Trevor to torment the Colts!

[James]

With the Jets doing Jets things and winning vs the Rams today thus removing themselves from the 1st pick of the draft and essentially the rights to draft generational Clemson QB Trevor Lawrence, the Jags will now own the 1st pick as they’re not stupid (or good) enough to win their last two games. 
 

That’s NOT good for the Colts. In fact it’s a nightmare as Lawrence is Luck-level talent, and with Watson already tearing the Colts apart the Colts will now   have to face both for the next 10-15 years! Oh, and Tannehill and Henry too.

 

Ballard needs to get his hands on a talented QB for the future otherwise The Colts will be left in the dust. Houston won’t stay incompetent forever, once the effects of BoB have passed they’ll start rebuilding around Watson.. and that’ll be scary.

 

Colts beating the Jags in the last regular season game will send Lawrence straight into their lap... and I frankly hate that. This is the worst.

Do you look forward to the prospect of having to face Andrew Luck 2.0? And Watson? And Tannehill / Henry?

 

Wish I could be as laissez-faire as some people. 

[AwesomeAustin]

The kid is good but so are the Colts.  Bring it on!!

We should just tank and say screw it - some fans in here

Honestly, I would be in favor of the Colts tanking in the game VS the Jags if their playoff spot is locked.  

I'm sure if the Titans, Texans and Jags had the choice (I know divisions were different), they would throw a game to stop Manning from getting into the division.   Damn Rams.

[Mr.Debonair]

[coltfaninnewyork]

Not going to worry about who the jags draft ,out of the colts hands.

[Four2itus]

Na, it's the fans that torment me.

People in here and so short sighted and prideful.

 

Yeah, let’s beat the Jags if it puts the Colts in the playoffs and if we can’t win the division at that point . Of course. But if all is secured... Colts beating the Jags would be the most asinine thing since... well the Jets beating the Rams. You. Just. Don’t. Do. It.

 

Lawrence will be a nightmare.

It’s the Jags. They’ll screw it up somehow. Besides, they need more than just a QB. 
 

you’re also assuming Trevor comes out. There’s a lot of talk of him staying.

In the nfl coaches and players don’t tank ,now that said if colts are locked in you play your backups

If I was him I would want no part of that crap organization or the Jets either. I would stay lol.

[Four2itus]

If you lose on purpose, you're a loser. 

[IinD]

Just like Luck was going to get us a few SB's...

[CR91]

Fournette was supposed to be Derrick Henry. How did that turn out?

I don’t see a scenario where last game is meaningless for Colts. 
If we lose vs Pitt then we’ll need to beat the Jags to make playoffs barring a miracle. 
If we beat Pitt and Tenn beats GB, there is always a chance Tenn loses to Hou and we could win the division with a win over Jax. 
If we beat Pitt and Tenn loses, we control our destiny to win the division.

Eh, if the Colts can’t even beat Blake Bortles and Gardner Minshew and Cody Kessler in Jacksonville, the Jags will have no problem tormenting the Colts with Trevor Lawrence at QB.
 

Most seem to think he’s coming out.

I said he would be a bust  . He isn't but close. I never seen what people seen in him.

Well I’m still not worried about it

[jshipp23]

Something about him says bust to me..

[IinD]

Also want to add, one guy isn't turning around a loser like Jax. This isn't the NBA.

[Fluke_33]

I think the jags will beat Chicago next week and the jets will lose out. 

[2006Coltsbestever]

We have been lucky as a franchise, think about the good to great QB play we have had since 1995. Harbaugh, Peyton, Luck, and now Rivers. We even have a great backup in JB lol.

[2006Coltsbestever]

I am watching Fletch right now  . He told a girl, you ever been to a Laker game, it is the best. I used that line on a girl back when Peyton was here (saying you ever been to a Colts game, i have to take you to one), it is pure showtime and fun to watch 

[Breeze]

I think it’s kind of cool that we’ll get to see TL play up close every year.  The NFL tends to even things out from a talent standpoint.  He’s not going to have players around him that are way better than all other teams like he’s had at Clemson.  In the NFL, practically everyone is a 5 star recruit.  Should be fun.

[Indyfan4life]

So the season is over and Jacksonville is guaranteed the first pick, right? I must have missed the last two weeks of the season somehow. 

[w87r]

Is it something to he concerned about in the future? Maybe.

 

Is it something to be concerned about today? No.

How did the rams lose anyway.

Probably underestimated them and was looking past them.

 

My only guess?

It's simple. Games are not won on stat sheets or odds charts. They are won, one play at a time. It takes total concentration by every player at this level. That is why any team, can beat any team, and vice versa. 

 

BTW...the Colts are 10-4. 

[csmopar]

My level of fear of playing Trevor Lawrence 

[danlhart87]

Jags will be Jags and trade him in 2 years if they get him like they do with all their picks

[DownHillRunner]

Bring him on!! He will have to face our defense for years to come.

And before that we had Unitas and Jones.

But we may be looking at mediocre or bad QB play in the near future? 

That's something Ballard needs to "hit" on and elite QB's are hard to acquire.

Beat watson twice this year. 1-1 against tannehill and henry. Remind me how many superbowls luck won???

[GoColts8818]

I’d prefer him not to be in the Colts division obviously but if he is he is.  You just have to build a team to beat him and the Colts are off to a good start with Buckner and Leonard.  He hasn’t seen monsters like that in the ACC.  

[King Colt]

Ladies & gentlemen I present the next of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game...........Ryan Leaf!!!!

[Fluke_33]

It may be worse than them selecting lawrence.  They may trade the pick to the jets or someone else for their next 5 first round picks.  They need more than one player.

 

In rethinking my previous hope that they beat chicago, that is highly unlikely.
