I checked on the threads from back then.

I only found 2 threads that severely criticized the team ...... one was in regard to the Colts' wide receiving core.

The other was in regard to the Colts using "too many screen passes" ...... those 2018 Colts were largely successful on offense BECAUSE OF those screen passes, so the OP in that thread was barking up a tree that was good, rather than bad.

This is Omaha's "quick" thoughts on the Bills game ...... that was when the Colts broke their losing streak, and improved to 2-5 overall.

Omaha's recap was largely positive in spite of the Colts' sub-par 2-5 record, and in spite of the fact that Josh Allen had a terrible rookie season (10 TD's, 12 INT's and 52.8% for Pass Completions), and the Bills were a bad team.



Dam started a thread pointing out the fact that Darius Leonard was named Defensive Rookie of the Month for September, in spite of the team having a 1-3 record for said month.

On the whole, the ColtFreaks board appears to have been rather supportive of the team and non-panicked, in spite of their awful 1-5 record to start that 2018 season.

I mean, that team had Andrew Luck. The franchise had a future at that point, or at least it seemed like they did. No one could have predicted Luck would retire after that year.

A team with a bona fide franchise quarterback struggling is quite a bit different from what we have this year. This year we’re just sad. We’re not even interesting. The best we can hope for with this roster is squeaking into the playoffs and then an early exit. And that’s not even going to happen.

That team with Luck had a future. This one doesn’t.
