I am a little apathetic too. I think it's insane at this point to come into this expecting an exciting year

I also think there is a lot more uncertainty for this organization with Carlie taking over that people seem to be scared to vocalize or something, for whatever reason. (If Jim was walking around the sideline wearing a head set, the world would be throwing a fit).

I hope AR gets the nod so we can run it and if it doesn't work out, be done with it. I'm pretty sure the only thing that could create real optimism at this point is a regime change.
There have been much worse seasons than this one in terms of excitement.

Remember the 2017 season? With Scott Tolzien as the QB? Or the post Luck retirement season in 2019? Those were some dark days, and they are pretty recent. Let's not get into some of dark seasons in the late 80s and early 90s, where Colts really meant Count on Losing This Sunday.

I'm a bit excited for this season because I still have unrealistic optimism in Richardson, and I want to see how Warren does and to see if Latu will amount to being a great defender. Still, I'm not optimistic to think they'll win a Superbowl or anything, or even win a playoff game (just making the playoffs would be a bit miraculous), but this season is interesting to me as it does feel like this is the make or break year for a lot of critical positions/jobs, like Richardson's, Ballard's, and possibly Steichan's.
