Fans willing to go on Record: Bold Colts Predictions


Michael Lebron

Recommended Posts

This thread will be interesting to revisit throughout the season: Make as many bold predictions as you wish.

1. The Colts will beat the Bears in the season opener 21-17 and the media will suggest how good they always felt the Colts could be in Luck's first year after deeming us the worst team in the league.

2. I predict Andrew Luck will throw for over 3400 yards and will finish top 3 in the AFC just behind Manning and Brady.

Our rushing attack is stellar. One of the best in the league, but not a single back goes over 1k.

Avery ends the season around 1100 total yards, 6TDs

We have a new FG kicker by week 6

Luck does not throw for more than 25TDs

Bethea makes his first All Pro team

Delone Carter leads the team in TDs with 11.

10-6 record. wildcard seed

I agree mainly Texans lost some pieces and more LBers in camp so far,might be Texans (INJURY BUG BITTEN) this year.And if Brown stays at 1 back he will break 1k.Ballard could do it IMO if he got the carries.Our O-Line will be talked about soon enough they will be fine.D will greatly improve even as season progresses Grigs will grab the next best talent he can afford.I do not want to even imagine the D we draft and buy next year with almost 60 mill cap space.

Donald Brown & Delone Carter have 750 Rush Yds each. Andrew Luck throws 24 TD's. Powers leads the team in INT's. Mathis & Freeney COMBINE for 22 Sacks

I think thats more likely. I expect us to be trying to come back from deficits quite a bit this year. Which means more passes. Everything else I agree.

The Luck led Colts stun the world and finish the year 9-7 with a gutsy defense and grab a WC before losing to the Steelers in the AFCCG in the final seconds as heavy underdogs.

Now how is THAT for bold. ;) :)

Absolutely. And this thread is about Bold!!!!

9 to 10 wins sounds fun. Division or WC.

For the record, if the Colts win 3 games it would not stun me. If they won 10 it would not stun me. Thats how this season feels to me right now. Nothing would suprise me or even bug me. It is one of those seasons. Win or lose I will be proud.

I wasn't about to post here cuz my prediction isn't bold, it's the truth. We are gonna finish 12-4 and win the division. Will be 1 and done in the playoffs though. Will be a top 15 defence and a top 10 offense with Wayne getting 1300+ yards. #truth

Andrew Luck will throw for 4,100 passing yards 36 t'd's 2int. 7rush t'd's. The Colts is going to beat the Packers in week 4 and go on to win with 11-5 reg. season record. The Colts will play Peyton Manning and the Broncos in the division round of the playoffs in Denver.What happens next hmmmm.......let's save the that for later it will kill the excitement if i told you who wins that game.

1. We will have at LEAST 3 Punt/kick returns for a TD this year.

2. The Colts will break the top 20 on ESPN power rankings by Week 10.

3. We will be in the top 3 teams for sacks

4. And the boldest IMO: We will have a Top 15 Secondary.

You're #4 Prediciton was a REALITY Last Season. We're Ranked 15th against the Pass. It's the Rush Rank (29th) That was the Problem

I am aware, but we were ranked high based on yardage. Considering teams could just run all over us, they didn't need to pass as much. Stats on rushing attempts and yards against us reflect that (nearly all the other teams in the top 15 based on ypg had quite a bit more attempts and we were ranked 28th based on point allowed) It was clear from constant roster changes and lacks of interception that there was a weakness in the secondary. I think we'll have a better run defense with the bigger bodies and the 3-4, so we'll see teams passing against us quite a bit. Therefore my bold prediction was meant to be in the context of to 15 overall not just based on YPG allowed.

    • Don’t know if it really says a lot about anything? I mean he’s neck and neck with Veach who’s won 3 Super Bowls in 7 seasons. Also, I’m not sure Veach should be credited with Mahomes - it was Dorsey who drafted him.    I do think a lack of star power has been a trademark of the Ballard era though. 
    • I ran across this analysis on Reddit showing Ballard having the second-lowest rate per year of drafting Pro Bowl players among NFL GMs with a tenure of at least five years. I was kind of surprised by it, but it fits the narrative of him putting together a solid team, but one that's mostly lacking in superstars. I hope this improves with the results of our promising 2023 and 2024 drafts.      The GMs Chris Ballard, Colts (7 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Quenton Nelson, Shaq Leonard, Jonathan Taylor (3) All-Pros per season: 0.4   Eric DeCosta, Ravens (5 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Justin Madubuike, Patrick Queen, Devin Duvernay, Kyle Hamilton (4) All-Pros per season: 0.8   Jon Robinson, Former Titans (7 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Jack Conklin, Derrick Henry, Kevin Byard, Jeffery Simmons, AJ Brown (5) All-Pros per season: 0.7   Brian Gutenkunst, Packers (7 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Jaire Alexander (1) All-Pros per season: 0.1   Brett Veach, Chiefs (7 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Patrick Mahomes (thank you u/darcys_beard), Mecole Hardman, Creed Humphrey, Trent McDuffie (3) All-Pros per season: 0.4   Brandon Beane, Bills (7 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Tre White, Matt Milano, Josh Allen, Wyatt Teller, Taron Johnson (5) All-Pros per season: 0.7   Jon Lynch, 49ers (7 seasons) All-Pros drafted: George Kittle, Fred Warner, Nick Bosa, Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk, Talanoa Hufanga (6) All-Pros per season: 0.9   Chris Grier, Dolphins (8 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Xavien Howard, Jakeem Grant, Minkah Fitzpatrick, Jason Sanders (4) All-Pros per season: 0.5   Jason Licht, Buccaneers (10 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Devin White, Tristan Wirfs, Antoine Winfield Jr (5) All-Pros per season: 0.5   Les Snead, Rams (12 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Janoris Jenkins, Greg Zuerlein, Alec Ogletree, Aaron Donald, Todd Gurley, Pharoh Cooper, Cooper Kupp, Kyren Williams, Puka Nacua (9) All-Pros per season: 0.8   Howie Roseman, Eagles (14 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Brandon Graham, Jason Kelce, Fletcher Cox, Lane Johnson, Jordan Poyer, Carson Wentz, Jalen Hurts (7) All-Pros per season: 0.5   John Schneider, Seahawks (14 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Earl Thomas, Kam Chancellor, Richard Sherman, Bobby Wagner, Russell Wilson, Tyler Lockett, Michael Dickson, DK Metcalf (8) All-Pros per season: 0.6   Stephen Jones, Cowboys de facto (14 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Sean Lee, Dez Bryant, Tyron Smith, DeMarco Murray, Travis Frederick, Zack Martin, DeMarcus Lawrence, Byron Jones, Ezekiel Elliott, Dak Prescott, Leighton Vander Esch, Cee Dee Lamb, Trevon Diggs, Micah Parsons, DaRon Bland, Tyler Smith (16) All-Pros per season: 1.1   Kevin Colbert, Former Steelers (22 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Antwaan Randle-El, Troy Polamalu, Lawrence Timmons, LaMarr Woodley, Maurkice Pouncey, Antonio Brown, Cam Heyward, David DeCastro, Le'Veon Bell, TJ Watt, Diontae Johnson (11) All-Pros per season: 0.5   Mickey Loomis, Saints (22 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Jamaal Brown, Reggie Bush, Jahri Evans, Carl Nicks, Malcolm Jenkins, Thomas Morstead, Jimmy Graham, Cam Jordan, Terron Armstead, Michael Thomas, Alvin Kamara, Ryan Ramczyk, Trey Hendrickson (13) All-Pros per season: 0.6   Bill Belichick, Former Patriots (24 seasons) All-Pros drafted: Tom Brady, Richard Seymour, Asante Samuel, Dan Koppen, Vince Wilfork, Logan Mankins, Stephen Gostkowski, Matt Light, Jerod Mayo, Matthew Slater, Sebastian Vollmer, Devin McCourty, Rob Gronkowski, Marcus Cannon, Chandler Jones, Dont'a Hightower, Jamie Collins, Nate Ebner, Joe Thuney, Jake Bailey, Marcus Jones (21) All-Pros per season: 0.9
    • Cardinals have won allot of close games.  That could flip and they will be back at the bottom of the division.
