Couple months ago I said we'd go 10-6, I'm gunna change that to 8-8. Hopefully the coaching schemes and staff get things together and in stride by the end of the season. Then we'll have more money to throw around another draft under our belt and I'm sure some trades that Grigs will pull. People forget this is a rebuilding team no matter how many wins we had last season. Don't panic, have low expectations, and hope for the best. I'm sure we'll be in the super bowl in at least 2-3 years. This team is getting better, they just need some time and adjustment. The monster won't be built in one week, one month, one year. 

[GoodLuck]

I'd rather just suck instead of go 9-7 or 8-8 and miss tge playoffs. Get a top 10 pick. Maybe top 5. Might Luck up on Clowny or Jake Matthews

Come on man....I...Ya know what, just gonna leave this one to everyone else to stare at in amazement.

1-15, we draft a FB with the #1 pick.  Irsay fires everyone after the draft including himself.

[HungarianColtsFan]

I'd say 10-6 at best, but most likely 8-8or 9-7...strictly based on first 2 games.

[TKnight24]

2-14

Forum crashes and we all end up having to move on with our lives

[HtownColt]

11-5

[fvegas]

Hope I'm wrong, but looking at the schedule after how we've played the first two weeks (at home, no less), I'd say 6-10.

[corgi]

11-5.

[CanuckColt]

If the team plays the same way as the first 2 games:

week 3  at SF - L

week 4  at Jax - W

week 5  vs Sea - L

week 6  at SD  - L (probable)

week 7  vs Den - L

week 8  Bye

week 9  at Hou - L

week 10 vs StL - W

week 11 at Ten -  ? W (probable)

week 12 at Ari - ? W (maybe)

week 13 vs Ten - W

week 14 at Cin - L

week 15 vs Hou - W

week 16 at KC - L

week 17 vs Jax - W

 

So I guess it is 7-9 but it could be worse...I had the Miami game as a W (probable).

 

...anyway, we are going to get a good draft position next year.

[pgt_rob]

I guessed 7-9 or 8-8 in another thread due to key injuries. Then my comment was destroyed with rude comments. SMH.

[Dudley Smith]

9-7

 

Whether this gets us into the playoffs is the question. Will probably come down to tiebreakers.

[Stephen]

8-8

[jameszeigler834]

9-7 or 10-6.

[presto123]

 I was wondering all along why people's expectations on this board were so high before the season. Lots of young players and lots of guys that have never played together before. Some guys we didn't know much about. Plus, we are still in rebuilding mode. I didn't expect to go 11-5 again. There was a lot good luck and good bounces to get 11 wins last year. I say we are an 8-8 team honestly. Andrew is still learning, Grigson is still learning, Pagano is still learning, Pep is definitely still learning. Next year or the following year is when the Colts really hit their stride. Enjoy it in the meantime. Get off the ledge and lower expectations just a little:)

[Nobody]

9-7

[Dustin]

8-8.

[Le Neon]

10-6.  We lost a tough one against a team that's probably better then anybody is giving them credit for.  We'll steal one back against a team that's worse then we expect.

[Stephen]

My expectations were high because I thought luck would make the leap but he hasn't yet

[mintor]

reason said 7 and 9 lost ppl too injuries and way noth oline and defence is playing up too this point. lucky get too .500  also we should know bye week we play denver should tell all.

[House]

I said 8-8 well before the season began, and got blasted for it lol. One loss and everyone is jumping off the bandwagon.

Still not wavering off that mark though. Lots of Luck improvement, and team improvement, but a step back in wins was my prediction before training camp.

[mintor]

not about one loss about way the team is playing and injuries .

week 3  at SF - L

week 5  vs Sea - L

week 8  Bye

week 9  at Hou - L

week 10 vs StL - W

week 11 at Ten -  ? W (probable)

week 12 at Ari - ? W (maybe)

week 13 vs Ten - W

week 14 at Cin - L

week 15 vs Hou - W

week 16 at KC - L

week 17 vs Jax - W

I'm reading that as 8-8.  Unless you're not counting the maybe for the Cardinals.

 

This place will be on funeral watch after the Houston game if this comes to pass.  The sad thing is that 2-6 actually looks pretty likely at that point.  If we're at 3 or 4 wins we'll actually be in decent shape.

[coltsfanatic24]

The only way we can make the playoffs is winning the division, not as a wildcard. The Dolphins already have the tiebreaker over us and they have bills2x, jets,2x, panthers,bucs,chargers, steerlers,ravens,patriots,ravens. The Chiefs play the giants,titans,raiders2x,browns,bills,chargers2x, redskins, and colts.  I think both dolphins and chiefs will  win 10+ games and make it as the wildcards.

 

The way our defense is playing and the conservative pay calling by Pep(run on every 1st down) we look like a 6-10 team. If Pryor and Tannehill looked great against Manusky's vanilla defense then i can only imagine what Peyton,Kaep,Rivers,Dalton,Wilson are gonna do. I'm optimistic that we can turn it around but i'm not counting on it.

[mintor]

sad but true ,

[Bluefire4]

um... 15-1!!!

[Devildog]

16-0

 

Then I wake up tomorrow and back to reality....sigh!

[Fx Stryker]

7-9 or 8-8

Been saying it for awhile now.

[MTC]

15-1

[Ja'Crispy]

15-1 but I will settle for 10-6, maybe even 9-7

[MarylandTerrapin]

10-6.  We lost a tough one against a team that's probably better then anybody is giving them credit for.  We'll steal one back against a team that's worse then we expect.

...and that team might be Cincy.  There's always a sexy pre-season pick who underachieves during the season.  Also, NE finally looks vunerable and all the injuries/defections will catch up with Brady.  Don't be surprised if Miami overtakes NE and wins the east.

 

We can go 10-6 and be a much better team than the one who went 11-5.  We'll have a sense of where this team is after the 1st Hou game. 

 

With this team, I'd still rather go 10-6 as a WC and have another one & done in the playoffs than miss the playoffs entirely for a higher draft pick.

I'm eying them and San Diego to get to ten wins.  It gets dicey if we lose any more games we should win, though.  

 

I expect Seattle and San Fran to be pretty brutal.  If we win either of those I'm back to thinking we've got a chance at the division.
