Except it or don't except it. Doesn't stop it from affecting the team. And not every team is the same nor has the amount the Colts have currently.

Nonsense. You can't just make blanket bullshit statements like that. Terrible post.

Yep, I see that now - sorry, I guess I didn't read the intro sentence to your comparison as I assumed you were just trying to do an overall comparison of the two teams.

That said, as far as comparing 2017 and 2018 I think my comments are still valid and that a snapshot comparison of the game 6 rosters does not do justice to how much more talented the team is than last year.

It's a reason, not an excuse. We are young, have a brand new coach and system, have very little depth and have been riddled with injuries. Those are all reasons that help explain why we are 1-5. They are not excuses. Good teams are able to handle injuries because they have developed depth. We have almost no depth and are not as good team yet.

No team has worse injury luck. That reality -- and Andrew Luck's return to form -- are more important than any record in coach Frank Reich's first season.
"In my core, I'm not discouraged," Luck said after Sunday's loss to the Jets. "From a 10,000-foot perspective, I'm not happy we lost. But I think we are going in the right direction and the results will come."

This sounds like athlete-speak, but I totally buy it in this case.

Yes I can. The Colts seem to have the most brittle players. Somewhere they need to research what is going on. This is nothing new under the sun.
