  1. At the beginning of the season everyone said the redskins had a much better team than us, it's strange how griffin is getting all the hype with his team at 5-6 and were 7-4, I think our QB has alot to do with us having that record, and yet griffin get's all the accolades, while his team has a losing record. Well so much for stats, I'll take our QB any day of the week because he knows how to win games, which I think is a little more important than stats!

  2. DETROIT- A very nasty team who is not a reflection of their record. They are very physical and nasty on defense. To me, they will play us hard and I expect a low scoring, defense oriented game with a lot of penalties and will come down to whoever can score last in the 4th quarter. I think we win this one 23-13

    TITANS- We win this one convincingly, 31-16

    TEXANS- We split them

    KANSAS CITY- Our hardest game! They are down and out and will be playing just to ruin our day and record. We win this game by a field goal in the 4th quarter!

    These are my predictions, feel free to discuss or add your own predictions!

    I don't agree with you at all on the Detroit game, with Mathew Stafford as their QB how in the world do you see them only scoring 13 points! lol Also unfornately I don't see us winning that game, Stafford will definitely put up more points than Luck in Detroit. I do agree with you on the other games though, I think we will trounce the titans, lose at Houston, take care of K.C. but I don't think it will be as hard as you say it will be, and beat Houston at home. If we do that we will end up 10-6 and in the playoffs!
  3. Hard to tell how the team will react to the brutal beating we got in foxboro. I think we either come out flat or super motivated. I truly feel Andrew will be super motivated for this game to atone for what happened in the last game, so that in itself tells me we will win!

  4. The buffalo game could go either way, I think it depends on if we bring our A game like we did against green bay on our F game against new england. But being that it's played at our home park, I think will make the difference as Andrew has played very well at Lucas Oil, so I see us pulling out another squeaker.

  5. I absolutely HATE the patriots, mostly brady and bb, there well known for rubbing it in on a team, and in todays game there was the perfect example, with them ahead 52 to 24 with less than half a quarter to go brady is still throwing the ball to get another td to really humiliate us.TOTALLY DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We don't play them next year but it's possible we will play them again before brady is washed up, and most likely the game will be in Indy, and when we do, we won't forget this game, and Luck and the Colts will be really good by that time, and we will pay them back BIG TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  6. Very happy we got the win, but we'll need to be alot sharper against the patriots if we expect to win. Way too many dropped balls by the receivers, the 50 yard bomb to Avery was a perfect pass from Andrew it was right in his hands, have no idea how he dropped that. If the receivers had caught all the balls that they should have Andrew would have had another 300 yd game. On the other hand was very impressed with Butler at cb, he definitely should be starting over either Davis or Powers!

  7. With mjd out I think the jags will try to light us up through the air especially because our 2 best db's are out. Even though it's only Blaine Gabbert, hes still capable of having a big night, we saw what he did to us in the last minute of the last game. I think the key to the game will be to put constant pressure on him, alot of blitzes should do the trick. It worked for the Saints against the Eagles, the Saints dont have a good front four for pressuring the QB but they blitzed constantly throughout the game and got to Vick a number of times for sacks or atleast harassed him into poor throws, if the Colts do the same thing the outcome of the game should be in the Colts favor.

  8. Did you guys know that when we win this game, and if houston loses to chicago, then we're only 1 game behind first in the division.

    I think thats very likely after this weekend, because I expect the Colts to win their game and I foresee the Bears knocking off the texans on Sunday!
  9. 4 years is very optimistic but not unrealistic. The AFC is no longer full of powerhouses Considering that Pagano & Grigson are changing from a 4-3 to a Hybrid and going to a more Power run game and Luck's only truely reliable receiver is Wayne ( plus at this rate we wont really have many top 10 picks in each round like other teams in rebuild mode) I'd say its more like 6 or 7 years

    6 or 7 years you've got to be kidding lol. At the rate their already going this year, shouldn't be more than 1 or 2 years!
  10. The 49ers have a great defense and a really good running attack but Alex Smith is nothing to write home about, that's for sure! If Smith was on another team he probably would be a backup QB! That's why I don't think they'll ever win a Superbowl with him at QB, despite their great defense! If you notice the teams that usually win the Superbowl, are teams with great QB's, Eli Manning, Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Ben Rothlesberger just to name a few. I believe Andrew will be up there with those guys within 2 or 3 years, and by that time I feel our defense will be very good through good draft choices and free agent aquisitions! I don't think we need to be like anyone else, within a few years we will have established our own identity, and after that I feel we will be perrenial contenders for the Lombardi trophy for years to come!

  11. I thought Andrew played very well in the first half, and not as well in the second. If he can put it together for 60 minutes of a game(which he really hasn't done yet) we will have one heckuva QB! And I know that he is a rookie and in time he will get over the hump of having one good half and the other not so good. Personally I think one way he can get better is by throwing less long balls and going for shorter patterns or checkdowns to the running backs. If you look at rg3 his completion percentage is much better than Andrew only because thats pretty much all he's throwing is the short stuff. I really think it would benefit Andrew's growth as a QB if he didn't throw so many long balls and concentrated more on the short stuff, also if he threw shorter passes they would come out more quickly and he'd have less of a chance of getting hit so often! I think as he matures as a QB he will complete more of the long passes that are falling incomplete at this stage of his career. I'm not trying to nitpick about Andrew just offering a little suggestion that might help his progress, because in time I truly feel he's going to be a great franchise QB for the Colts, for many years to come!

  12. Our pass defense isn't that good, if anything it's because they keep runnin the ball down our throats, and don't even bother to pass the ball that much, I mean why should they, when they keep gouging us on the ground all the time.

  13. I think the roof should be closed all the time! More importantly than the fans being able to see everything, it's gotta be very difficult for the players to see the ball going from the sun to the shade or visa-versa! Timing in football is everything, and this diversion could have an impact on the game!
