Someone got a good shot of the back of my head... lol. That's me sitting in front of the cameraman.

1. Will the pass rush improve? - Yes, the pass rush will improve over last season. Mathis had a good season considering he was limited and didn't start til midway through the season. Like someone mentioned earlier, next year will probably be defense heavy for us in the draft.
2. Will the O-line improve? - In my opinion, it already has. Joe Philbin, a proven O-line guru, is running the show for the O-line. Ryan Kelly is our new center, unproven yet in the NFL, but I still have high hopes for him. There is competition on the right side of the line this offseason as well and hopefully Joe Philbin can make the right moves to shape the O-line accordingly.
3. Will the backfield hold up? - Yes, I believe so. Frank Gore should have a good year this year providing our O-line makes the right progress. Gore would have had 1000+ yards last year if it weren't for some penalties and costly fumbles early on. Plus, there is plenty of competition for depth this year too.
4. Will Luck bounce back? - Yes. a healthy Luck with a (hopefully) solid O-line and he will be right back on track.
Let the critics talk.

Just saw the Colts FB page post it as well. I wonder what the details are...
-
I'd like to see us not get blown out by Pittsburgh at home. I think that right there would be a success. Surely since Monachino came from that division he is use to playing against Big Ben and that crazy WR core.
-
Let them talk. Luck had a bad year and was injured in the process. Manning had some hard times in the beginning too. Dont forget Andrew Luck led the Colts to a victory against the then undefeated Broncos and their defense and they won the super bowl.
-
I loved what I saw out of Bray last season as a returner. We didn't get to see much out of him as a wide receiver though, which could in part be due to Luck's injuries. It'd be interesting to see how he performs with more snaps as a WR.
-
I don't see how we could go any less than 10-6 with a healthy and smarter Andrew Luck. We went 8-8 with musical qbs last season and competed with the top teams in the league (NE, Denver, Carolina) when Luck played.

Some say Trindon Holliday is still laying on the field at Lucas Oil.
I'd say that play and Pat recovering his own onside kick against the Texans are my favorite plays.

Only jersey I have other than Luck lol. Mcafee the GOAT
I have an Austin Collie jersey as well as those two. My McAfee jersey is signed and framed on the wall at my house.

I need to see the o-line work first, for a more accurate reading.
But my guestimationif the o-line, and d-line works the way it should:
Colts: 12-4
Texans: 9-7
Jags: 7-9
Titans 6-10
Flip the Texans and Jags then I agree with this. I'm not really sold on Osweiler yet.
-
Frank for 1000+ is obvious I think. He nearly got that last year and would have succeeded if it weren't for some costly penalties. It was close with that pick or Luck for 4500+ yards.
-
Kelly if I had to pick a single player, but I'm anxious to see how our O-line plays as a whole with the added players and Philbin as the O-Line coach.

Other than playing on a team with a great defense, how has Osweiler proven to be any better than Brian Hoyer?
That's my thinking too. I really don't think Osweiler is much of an upgrade over Hoyer. I'm not saying he will suck, but Osweiler still has a lot to prove even more now since he wont have Peyton Manning helping him on the sidelines anymore.
-
Texans will finish 3rd in division. Deandre Hopkins and Lamar Miller are the only proven offensive pieces on their team. I'm still not sold on Osweiler yet. It will be interesting to see him perform without Peyton Manning on the sidelines.

I'd say Philbin, Monachino and Kelly have been my favorite moves this offseason, and the departure of Greg Toler... lol.
-
Gore could have easily had 1000+ last year but penalties and some turnovers cost him that 1000 yard mark. I see no reason why he can't get over that this year with our, hopefully improved, O-line.

I have us going 10-6 and winning the Division. I am not really sure why so many people and even many Colts fans are down on our team. I am banking on Andrew staying healthy which I think he will. I kind of love being the underdog, less pressure on us if a lot of people think we will stink.
Don't worry, those bandwagon fans and ESPN/NFL analysts will be right back on the train midway through the season.

I can see this team going anywhere between 6-10 to 10-6 (Road games vs Raiders, Vikings, Jets, Broncos can be a real toss up but I went 8-8. Going to be tougher then we think)
The two toughest games, in my opinion will be the Steelers and Packers. Packers because we play them at GB and Pitt, well Pitt is always tough.
I see us going 4-2 or 5-1 in the division. I'm not sold on Osweiler, I personally don't think he is worth the money and isn't that big of an improvement over Bryan Hoyer simply because Osweiler wont have Manning's assistance on the sideline, and Jacksonville will probably give us a good run. Tennessee is well, Tennessee.
I think we have a good chance of going 12-4 to be honest.
The Lions will be a win especially without Megatron
We beat Denver last year and their best QB now is Mark Sanchez.
San Diego, well, apparently they have our number but I think that is a farce. They aren't New England.
The Bears, I think that will be a surprising game but we should still win.
The Chiefs are always tough.
The Jets will be tough at NY for sure, but I still think we can beat them.
Vikings and Raiders are really toss ups. Say what you want, but those teams are up and coming.

I needed a good laugh. 7-9 lol. k.

I like how when I click fan forum I only have to click it once to get to the forum index. Before, I would have to click a few other links to get to the forum index.

Okay. Forget the Brown's and Cowboys. Just name me the last 1st round centre to win a superbowl. I'm genuinely interested about the benefits of picking the best player in that position bring.
There's a lot of ifs and buts in that post. Saying that smith will improve and that our 35 year old pass rusher will make a difference is almost as speculative as hanging your hat on Holmes and Harrison!
Your point being? We needed a center to close the revolving door in the middle of our O-line. And we still have 5 picks to address everything else plus undrafted personnel. What round the center was picked/superbowl ratio is completely irrelevant.

I usually go to two home games a year. I went to the Texans and Saints game last year. It's definitely a different feeling leaving after they lost. I'm not sure I'll be able to go to any this year.

Anyone notice MeKale McKay making plays? I thought the kid looked real good out there from what I saw of him.
