As for this whole "the Colts are doomed" narrative I keep seeing here, remember that the AFC champion lost to the Colts, and the NFC champion beat them by 1 in very lucky fashion. This team is a great QB and a not incompetent head coach away from contention. Basically, if they don't fuck up by removing the interim tag from Saturday, and they get the Bears to trade down to 4 from 1 and draft Stroud, this team could legitimately be in contention next season. |

The Chiefs rebuilt their entire interior OL in one offseason, no reason the Colts can't do the same. They have a solid plan in place for LT, LG, and RT, so it's just finding depth at OT and players who can start or challenge to start for C and RG.

Look at the jump we made at OL from 2017 to 2018. Spent two premium picks on Nelson and Smith and signed Glow. The previous five years it was one of worst units in football. Halfway into 2018, it was considered one of the best.
They won't need to be as drastic as spending a #6 and #37 in the same draft, but I would be surprised if Ballard wasn't fairly aggressive with the OL this offseason. |

What was the Colts record in 2012 with a much more talent depleted team around a rookie Andrew Luck?

I know Andrew Luck. Stroud is not Andrew Luck.

True. But this current roster is no 2012 roster and doesn't need another Andrew Luck to compete.
I don't know how good any of these QB's are going to be, but there's this notion from some that we are just bereft of talent and far away from competing. It's not the case. |

Great, he doesn't have to be. He's a lot closer than you likely think, though.
