I’m basically an optimist every year but I don’t see a weakness on this team (other than the secondary which I attribute to inexperience.
If the pass rush lives up to the hype, that should help the secondary.
Because the Oline and Dline could be elite and they travel well, and because they have improved their weapons, I like the Colts chances of winning the division and winning 11+.
Love the addition of Latu. I wanted him and/or the corner who is blazing fast and a man corner (cannot remember his name). I never thought Ballard would pick either because of the injury history for Latu and the other not a zone corner. In reality, the D could be a lot better this year than last. However it may not be reflected in the stats because they play some very good qb's this year. Last year, the D faced horrible qb play and what is alarming is that they actually put up stats near the bottom. That being said, I cannot see the D being worse than last year if that is comforting, lol??
We’ll see if it remains average this year. I think it’s possible, but unlikely. Put another way, if the Colts defense is average in 2024 I will be very, Very, VERY disappointed.
I agree with you that he is not trying to build an average defense. It is just a plain fact that after 8 yeas of drafting and free agency, he has managed to do it.
