I would have predicted ints to be a little higher, but otherwise my predictions would have been eerily similar. I don't know how to feel about this. The word 'uneasy' leaps to mind

[Patrick Miller 113]

3-13

[Pilgrim 54]

I feel that anywhere between 6 & 10 wins are realistic. Stats wise, I say 25 tds 14 ints.

[2006Coltsbestever 23,979]

8-8, 27 TD's and 15 INT's

[WoolMagnet 3,937]

My prediction:

 

WINTER IS COMING!

Roger Roger.

And dont call me Shirley.

[Nate! 77]

5-11.  Brissett benched for Kelly week 10 after a 2-8 start.  Kelly finishes year 3-3 pushing the Colts out of a spot to draft a top flight QB.  Mediocrity persists for Colts.  Ballard fired after 2020-2021 season.  Peyton is brought in with partial team ownership.  Trevor Lawrence drafted.  New era begins.  

[JColts72 854]

Best case, 9 and 7: worst case, 3 and 13.

[coming on strong 212]

people here are gonna be surprised brissett is our future and is gonna be a top ten QB  i have been calling for brissett to take over since 2017  .  luck checked out at kc mentally .

 

brissett was thrown into to the fire in 2017 , with no training camp got here right before the season started. brissett  had to learn the play book so fast  .    with a bottom five o line  , defense and run game, and average coaching .   brissett played very well people forget we lost 7 games by one score with a better team and a full training camp we could of gone 11-5 easily that year .

 

with a top 3 o line top ten defense last year that has improved , and a solid run game now with mack and much better wrs , and coaching .  brissett has also gotten older and wiser he has a huge arm and can thread the needle into tight widows .

 

we are going to the playoffs and without luck choking we will win the superbowl , like brady did when bledsoe got hurt .

I like your positive approach

 

But......

 

8-8 seems right with this schedule and team

Maybe so. Maybe not. 8 wins or more in this circumstance calls for a new contract for JB in my opinion... But I trust Ballard to make the right decisions going forward. He's going to earn his money, for sure. 

[P'Son 131]

Colts will be just fine.  QB is one position of many.  Wehave two good QBs. Record will be the same as it would have been with Luck.

6-10...our division is tough..

…..We'll give it a good effort but we lost one of the 5 best QBs in the league..2 weeks before the season....

…..Our passing offense isn't very good

Wonder what the rest of the regiment thinks of the Capt relinquishing his sword.  Sad, very sad. 

[WoolMagnet 3,937]

I'm so shocked and bummed that i just gotta laugh.

What else are you gonna do?  I'd like to break something but I know where that ends up.  Life goes on without football.

 

[Architects08 262]

5-11

 

Jacoby Brissett 3100 yards 16TDs 17 Ints. Benched by week 12.

A bit optimistic are we?

 

I'd say without Luck they are not a 7-9/8-8 team at best. The schedule and division is tough this year. 

[ManningGM 601]

10-6.

I like Briskett more than many on this board, but I would like to see what Kelly can do with the 1st team OL

 

Kelly has a good arm, good touch off his fastball when needed, accurate, and mobile

 

Kelly appears to have all the tools to be a decent starter in this league

 

 

But.......  

 

He has had multiple situations where he chose poorly, which may reflect on intelligence

(Or it may be maturity)

 

Can you fix stupid? (I hope its just maturity)

 

 

At the end of the day...... I am HUGELY disappointed that Luck retired,

but I can understand.......  a long healthy, painfree life is good goal

 

I played many sports (I wasnt great) it went from Football, wrestling, and martial arts

at 57,  my arthritis is extremely painful.

 

I have had multiple procedures done on my knees, shoulders, and ankles

(I have bone chips floating around in a few joints) my hip STILL hurts from a tournament from 27 years ago,  (I lost  )

 

I get up every day and decide what combination of pain management that I am going to take

 

I loved sports, but am somewhat glad my son didnt choose to play football.

 

I wish Luck the best. He left it all on the field 

 

 

You HAVE to build an OL to win in this game.........   How many talented QBs get wasted by poor OLs.......

 

Luck didnt let US down.......  the Colts front office (and owner) let Luck down

 

We are now paying the price

I thought that with Luck (excuse the pun) we could have won the AFC this year.

Imagine guys like Ebron and Justin Houston who came to Indy to play with a Colts offense led by Luck.

…...I wish Andrew well but we aren't a playoff team without him....

[Ratking 107]

3-13 

 

Gonna be a lot of bad seasons coming up for many years. Time to start worrying about irsay moving his franchise once people stop coming to Lucas to watch terrible teams.

I said 8-8, 27 and 15. I think we have a solid defense for a change and our O.line is a lot better than in 2017. Having said that losing Luck sucks so no 11-5 now or SB IMO.
