 I'm old...... school.

 AR needs to matriculate the ball down the field.

 And may we get some good signs from our infant CB's. 

[IndyD4U]

Just want to see how Richardson handles himself and no injuries across the board. 

[Smonroe]

The Oline was bad in our first preseason game last year. Buffalo owned them, and I think it was mostly their seconds.  
 

I want to see that first unit play like last season was a bad dream.

 

Also, I’m always interested in watching the new guys.  

[Indyfan4life]

AR. 

How the RBs will be used. 
Our CB and secondary in general. 

[1959Colts]

O-line

[Matabix]

Both lines early, and DBs and WRs late. Last seasons preseason MVP Sam.

[IinD]

#5 .... Going DEEEEEP ... lol

 

All joking aside, I want to see how our new head coach looks in live'ish' action. And of course the oline.

[cdgacoltsfan]

I'll be there...unless there is lightning and or a tornado..lol....I'm in the 100 level and the price was right....Free! I want to see how AR and Josh Downs look.

[Pelt]

Just want to see how poised AR is. Just don't want to see him look completely lost out there.

[DEColtsLover36]

Agree with everyone and in general, just looking forward to seeing that beautiful blue color back out on the field!

   

[Indianapolis-Colts-Fan]

Our WR group. I’d like to see improvement especially from Alec. Pittman also needs to step up his game. Also excited for the likes of Josh Downs who I think is going to be that elite route runner this team hasn’t seen since TY. 

[AKB]

Most excited to see AR5. 

 

I am excited to see all the rookies who will be active though. Also like multiple others have said, I really hope our offensive line looks more competent early on. 

 

Yes we did get whooped by their second string last year, but to be fair they had a lot of people on their bench who would've started on a lot of teams. They were super deep at DE, i haven't checked this year, but i'd assume they are still good at edge rusher

[Zoltan]

Pretty much everything related to the offense, from how they use each individual skill player and AR, to what formations they use and any inkling of how the offense will look this fall. Granted it will probably be very basic/vanilla but this will be the first time to run plays against a different team. 

On the defensive side, the CB group should be an interesting watch 

[Solid84]

I just want AR to get his feet wet and get a feel for the NFL tempo. I don’t expect much from this first game, but would of course be pleasantly surprised if just took command and balled out. 

[Dark Superman]

1. Anthony Richardson. 2. Shane Steichen's offensive playcalling. 3. Josh Downs/Will Mallory/ Drew Ogletree/ Alec Pierce. 4. Fries/Raimann/Running Backs 5. Dayo/Ebukam/Ade/Bryan/Lewis 6. ALL the Cornerbacks.

[Nadine]

Cannot wait, need to get ready for company!

Looking forward to a look at our new qb and coach!

[cdgacoltsfan]

Weather looks like it's going to be better than previous forecast. We are heading to Orchard Park around 10. I'll tell Anthony everyone says hi

Looks like the weather is gonna hold out until after the game.

Besides what’s already been stated, I’m actually curious about the return of Bills Safety Hamlin. The dude nearly died from a collision last winter on the field. 

[Smonroe]

Same old Colts - no pass rush, the play calling was bland, and we ended up losing the game...

 

(My prediction for some posts after the game)

AR needs to enroll the ball in a university down field?

As for pass rush, it's still Gus....the ONLY guy more allergic to the blitz that Eberflus....so yeah, likely. Lol

[indyagent17]

Of course I want to see Richardson, but I also wanna see how the defensive backs play today

Freeland is going to start at RT.  Chappell said he was getting bowled over in practice by Dayo.

 

I hope they have a gentleman's agreement not to kill each other's QBs today.  Or, at least, whoever starts at TE or RB can pick up a rusher.

[stitches]

AR, OL, CBs... DEs... Leonard... 

 

A little bit of everything I guess

Oh you for sure know it’s coming, along with the fire Ballard train

[TaylorStillTruckedYou]

I’m real excited to see how Bernard Raimann looks

[PRnum1]

Can AR move the ball down the field with the short passing game against the Bills number 1 defense for the first quarter

[jvan1973]

AR bust.  Fire everyone. 

 

Just getting ahead of things
