CR91 Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 we beat weak opponent so we shouldnt get ahead of ourselves or we beat weak opponents with a 40 year old QB and should be a better team once luck returns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatboy Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 All NFL teams have talent, and all wins especially on the rosd are good, especially when the opponent could turn their slow start around with a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooter4910 Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Just thinking out loud about our next five opponents... The Colts are 3-2 playing teams with a combined 8-12 (.400) record. The Pats are 3-0 playing teams with a combined 5-7 (.417) record.- Pats are perfect against teams superior to the Colts opponents - Win Pats The Saints are 1-3 playing teams with a combined 10-6 (.625) record.- They lost to the Bucs and their only win was against a Romo-less Cowboys - Win Colts The Panthers are 4-0 playing teams with a combined 4-13 (.235) record.- Even weaker then our schedule - Not impressed, win Colts The Broncos are 4-0 playing teams with a combined 4-12 (.250) record.- Another weak schedule and playing at LOS - We've done it before...win Colts The Falcons are 4-0 playing teams with a combined 6-11 (.353) record.- Perfect against comparable ranked opponents and in their house....but we're coming in after our bye week..tough call - Win Falcons. I'd wager we would be 6-4 going into the end of our schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd wager we would be 6-4 going into the end of our schedule.The first thing you have to remember is Luck isn't going to be 100% if he plays next week. We are facing a brutal schedule and we haven't had one impressive game yet, our biggest win/loss differential is +7, a 7 point win. Here are my predictions. Pats=LossSaints=Close WinPanthers=LossBroncos=Close WinFalcons=Loss We may get two wins if we are Lucky in that 5 game stretch. These are tough opponents and it looks like our options are either a 40 year old sick Hasselback, or an Injured Andrew Luck at qb. We showed heart and toughness vs the Texans, but these opponents are better than us. Only way we win IMO, is if Luck comes back and goes on a tear. Definitely possible, but he's hurt still.

Let's see how they handle Seattle & Philly over the next two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluefire4 Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I don't know how good of a team we are, but I would be happy with a 3-2 record over the next five. I think we can win 4 or all 5 though if we play to our potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see how they handle Seattle & Philly over the next two weeks.I'll reason for Carolina that their defense has been vicious this year and I have them in fantasy so I've been keeping an eye on them. Cam Newton is also the type of QB that will give us fits (a good passing and excellent running QB that is big and tough to take down). I'm not sure how good their O-Line is, but we may be able to keep the score low. From Cam's results this year so far, it seems like he's breaking out even with poor receivers and he has the defense to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had only played the Jaguars, Texans & Titans we'd be 3-0. I'm still not impressed with the Panthers but we will see tomorrow when they play the 2-2 Seahawks.

That one will probably be close between us and them, I just think they match up well Vs us and that could be a problem. We'll see what happens Vs the Seahawks. Might get a better idea of what we will be facing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though replace the Panthers with Bengals and the sentence still stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatOneColtFan Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I think the biggest things about these wins, is that if there was a time for our division to bury us, now was that time and they couldn't do it.If we make it far this season, these games won't be forgotten. I think everyone's biggest concern should be Luck. We need to see if he's ok and if he will be ok this season..Dearest Andrew,Pls b okSincerely,Colts fans (except Cribbsfaircatch) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
