well if history repeats its self, the colts will rest the starters the last two regular season games, so can we put it at like 266.5?

Hmmm

I was going to say (32 x 16)/2 = 256, but that works too :P

I've considered this many times in the past when running office football pools. (PIT rear by the way).

Forget Madden. Tecmo Super Bowl is where it's at.

That's Bob Sanders' theme song. Unless the O-line can suck less, we may see our QB going out before the season is through. Forget the lombardi - let's just hope he survives the season. Hopefully during next offseason we can bring the O-line from god awful to below average.

I can't imagine anyone (here, if you are a colts fan) being against the OP's premise. But the chances are slim to none. But, no matter how slim, there's still technically a chance. If someone can win the lottery twice, or someone can get back-to-back holes in one on par 4's, or get struck by lightning more than 2 times, (yes, these things happened) anything is obviously possible. Just highly unlikely.

No matter though, I cheer as if every play is for a playoff spot. (in a sense it is)

He is still going to be a rookie when he enters his 17th season?

actually and dont ask why i did this lol, cause we all kknow a superbowl isnt going to happen but he meant 267 games which is all the games added up this year including playoffs and superbowl

16 x 16 = 256 + 11 is 267

16 games a week

16 weeks

11 playoff games (superbowl included)

equals out 267 total games this year. (that is excluding bye weeks lol)

lol im bored so i thought id do the math and post it lol. but in reality if they did have a big suprise season and get a winning record then wild card and and being out in the first round is the only thing they would do. there is no chance for a superbowl this year obviously lol.

4.260 games/Wild card. 4.264 Divisional games. 2.266 Conference games. Must be that new math or quantum physics.

I've figured out the math secrets to football. ;)

:facepalm:

I'm pretty sure that was a joke.

I just did 32x16 for the regular season, but that works!!! lol

Yea i did the long way. I thought it would be an easier explanation to understand. haha

    • I do think the reason for the suspension is because of who he was speaking with. Clark is probably the most hyped prospective athlete to come to Indianapolis. Had this exchange happened with someone else it probably only makes the local tabloids. But Clark is national news-level celebrity status. It honestly kind of reminds me of Taylor Swift in terms of popularity and a fast rise of celebrity status. 
    • Bottom line is we should be ranked in the 14-18 range as a mediocre team for now, and until we sign a veteran CB or FS, you could make a case for ranking the Colts at 20 or so. It feels like an offseason as of now where we strengthened our strengths and didn't improve our weaknesses (besides WR). RB depth is still bad, TEs are still iffy with the same group based on potential after we missed out on Bowers, not sure if we actually have a solid cover LB, and the secondary is a mess still with only a couple day 3 additions and a re-signing of Blackmon for a year.   The strengths are great strengths and they should help carry us with the trenches. However, our team is going to depend a lot on players coming back that were hurt. Mostly at the QB position and the secondary (also TE with Woods which is underestimated). I would feel much better if we signed a one-year veteran at either CB or FS.   Otherwise, there are other teams in our division, conference, and in the NFL as a whole that got better in FA and the draft. A lot of teams picked ahead of us and had more picks/more draft value as well. I feel like we are that middle child type team where the top teams who pick lower in the draft are much better than us, and the worse teams sign lots of FAs every year and draft higher than us. It always feels like we lose ground or remain stagnant until we can get the QB position right. That needs to happen before we can become an elite team in the NFL, start regularly winning the division, and become a top 10 team on the normal.   My $0.02 cents.
    • I would rather not have to worry about drafting a backup QB too early especially with the talent in the upcoming 2025 NFL draft.  Rather wait and draft our QB3 in Rounds 5 or later.  Who knows maybe we hit on an UDFA and get a Mr. Irrelevant capable QB like the 49er's.  
    • Morning bud just finished updating a posting in Colts Football board about this same topic of debate more about the Ehlinger future role.  This season will tell if AR can remain healthy all season.  How much Flacco has left to play.  Ehlinger's trust to start given his somewhat demotion during Covid-tenure and the Club looking to bring back a retired QB in Phillips to start, believe against the Raiders.  Next man up for the Colts behind AR wouldn't mind going on record would have to be Mac Jones, now with the Jaguars.  Jones is young and serviceable much like what Flacco and Minshew have done. 
    • Let's all make it through this season first.    After that I wouldn't mind going after Mac Jones as our #2 backup behind AR.  Do realize Jones was traded to the Jaguars but currently listed as a 2024 free agent.  Jones' 2020 season still is the highest-graded season by a FBS QB in PFF College era since 2014 and still leads all QBs with an impressive 95.8 grade.  Zach Wilson also in 2020 had a 95.4 grade, Joe Burrow in 2019 had a 94.9 grade, Jayden Daniels in 2023 had a 94.7 grade, and Kyler Murray in 2018 had a 94.6 grade.     Still a lot of hope around AR and yet still a lot of uncertainty given his short college career.  Very similar to Caleb Williams.  More worrisome about injury projections.  Flacco should be good for one season.  Unfortunately for the Colts signing Flacco we lost out of any 2025 NFL Draft compensatory picks losing Gardner Minshew.  My top upcoming NFL draft replacements for Flacco, after Mac Jones, would be Jalen Milroe (Alabama) and Jaxson Dart (Mississippi).  A lot to like about both.  Milroe is a dual threat QB and Dart elevated his play in Lane Kiffin's RPO/play-action-heavy offense.  Dart's already breaking Eli Manning's college records.  Dart's great at working outside of the pocket and clearly needs to get better staying in the pocket.   As for Ehlingher's replacements can see the Colts look at Coastal Carolina's Grayson McCall another mobile pocket passer with quick release speed or K.J. Jefferson (Arkansas) another dual threat QB.
