If memory serves me correctly we had impressive wins in the '05-'07 openers with a solid win @ Balt, then blow out wins @ NYG and vs. NOLA respectively. We also won the openers in '02, '03, '09, and '13, but all just barely against bad teams.

I'm going to overreact by saying that Carson Wentz' numbers for today's game (25-for-38 with 2 TD's and 0 INT's) bodes well for the future of the Colts' 2021 season.

Both lines lost the battle...end of story.

I would like to see the ball come out of Wentz hand quicker though, hopefully that will come with time.

Do we have a deep threat w/o TY? I'm not seeing it.

Where was Kwity Paye?

Blackmon has got to step it up.

How much do we miss Anthony Walker?

He was certainly not the problem today.

Ballard has built this team to win in the trenches. When we get our asses handed to us in the trenches we have zero chance. I don't know the reasons why but to be obvious, we need to get this fixed.

Absolutely, given he had a hugely disruptive pre-season, No TY Hilton, and he must have felt like he was still in Philly when he had defenders in his face every time he dropped back.

He wasn't given a chance to do jack shit, yet put up some pretty decent numbers and made some nice throws. I was impressed with how often he didn't force it and instead hit Taylor underneath.

Seeing the Rams destroy Chicago has me convinced we’re starting out 0-2.

They’re gonna kill us.

You only need to look at the AFC South standings to know that 1 game at the start of the season does not reflect how the season will go. I mean, the Texans are alone at the top!

Nah. I think this team is better than that. Bears haven't been a measure stick in what seems like 40 years lol

I think they come out a much different team next week. I bet Fisher starts and the line looks better as well.
