While some of that might be on the players, the vast majority of that is a coaching staff that failed to make quality 2nd half adjustments, decisions or motivations.
Luck + No Pagano/Chud + healthy Kelly/Hooker/Geathers + 2018 draft class + real offensive system = A ton more wins in 2018 than in 2017.
Heck, Reich over Pags is probably a 4 - 6 win swing all by itself!
We are not SB bound in 2018. But it would not surprise me to see 10 wins and a playoff win as well. I really don't think the 2017 Colts were that far away from being an average NFL team held down by terrible coaching.

This is why we didnt fire Pagano before last season. Ballard knew it was going to be a throw away year and Pagano is the WORST coach at 2nd half adjustments.
Why hire a new coach and set them up for failure their first year? Better to wait a year, make sure you get that 3-13 record, get those high value draft picks and then hire your new coach.
