MTC Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 20 minutes ago, 1959Colts said: I'm not sure we have the worst? But I think we have some serious holes in the roster. Our dominance of the AFC South quickly is fading away. Titans, Texans and Jags are all looking much improved.  1) Titans offensive line is still pretty awful and don't get me started on their defense. It sucks. 2) Brock Osweiler has shown little on why he deserves the $72 million dollar contract. I thought he looked average at best when he started. Lamar Miller is slightly overrated. 3) Jaguars has no offensive line and no pass rush.   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our years of dominance over our AFC South opponents is over. Winner of this division will be 10-6. No better 10-6? Not too shabby...I'll take it lol.

For instance, the Patriots rented Revis for a year - and won the SuperBowl.  The Broncos spent tons on TJ Ward, Talib, and Ware - and won the SuperBowl.  These were good teams that needed difference makers to push them over the top. That's what we are asking for, IMO. I think realistically, asking for a high paid corner, edge rusher, or O-lineman in FA is not a bad idea.

SP_21 Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 The Browns, 49ers, Titans, Falcons, Rams, and the Chargers are all less talented.  Luck, TY, Moncrief, AC, Mewhort, Gore, and Davis are all very talented guys that make an excellent core group of players.  Guys like Geathers, Dorsett, and Anderson have potential and could join the group above very soon.  So no we are not the least talented team.

But he needs to bounce back to what he was the year previous to this past season.  McAfee is a punter. I'm talking about true difference playmakers on the team So field position isn't a difference maker. Being able to do onside kicks and even recover them doesn't make you a playmaker? A guy that could throw a good pass if needed?(If it doesn't get dropped). A guy that can run and make a play and change momentum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a big risk. But having a guy who's been in the league a few years, rather than a rookie, makes me feel a lot better about winning sooner rather than later. But we have to see how he plays first, adjusts to a new system, handles playing a whole season, etc. A risk worth taking I think. I too like that we're bringing in Miller to help ease Brock into the offense. A good running game is a QB's best friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2006Coltsbestever Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Because of Andrew Luck we have far from the worst roster. The QB is the most important position on the field and until another team in our Division gets a Better QB than us than we should be favored to win the Division. TY, Moncrief, Allen, Tony C, Vontae, Jackson, Adams, Vinny, and Pat are all solid players too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
