I think 7-9 is the floor and 11-5 is the ceiling. It sucked to lose that first game, but I liked what I saw from the offense, o-line etc as well as stretches from the D. I think the D was ranked 14th after week 1. I think putting together full games consistently will go a long ways. 2.5 quarters isn't going to cut it. Big game Sunday at Washington. I thought if they could start 2-3 or better they'd have a chance at 9 or 10 wins. @Eagles, vs Texans @Pats is a tough stretch. The stretch in November with 3 straight home games could be huge. It's week 1, I am not going to overreact so we'll see how the next few weeks go. This team always starts slow it seems. I believe they've won 1 season opener since Luck has been there. Hopefully that changes soon.

Luck will be fine. It's going to take him some time, but he'll be fine. He's most definitely not going to be afraid of getting hit either, I think we all know that. I am confident he'll get back to his original self if not better and prove everyone wrong. Only time will tell. The journey starts Sunday.

I'll say Colts win 23-17. I am not 100% confident in that prediction though. Luck's first game back, the o-line is shaky and the defense is shaky. It would be nice to actually win a hope opener though so lets hope for that!

didnt a defender call out Peyton Manning once many moons ago and Peyton proceeded to shred him the next time they met?
Probably multiple defenders lol.

I obviously think the division is going to be tough. The Texans have that good defense and Watson back, the Jags got a top 3 defense in the league and the Titans aren't a bad team. No easy divisional games anymore! I think I'd lead towards the Texans as long as Watson doesn't get injured or have a sophomore slump. The Jags D is great but Bortles lost all of his receivers and his line isn't the best so they'll lean on Fornette a lot. The Titans don't scare me as much, but there still a solid team. If Andrew Luck can be himself and stay healthy, the Colts have a chance in every game. The first 5 games are key though, toughest stretch of the season imo. If they can start 2-3 or better, they'll have a chance. I like the Colts flying under the radar. Should be a fun season!
-
Opening day can only be more exciting if the Colts get a win! I am going to the game so I hope it's a good one and I hope the Colts can actually start 1-0 this season!

I am glad they are both back! I hope they stay healthy and are out there week 1!

I read whoever wins, eliminates the Browns from playoff contention lol? I am glad football is back, even if it is pre season. The season is right around the corner!
-
Not many people are going to give the Colts any credit until they prove themselves. It starts with Andrew Luck imo. If he's able to be his old self and stay healthy, opinions will change, but until then most people are basing there predictions off Luck not being the same player or not being healthy. I think the Colts can get 9-11 wins this year with a healthy Luck.

Dumb on Toronto's part. Leonard will be a Laker next year now because he doesn't want to be in Toronto at all. Magic is loving this because now the Lakers can just sign him next summer and they give up nobody. Lakers are going to be unbeatable in 19-2020. Mike Greenberg reporting Leonard is very unhappy with this. That may even mess with Toronto's Chemistry? So they traded DeRozan who had 3 years left on his contract for a 1 year rental. Toronto's window is this year and after that they are done. This helps us out after this season. No way he re-signs with Toronto.
I don't think Kawhi knows what he wants lol. He's turning into a whiny little you know what! I read he has no desire to play with LeBron either, he wants to be the man. I am hearing LA Clippers which is ridiculous. I guess we'll see soon enough. If he doesn't commit long term to the Raptors (which he won't). They need to trade him right before the all star break. Dumb move by the Raptors. Great move by the Spurs though, send him East, get an all star, decent bench player and pick in return. DeRozan will fit well in SA. They made the playoffs without Kawhi last year and they'll make the playoffs again this year.

35 TD's 10 INT's 4400 yards, better, yet I am predicting he plays all 16 games!

I think all us Colts fans should have something to look forward too with Luck coming back. Here's a guy who went 8-7 in 2016 with a pretty serious shoulder injury. I am sure it'll take sometime for him to get back to his normal self, but I am confident he will. With a healthy Luck I can see the Colts going anywhere from 9-7 to 12-4. I understand there are question marks at multiple positions, but with a new coach, Luck back, a better o-line (hopefully) and flying under the radar (kind of like 2012), I can see the Colts making some noise.

I can't stand Rodney Harrison, probably my most disliked NFL Analyst. I don't pay attention to anything that comes out of his mouth.

I'm still here. I'll believe it when I see him do some things that look like a real QB.

Where are all the haters now? I am glad he's back throwing! He's going to be one of the most motivated players in the league this year!

The winning team should have the MVP. There is absolutely no way a player on the losing team who gets swept or loses in 5 should get MVP. Just my opinion. It's KD's to lose.

Here is a crazy off the wall idea...what if Lebron convinces PG and Chris Paul that they all take a little less money and head to LA? LA has an issue of moving Luol Dengs contract but what if they threw in one of Lonzo Ball, Kuzma, or Brandon Ingram?? Would that suddenly get some teams interested? With Deng off their books they could theoretically pay each close to 28-30 million depending on which player went out in the deal. With Paul and Lebron on your team that certainly would make Ball expendable...besides they have Josh Hart that didn't play half bad to back up Paul and limit his minutes. I would think you would want to surround Paul and Lebron with as many shooters as possible and Kuzma and Ingram qualify as that to say nothing of PG13. Then you could finish off the team with bigs that can defend the rim and rebound. I know Paul liked playing in Houston but what if Lebron pulled the same thing he did in Miami to get the 3 to join up in LA?? Magic would be smiling all the way to the bank.
Not out of the question for sure. All though I don't think CP3 would go to LA, I think he's staying in Houston. I agree with you though, wherever LeBron decides to go(or stay) he will make sure he has 1-2 other superstars to play with, just like he did with Miami in 2010 and Cleveland in 2014. LA might be a good bet, Houston could be(but it'd be really difficult money wise for the Rockets to pull it off) or the 76ers might be a good bet. If the Cavs could hypothetically trade Love, sign DeMarcus Cousins and trade the 8th pick with assets for a Kawai Leonard, maybe LeBron stays? He's going to make sure the proper pieces are there though.

Lets say the Warriors beat the Cavs in 5 or 6 or what ever it is, do you think LeBron stays in Cleveland? No way they beat the Warriors.
I think the Warriors win in 4 or 5 and I think LeBron is all but gone unless another all star agrees to come to the Cavs. I think he's Houston, 76ers or Lakers bound. If he goes to the Lakers, he isn't seeing the finals for a while. I think if he goes there, he's preparing for his career after Basketball. I'll say 35% Cavs, 50% Lakers, 10% Houston and 5% 76ers. He's going to make sure he's got a few other stars to play with, that's for sure. 8 straight finals is amazing, no matter how you look at it. This is the weakest team he's been on, but I hate the fact that he makes it to the Finals and he's all of a sudden the GOAT. I mean he beat a solid Pacers team with Oladipo(took 7), beat the Chokers(The Raptors) and beat a Boston team in 7 games without their two best players. Is it really that impressive? He should have been the favorite imo. Most vulnerable team he's had though, Pacers and Celtics both had chances for sure.

I think we are going to see Warriors/Celtics. Warriors will win Game 6 easily since CP3 is out and in a Game 7 he still may not be 100%. I think LeBron wins tonight with 35 Points/8 Assists/10 Boards + guys like Korver and Love will score in a double digits but in Game 7 I am rolling with Boston. Boston 10-0 at home and they will have more energy at home IMO.
Very possible. I see Lebron dropping at least 40 tonight, like you said and also like you said, his role players will knock down shots. I'll say Cavs 110 Celtics 95. Game 7 will be winner take all, which is scary for the Celtics even though they have home court, but if they can wear the Cavs out again, they should have a good chance to win. I can also see the Warriors winning the next 2.

Bet the Ranch on the 8 tonight? Cavs +3 refs? -7? Probably a pretty good bet!

I still think the Warriors will win in 7. I know teams that win Game 5 usually go on to win but this feels different for some reason. Rockets got every break in Games 4 and 5 down the stretch and now CP3 is gimpy. I doubt he plays in Game 6 from what Stephen A. is saying. The Rockets will put all their marbles into a Game 7 but they don't know how to win Championships like the Warriors do. This series is starting to remind of the Lakers/Kings in 2002. Kings were up 3-2 with HCA as well but LA knew how to win Championships, Kings didn't. People can say Game 6 was rigged but Game 7 definitely wasn't and the Kings still lost Game 7 at home because they couldn't make anything - they had the shakes. I can see the same thing happening here especially with CP3's health up in the air.
I completely agree. CP3 is out for game 6 too, that was announced a few hours ago. I would love to see Houston Boston Finals, it would be something different at least. I just don't want to see the Cavs win it lol.

I have little doubt the Warriors wont win Game 6. Game 7 not sure? CP3's health is huge.
I am with you, but if CP3 is good to go, the Rockets will be favored. The Warriors look like a shell of themselves. I am pulling for the Warriors, but I'd be more than ok with Rockets/Celtics Finals. I am nervous the Cavs will win the next 2 and if CP3 isn't 100% healthy I could see the Cavs matching up better with the Rockets.
