So far this year the Colts are the only team to beat the Vikings.

Vikings have wins over two playoff teams from last year in the 49ers and Lions.

Just wanted to add a positive perspective to our only win yet from this season. Winning isn't easy no matter how good you think a team is now or how good they were the year before.

Yep the Vikings win is looking better and better. However, I don't think the Lions are what people thought they were coming into this season. They have issues and frankly they look like a very immature football team that might have listened to their own hype coming into the season. The 49ers though are the real deal.

Every season since 2002 someone has gone from last to first in a division in one offseason. If it happens again this year imagine if it was the Vikings? lol.

I know but thats why the worst to first (if it happens again this year who knows) is a suprise. :)

Still wouldn't bet on the Vikings but stranger things have happened...

Honestly when I looked at the 8 last place teams from last year I am not sure if there will be one but if I had to rank them in the order of the teams most likly to do it I would go like this.

1. KC

2. Redskins

3. Vikings

4. Colts

5. Bucs

6. Rams

7. BIlls

8. Browns

Frankly I think there is an outside shot for the top three but it would be a major surprise. I think there is zero chance it happens for teams 4 threw 8.

Oh I wouldn't either lol. But, with the last place teams you would not really bet on any. Thats why we all sucked last year. :)

Megatron has that Madden curse killing him. If he doesn't shake it, Detroit isn't doing anything this year.

I was thinking about that too. Who would have believed that the Vikings would beat the Lions this year...the football world is strange this year.

The Lions dont look like a playoff team. They're quickly becoming the new Cowboys. A lot of talent going nowhere.

I cant say I'm sold on the Vikings either. I think the 49ers win was a fluke. They just didnt look like themselves. The 49ers that beat the jets easily today would have won last week. I think the 49ers just overlooked the Vikings and ended up getting sucker punched by a mediocre team.

We should have been 2-1 as well.

      Colts Select Laiatu Latu Edge UCLA

      https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/rams-tried-to-trade-up-for-brock-bowers-then-byron-murphy   You seem to be right.

      Colts Select Laiatu Latu Edge UCLA

      By w87r · Posted

      Read this this morning. Thought it was interesting    https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/indianapolis-colts/news/colts-rams-nfl-draft-trade-offer-revealed-rejected/be019bcd2ee81b6ffeb4656e     "This was the rejected trade offer from the Rams to the Colts in the first round:     Rams get: Nos. 15, 191   Colts get: Nos. 19, 99, 154   While that's the kind of deal Chris Ballard would be expected to take in the past, the Colts clearly had an eye for edge rusher Laiatu Latu.   It's clear that it would have taken much more in the offer for the Colts to move off the chance of selecting the prospect they believe was the best defender in the entire draft.   There were a few viable prospects available at the time so it would have made sense for the Colts to trade back.   But this only proves how convicted they were in draft Latu."     Not too surprised we turnt that down as it has us losing on the draft chart by a little bit, but does show the conviction they had in Latu.

      How to Beat the Texans (and every other team)

      Offense wins in the league now and to take it a step further the QB is by far the lost important piece on any team.    So, on offense you need the best possible QB with the best possible supporting cast and on defense you need players who can affect the play of the opposing QBs directly.

      This is definitely an issue. So, either Ballard is A.) Cheap and he doesn't want to spend money on FAs (even with injuries happening) or B.) He can't build a competitive enough team to attract any worthwhile FA's after 7 going on 8 years now.    If AR and the current team can't attract FAs that could theoretically get a starting job at the S position for a year, then we are in big trouble according to the opinions of the players of the NFL. Personally, I think Ballard just avoids FA so much that he doesn't want to bring outside help in. He wants to be known as the GM who builds his team from the draft.   Wish the local media would call him out on this.

      I think the Colts have the money to be competitive for a good free agent safety.  I think bringing in one of them may depend on whether a player like Simmons wants to play for the Colts.  They may be hoping to sign for a team with a better chance of making the playoffs.   So I don’t know if Ballard is making a statement or not?     Hope my answer makes sense to you….
