How 'bout them Colts?

I think that we both know the answer to that is that Andrew Luck was blessed with playing on a very talented team in college, and inherited a good roster when he took over with the Colts.  Now that salary cap has had it's way with the Colts roster, Luck is looking very...average.

I think it's both of what you said. The Jags seem to be making progress while the Colts seem to living on their past glories and are getting their butts whipped right now! I'm very disappointed in Grigson. After 2 full seasons of drafting, he still can't seem to find good Offensive Linemen as well as good defensive guys. It's as if he waits for some team to cast out a defensive guy then hires him for cheap. Usually, these cheap guys are on their last legs in their careers. That kind of mindset is how his defense gets 30 pts hung on them by the Jags.

I'm feeling very lackluster about the Colts this season. Aside from Luck, the roster is CRAP! How the hell did Grigson get these guys and Pagano approve them! Pagano is supposed to be building a "monster" - a team the entire NFL should be afraid of. Right now, it looks like he built a soccer ball - a team the entire NFL can kick around. This season's team should have this slogan "Want an easy win? Play the Colts!".

For the first time in my life, I actually have enough money to watch every single Colts game if I wanted. But I'm not paying to watch THIS SEASON's train wreck! Are you freakin' kidding me?

I'm thinking that maybe the Colts win 5 games - tops. Anything over that and I'll be seriously surprised!

The Bengals on the other hand... dude... I looked at y'all's roster. Your team is stacked! You guys have a very good defensive line and that Burfict dude is an animal! AJ Green is phenomenal and your Offensive line is decent (I wish the Colts had them). Your 2 running backs - Hill and Bernard - can make any team take notice! Your QB - Dalton - seems to be more accurate.

The only thing I wonder about is your team's coaching. On talent alone, the Bengals should make the playoffs. But if your coaching sucks... well... you know!

I don't know enough about your coaches to comment, so you'll have to tell me if they're good or not. The only "coach" I know something about is Marvin. But he seems to choke at big games. I don't know if he's still doing that.
