More like....Super Bowl!

im sorry but im always optimistic. When we were 0-8 last year, i thought to myself, "Were gonna bench Painter, the backup will win our last 8 games and maybe we can slip into the wild card." Then maybe Peyton will be healthy to come back.

at 0-9. "Maybe we will win the last 7 and we still have a slight chance to make the playoffs and Peyton will come back."

at 0-10. Okay, maybe we should go for Luck! but he will back up Peyton.

Im satisfied with Lucks play though, he looks very very promising. I see the best quarterback of all time in the future. If Kurt Warner led his team to the Super Bowl and won as a rookie, so can Luck! okay?

I like the optimism, but let's be realistic. At best, we might win 10 games. With that being said, I really liked what I saw today. If our defense can continue to play like they did the 2nd half we will be well on our way to a double digit win season. Luck is definitely poised for a great season and I'm excited for the future. Probably not this year, but maybe in the next few years we can build a Super Bowl caliber team..

Conceding losses to the Patriots, Texans twice and possibly one other...the Colts could go 10-6 with their remaining schedule.

Keep in mind the second time we play the Texans is at home when the Texans may be resting their starters because they may very well have a play off bye already.

Also Hoosier keep in mind that Houston has never won in Indy, like Baltimore, Green Bay, and Minnesota. Two of which we have beaten this season. I hope we can keep the other two winless here too.

I for some reason think we had a curse put on us back in 2009 where we can't ever field a healthy team... i would like to see us have all our starters play to see how we play. i never look ahead but i think this game vs NYJ is winnable we can improve on our running game next week as well.

What makes me even more happy is we did this without Davis, without King, without Angerer. We weren't even at full strength. Casssius Vaughn did a good job on James Jones today. Total team effort!

    • I gotta say you make arguments that you’d never accept from your students because they’re so superficial.      So saying Ballard has been mediocre to bad is tissue paper thin.  Why hasn’t Irsay fired this mediocre to bad GM?  Because he signed off on what Ballard did each year in real time, not after the fact.   Irsay knows Ballard has an eye for talent.  And as Ballard freely admitted in January, the Colts haven’t had more success because he failed to get the QB right.  These aren’t excuses, but it IS badly needed context — which you’d realize if you weren’t always looking for new ways to hate on CB.      As to what you and Moose “supposedly said”  there’s a simple way to verify.  Go to the Day 2 draft thread of Friday April 26.  It was between 3a and 4 my time when I saw it.  I believe it was recent.  Just add 2-3 hours depending on your time zone and you can see your conversation with Moose.   What was so astonishing, what makes me “prattle on” as you put it is how you two ever thought you were right?!?   Given your career choice you jumped to conclusions I’d like to think you’d never accept from your students.   Why you thought Ballard didn’t know more?  Why you thought you two knew better?   Ballard not only knows more, he knows dramatically more.  As I said in another post, he shared the tip of the iceberg.  He doesn’t share the part of the iceberg that you can’t see.  The 90 percent.  The absence of curiosity is stunning given your occupation.    Now, at the bottom of your post you brought up a new line of attack on me and I have no idea what you’re talking about?   I’m not an optimist?   Since when?  Based on what?   In my 12 years here, only 1-2 posters have ever made that claim.   So what are you talking about?     Finally….   You can stop calling me Sir.  It’s normally said with respect.  You don’t respect me at all.   I’ve extended olive branches publicly and privately, and both have been rejected.  Your choice.  So calling me sir is intended as an insult.   It’s old and boring.   Move on.   I don’t know why you “enjoy engaging with me”.   You take a beating.  But if that’s what you’re in to, be my guest.    Sorry this went so long….       
    • He loves you, you just don't know it (sarcasm) 
    • Cubs actually won one - beat the Giants finally.
    • Jared, put $50 on the Lakers to win it all. They are getting +4000 odds, you would win $2000, if you lose, you lose just $50. Hear me out, those odds will drop bigtime shortly because I think the Lakers will make a huge move to bolster their roster.    LeBron wins his 5th tying Magic and Kobe, Lakers tie Boston with 18. Perfect ending because LeBron looks like a hero + he just beat Kareem's record too. 
    • So….  You’ve been absent 7-10 days (more?) and you’re back looking to start not one, but two fights!  Okie-dokie!      If you want to call me names — fine.  I’d simply respond that my knowledge is counter-balanced by those who THINK they know a lot, but clearly don’t.   On to your other post.  That one is longer, and so will be my response.
