Whatever is necessary to fellate Brady and company down in Tampa. Cowboys, too.

What evidence is there that the Colts are better than their last record? The Titans arent much better, Houston and the Jags I think are worse. Who ever stays healthy this season (including covid) has the edge.

How accurate are those each year? Honestly, how many wins came down to a couple plays last year?

Not only does the record looking off for the Colts, but it has us getting blown out a lot. Including at home to the Jets and against the Lions. Don't see that happening.

4 (if not 5) came down to missed kicks

Depends on what you mean by evidence.

Think about how we lost some games last year. How many were because of missed kicks? We all love AV but that was as bad a kicking season as we've ever seen. We don't know what the new guy will be like exactly, but he's gotta be better than what we had last year.

Is this offense better? You gotta think so. We've added new WRs and RB, other guys have gained experience (Pascal, Campbell). Rivers has got to be an upgrade over Brissett. The OL has another year under their belt as a unit. We didn't lose any major contributors.

Is the defense better? You gotta think so. We didn't lose any major contributors there either. Its a young defense that will have even more experience, and Buckner has gotta make the dline that much better.

I think just on special teams alone is good enough for a 2 game swing in the record. But put together all the rest, and it could be more.

Good question. I think 8-8 is more likely than 11-5 and somewhere in between is the most likely.

There are some question marks-is Rivers done, depth at wr and cb, etc.
