What do you see the colts record being now?

[coltsfanatic24]

I had the Colts going 9-7 before the season. They will make the playoffs only because the AFC South is the worst division in football. I'd rather them secure a top 5 pick and get a legit player because it's a one and done playoff team.

[JColts72]

Because they play in the horrible AFC South, I will say 7 and 9 and still can be Division Champs.

[Dark_Indy]

1-15. We still, by some miracle beat the Texans in Indy.

[Narcosys]

Same as before; 9-7 to 11-5.

[SilentHill]

The absolute best case scenario is an 8-8 season at this point.

[Bluefire4]

11-5

[Old Colt]

10 - 6......... MAYBE

[colts_100nascar17fan]

9-7 at best, anybody that thinks more needs a mental evaluation.

[RollerColt]

7-9 could honestly happen depending on how next week goes at TENN.

[deedub75]

It's funny how people keep saying we will feast on the weaker teams when after 2 games we have looked worse than those so called weaker teams.  

[FRW]

6-10 Jags twice, Texans here, Titans here, Saints, Bucs. If we can upset the Titans next Sunday in Nashville then 7-9.

[IndySouthsider]

5-11. I think we split the AFC South for 3 wins. Upset Denver and house the Bucs.

[colts8718]

6-10 Jags twice, Texans here, Titans here, Saints, Bucs. If we can upset the Titans next Sunday in Nashville then 7-9.

If we win next week and jags lose plus Texans win there will be a 4 way tie for 1st 

[2006Coltsbestever]

10-6, we still have all of our Divisional games + play teams like the Saints and Bucs. 10-6 will win the Division. We could still go 11-5 as usual. Too early to panic. If we start 0-3 than it's time to panic. Cant lose to the Titans.

[mdwalker]

3-13

[CanuckColt]

Geez...checking the schedule, it looks like 9-7 probable but 10-6 or 8-8 possible.

[ColtsFan1976]

6-10

 

The Colts will possible sweep their division.  I do not believe the Colts will beat Patriots, Broncos, Falcons, Panthers, etc.

[IcyRhythms]

I have to make sure to bookmark a lot of the doom and gloom threads/posts so I can see where we really are come January. 

[King Colt]

It has been said over and over this team relies too heavily on Andrew Luck. It appears they just are not fired up as a unit. You watch some teams and you swear they are playing for their lives while others seem to be there to meet an obligation. I wish I knew what is being said in meetings but apparently all the wrong things are being said. This is not over but on paper the Colts were expected to be awesome on offense and we are not awesome on any part of the game. The defense looked adequate but who ever heard of an "Adequate Trophy"?

[IndySouthsider]

There is zero identity on offense or defense. I have no idea what they are trying to run. Every play seems to be off tackle or a seam with WR. Such low % pass plays. And it's every throw

[F.T. Walton]

Two weeks in. Granted a lot of games left but my guess is 9-7 or 10-6. I was thinking 13-3 before the season but I think that's doubtful at this point.

Right now it is 0-2.  You are what your record says you are.

[Indianapolis-Colts-Fan]

2-14

[Steamboat_Shaun]

I still think 11-5 is a legit possibility. The offense will get rolling soon enough, once everyone's on the same page and can stop committing some of these drive-killing penalties. Plus, the 10 points left on the field last night after what were 2 very promising drives (Vinatieri missed FG, Gore's absurd fumble on the goal line) just cannot happen.

[ricker182]

14-2

[needanoline63]

I do hope we miss the playoffs. I want grigson and pagano gone so bad, it's not even funny

[Colts_Fan12]

Hopefully bad enough to get a great pick and hopefully a new FO

[ColtsBlueFL]

Right now it is 0-2.  You are what your record says you are.

 

And this is what history says about 0 - 2 teams-

 

"Since the NFL expanded to a 12 team playoff format in 1990, only 23 teams of 204 to start 0-2 (11.2 percent) have overcome the winless start to make the postseason.

 

The recent numbers are even worse, as mentioned above: Since 2009, the only two teams to start 0-2 and make the playoffs were Carolina in 2013 and Indianapolis in 2014 have made the playoffs. To put it into third-grade mathematical terms, over the past six seasons you have a 4% chance of making the playoffs if you’re winless headed into Week 3."

 

Only 5 teams in the history of the NFL have made the playoffs after going 0 - 3 to start  season.

 

ESPN's FPI has Philly at 55%, Seahawks at 54%, adn Colts at 51% chance tomake playoffs, despite the o - 2 records.

 

Baltimore Ravens are at 27%

We went 0-2 last season and still went 11-5 and we play in a weak Division. Unless our players have just quit on Pagano we will still make it. 9-7 will win the Division IMO.

[aaron11]

 If we can upset the Titans next Sunday in Nashville then 7-9.

colts are favored

[IndyD4U]

I still see us at 10-6

[Moncrief]

As much I would love for it to be 14-2, at this point.. we're better off at 10-6 or 11-5

[chad72]

As much I would love for it to be 14-2, at this point.. we're better off at 10-6 or 11-5

 

Yeah, 10-6 is what I am leaning towards but if we lose to the Titans, I can see us at .500

[Lucky Colts Fan]

11-5, win the division, we'll see what happens in the playoffs.

 

Hmmm... this sounds familiar.  Wait, didn't we start 0-2 last year and make it to the AFCCG?

 

Haven't we progressed one game farther into the postseason each season since the new regime took over?

 

So the final record will be 15-5 right?  or 14-6 if we lose the SB... Would that be acceptable for everyone? 15-5 or 14-6?

[tfunky14]

14-2

[Moncrief]

Yeah, 10-6 is what I am leaning towards but if we lose to the Titans, I can see us at .500

 

Agreed if we do lose to the Titans than all bets are off.  That'd be a scary predicament at which point it would be extremely tough to play out of.  Also at which point it would be better to have a sub par season so we can get some playmakers, not just receivers

So if the record doesn't get better, the Colts are not a playoff team.  Doesn't mean they can't go 14-0 the rest of the way (no chance).  But right now, they are winless.  They are what their record shows.

[COLTS449]

10-6. We're gonna be fine this year guys. We need a new GM and coaching staff next year, but we're still a top team and we're still going to the playoffs. We'll be OK.

[IndySouthsider]

I thought we had a chance to win those 2 games at the end last year.

This year we have been steamrolled. Not even competitive. This just is not a good team.

[RealityIsLuck]

I could see 10-6 would be my (realistic-ish) goal. Reality would say 9-7, and History would say 11-5 is possible. 

[ricker182]

The absolute best case scenario is an 8-8 season at this point.

No. The absolute best case scenario would be 14-2.

 

There are still 14 games to be played.
