Colts 2023 A Time To Change

[ChristianPatriot]

No. Root for the Texans. The Colts essentially must beat the Texans in Week 18, to have a chance at the playoffs. So, might as well have a scenario in which both the Texans and the Browns have fewer wins/more losses than the Colts.

Might be a tough ask for Case Keenum to win another one.

Why push back? Make sure that shoulder is ready.

Looking ahead a bit.

Colts have benefited from a relatively “easier” schedule this year. Now of course credit to them for playing who was in front of them and putting themselves into a position to make the playoffs. Curious to see how see they do next season.

AFC East
Bills, Dolphins, Patriots, Jets

NFC North
Packers, Bears, Vikings, Lions

Certainly a step up in the quarterbacks they’ll have to face.

Colts might be a better team next year and not get as many wins.

Getting an early start on that optimism formula for next year. Don’t let up!

I am sure it will shine through when he gives us our 2024 Colts Thread Title.....

I just hope it isn't 2024 Colts: The Triumph of the AR pick over Levis

Nope, just another way of continuing this season’s pessimism…

Another aspect of this.

If we win the division, that would mean that our games outside of the ones listed above would be against other division leaders. I believe that would mean Ravens, Chiefs, and Niners. I think.

As a reference, because of how we finished last season, this season we played the Patriots, Raiders, and Rams.

Next year’s schedule could be significantly more difficult.

Part of the NFL formula for parity (and a hard salary cap). Really works. It has made pro football king. No one even close. Remember when NASCAR was going to surpass the NFL? I do.

Heck football is so popular a college no name bowl game outdraws big name D1 basketball…

Also a much shorter season compared to baseball and basketball. Every game matters SO much more.

Think about one NBA playoff series. 7 games. That’s almost half an NFL season.

ESPN's simulations think it's going to come down to us vs. the Texans (link to ESPN article is inside this article):
