Luck still hasn't thrown a ball yet and your #1 center is out for at least half the season.. ruff Lol Luck has been throwing since mid july, Kelly is out 4 to 6 weeks of the season Mid-July?! Lol and he's still on PUP. I want what your smoking... I've read numerous of reports saying that he hasn't thrown any reps to any of his WRs. I wasn't trying to bust balls, just stating the obvious. But now I will.. Best wishes!

July 24th Several articles about him starting to throw the week before, pop up all over Google He's still on PUP because he's not ready Week 3 is my prediction for his first game.

To who though?! Some HS kids? That like saying TB is throwing to a bunch of scrubs in a dunkin donuts parking lot. He hasn't had any reps with his WR. That's going to hurt the team.

The AFC South is actually going to be a two team race this year between then Texans and Titans, The Colts will blow up the team next season. Jags offense is a mess. I really think it is a toss up for the south. If Watson can be half of what he was in college the Texans can be scary. A healthy Colts team can win it all as in SUPERBOWL No they cant. The Colts simply arent very good. They arent bad, but they arent good. Even with a healthy Andrew Luck, which they dont have, they're hovering around .500 record. Maybe a game or two better, maybe a game or two worse. A 7-9 or 9-7 record is more realistic for the Colts this year. Then they'll clean the coaching staff out, which is way over due. And if they get a competent coach and the GM knows what he's doing, they can start to build something around Luck. AFC South is the Titans division to win/lose this year. Id stick them around a 10-6 record with the Texans behind at 9-7. And Im still not confident about Luck playing before week 8 this season if at all. There's already rumors the Colts are testing the waters to trade for Brock Osweiler

However others have followed suit in the rumor. Indystar backed the rumor as well as multiple people from NFL Network. I like you and I like your optimism but I think you're in for a rough year.

I should say that if the Browns eat most of that contract, and we don't give up much value, i don't care if we get him.

There's just nobody that's going to take that salary on. I think only like 4-5 teams have the cap space for it and most of them are fairly set at the QB position. With him not even playing in week 3 though I think its a done deal he's gone from the Browns before the start of the season. Just where though.

I agree Its kind of amazing how he was such a hot commodity coming of the superbowl year, and man, did Texans fans chat a bunch of crap Now no one wants him lol

They went to the playoffs first 3 years of career with a healthy Luck even lost in the AFC championship. To say that with a healthy Luck they are a 7 win team is hilarious. Colts better not get Osweiler.

Man, I look at that Colts roster, and I don't see a very good team. Even with Luck, they aren't on the same level as other elite teams.
There is no one on that team that scares you aside from Luck. They got some good players on offense, but the defense has no one. Who is rushing the QB? Covering WRs aside from Davis? LBs in coverage? They may surprise, but on paper, I don't see it.
Titans, if healthy, are the class of that division this year. I think they are a solid team that can make some noise with their style of play. I don't think the AFCCG is out of the question.
Patriots win the conference though. Zero threat in their division and little throughout the AFC.

I look at the 49ers roster and think "we dont look THAT bad" but realistically we're a 3-4 win team at the very best. Cant let your fandom give you a biased opinion.

We are better than people think
Titans are not as good as people think.
I said i think we win the division, but i do not think we go anywhere in the playoffs
(This is working under the assumption Luck is back by week 3)

I hate that everyone is picking the Titans to win the South. It's just setting me up for utter disappointment.

Indy sucks plain and simple. They have a couple good players, but so many holes in that boat it is sinking fast. They messed up by not putting a good O-line out there. They were to busy bringing in over the hill players, instead of developing a good team. With Luck they will win 7, without him the will win 3-4.

If the oline builds upon the end of the year improvement, our offense will be tough to stop
Our defense is our weakness, but i figure it to be mediocre as opposed to awful
Our schedule is EASY.
We win 10 games.
