2015-2016 Super Bowl Champion? - guyofthetiger - 07-24-2015
What team wins the Super Bowl this year?
RE: 2015-2016 Super Bowl Champion? - guyofthetiger - 07-24-2015
I picked the Colts. They were the victim of deflate gate last year. I think Luck leads them to the promised land. I think the Bengals make the playoffs, but still not able to finish the deal.

Lions, baby

I think if Megatron is healthy, they have a shot. He was on my fantasy team last year and kept getting injured.

Lol @ thinking the balls played a role in the Colts thrashing.
Hard to go against the Pats, especially when (ok, if) Bradys suspension is reduced. Best coach, best QB of a generation.
Edit: in the NFC don't sleep on AZ.

Andrew Luck couldn't find a dixie coonskin with an Ohio hooker holding his prick and showing him the way.

Packers- Best QB, Best RB, Best WR core, Solid Offensive line, Two good pass rushers, and a solid secondary. That's going to be a tough team to beat come January and February.

AFCC - Colts over Patriots
NFCC - Packers over Cardinals
SB - Colts over Packers

I voted Colts. No real reason, I just have a gut feeling this is their year.

I just wanted at least one person to name them, so I nominated myself. Been a Lions fan 30 years (Bengals and Lions: that's a lot of combined misery), and my dream is that ever-elusive SB matchup.

The Colts can't keep dominating a very weak division and playing .500 against the rest of the league and hope to win it all.
RE: 2015-2016 Super Bowl Champion? - guyofthetiger - 07-25-2015
Wow. Nobody picking the Bengals yet. lol

I do have to admit it's hard to tell how good the Colts are based on the fact that their division has boasted either THE worst team in the NFL or ONE of the worst teams in the NFL or TWO of the worst teams in the NFL for Luck's entire tenure. Wowza, so from 2011 onward the worst, or 2nd worst team in the NFL has been in the AFC South...and they've all taken turns at being in the basement with 2 wins. That is nothing short of astounding.
Can you imagine the 4 teams in any other division rotating 2-win seasons over the span of 4 years?
2011 - Colts 2-14
2012 - Jaguars 2-14
2013 - Texans 2-14
2014 - Titans 2-14
That is amazing. Perhaps I'm too floored by this.
RE: 2015-2016 Super Bowl Champion? - J24 - 07-27-2015
The Colts remind me of the Cavs during the first Lebron era. They have a great player who is surrounded by good/ mediocre players/old players. There key signings this off season average age 31 (Only Nate Irving was under the age of 29). I could see them making a run at the title because Luck is that good but at the same time I think the lack of talent eventually catches up with them.

The Colts traded Cleveland for Richardson which ended up being a bust. Who will be their back this year?

Irsay drunk in a shopping cart.
Their #2 would be Frank Gore who they signed this offseason.

No team can load the box enough to stop Hill and also have enough defenders leftover to cover AJ and our tight ends.
Our D is stacked with Geno returning to 100%, MJ back with Dunlap rushing the passer, Burfict returning to be all over the field, our young corners coming to play, and even guys like Hardison could surprise by causing havoc in the middle.
Whoever we play in the playoffs better hope that it's a warm game or that Hill is hurt because games in the cold are won on the ground, and Hill was the best back in the league when he was on the field last year, which everyone conveniently overlooks.

Andy Luck has the 'Carson Palmer Playoff Mentality Gene'. All the tools in the world but he comes up small in big games against good teams.
That dude will never win a SB without someone carrying them there, ala AB carrying JoeSchmo to the SB a couple years ago.
Scratch that. Flactoid actually had to make some pressure throws in those games. Luck can't do that.
You heard it here first.
That is, if you haven't already heard me say it before about a billion times.

It's funny because you act like a QB should throw the ball and catch it himself. Face it, Flacco had one of the best playoff runs ever by a QB. The lengths you go to discredit what he has done is both amazing and sad.
