl XLI: it's the obvious choice, but until we win the Super Bowl again (MetLife?), it's the automatic number 1.

    2. CHUCKSTRONG game against the Packers: For two reasons: what it meant to us all as Colts fans, and the manner of the comeback. It launched our season this year.

    3. AFC Championship 2006 against the Patriots: finally getting to the Super Bowl, and doing it against that lot.

    4. AFC Championship 2009 against the Jets: I know a couple of Jets fans, and this one was personally very satisfying.

    5. The 14-point comeback in 4 minutes against the Lions: Defined the Colts in 2012. Just could not write us off, no matter what. Remember going absolutely mental when Avery ran in the winning TD.

  9. Everton supporter in Indy. At least we won't argue over American football.

    Also an Evertonian. My Dad was from Liverpool, which is why I'm a Blue.

    Going back on topic, Colts fan from Dundee, Scotland, and have been for a few years. Picked the Colts at random on a bet with my Dad, and started following them, then fell in love with the team. I know quite a few NFL fans, but I'm the only Colts fan I know.

  10. Giants: got a lot of respect for them because of Coughlin/Eli, the fact they're a traditional team, and the fact they seem to enjoy beating the Pats in the SuperBowl.

    Jets: tricky this as two good mates of mine are Jets fans...yet they're so hilariously awful as a team. They're tremendous comedy value.

    Bills: Don't really care unless they're playing Indy.
