Default One game doesn't make the season

We need to suck a few more times before I get pissed.

I’m not even pissed just in total disbelief at the lack of heart and fire on this team.

Disbelief in the coaching staff who continually got killed by Flowers and we all know the threat that Jackson is yet there was still no plan in place once he broke the pocket.

The special teams was a disaster all day.

I’m over it… these guys NEED to be playing in the preseason

I've been apathetic for a while anyway.

I never really get mad at them anymore though, just myself for doing this year after year.

We're certifiably insane.

Seems like the same issues year after year. I’ve been apathetic as well for a while now. The last year I was excited going into the season was AR’s 2nd year, after he showed so much promise as a rookie.

Since then, meh.

The Colts won’t go anywhere until they get a franchise quarterback. Jones sucks.

I will be watching this season for fun because I think we are going to be the same slow-motion car wreck that you see coming but cannot turn away from watching.

New management, new system, new direction in 2027 which sort of sucks because of the lack of a 1st round draft choice in a QB heavy draft but it is what it is.

Hopefully, we can get a solid QB prospect with the 33rd pick of the draft.

Not mad but more like sad.

One game cab make a difference. Teams have won 11 games and stayed home.

How many seasons have it been the Colts have become the Chokes. It's now a pattern.

This isn't just one game. It is a continuation of a decade of failure. Not getting rid of Ballard last year has cast a huge pall over this fanbase. Just look at what this board has become. Only a few die hards left and nothing to even argue about. It sucks having zero emotional investment in these people but who is masochistic enough to invest in this group? Everyone in the organization seems to take this shit as just fine. Nobody got pissed with the complete debacle that last year turned into, just found the ususal excuses losers always find. Our leader, Carrie, in her wisdom decided that if we just tried a little harder we would all be fine. I'm hoping she becomes a raving bitch about this bullshit we experiencing but wont be holding my breathe. Billions make the pain much less I would imagine. I continue to watch this crap because in 73 and have been doing it since i was 10. My long long shot for the season is AR somehow gets a shot and shows improvement enough that we can start to believe. Not going to happen but i need something to think 'positive' about. And i'm still fucking pissed.

Banger right here.
Complacent performance, by a complacent organization from the corner office to the water boy- complacency!

We suffered a historical collapse last year, stuff that will be noted in NFL history for the ineptitude that we exhibited in going 0-7 to end a season. The team was so thin at the most important position in sports, we brought in a 40 year old man with a pool noodle connected to his shoulder with no camp- because that was the BEST we could come up with. One of the most train wreck endings to a season that has ever been.

The result- the only real competition in training camp, was at kicker.

This organization is so trash.

But when they lose an important player to injury everyone will scream “why were they in there?”

It doesn't, but still, there was nothing all that positive from that game past the first drive.

What really bugged me is CJ Allen being a healthy scratch. Dude was literally their highest drafted player this year, and it's not like there's a bunch of all stars, or stars, or quality NFL starters, or average NFL starters, or below average NFL starters in front of him.
