The Official Colts 0-16 Thread

[rdnk]

So we all know that the Colts are terrible without Peyton Manning. They are also 0-10 heading into a bye week. However, will they be the first team to join the horrendous 2008 Lions?

Here is their remaining schedule:

Nov 20 Bye
Nov 27 Carolina 2-7
Dec 4 @New England 6-3
Dec 11 @Baltimore 6-3
Dec 18 Tennessee 5-4
Dec 22 Houston 7-3
Jan 1 @Jacksonville 3-6

The Colts may have just blew their best chance to get a win after losing to the Jags at home. The Panthers aren't a good team, but I don't see why they can't put up a big score on the Colts. Baltimore has laid two eggs this year, although both were on the road. Plus, no team wants to be the team that loses to a winless team.

The Colts defense is miserable and has given up a whopping 300 points through 10 games. Their offense is also bottom 5, only having scored 131 points. Thus they average 13 PPG and give up 30 PPG.

So, will the Colts go 0-16?

I think the Colts have a 50/50 shot of beating Carolina. Cam's put up big numbers this season, but he's also looked shaky at times, especially against Tennessee.

Then they play Jacksonville again, and even though it's a road game, I'm not handing the W to the Jaguars.

[DaImmaculateONe]

if they can play without turning the ball over they have legitimate shots at Carolina, Ravens, Houston(will likely have the division wrapped up and seed) and Jacksonville

[Bellsprout]

My gut says no, someone will lose to them.

But damn if I can't figure out where that loss is. So screw it. I said Yes.

While it is highly unlikely, I think it will happen. I believe I am the one who started the "Will the Lions go 0-16?" thread back in 2008 at around the same point in the season and we all know what happened there.

Still a great read.

They'll pull off either Carolina or Jacksonville or pull some miracle win. Remember they only lost to the Steelers by 3.

I say yes, they're really really bad.

[The Big Squeezy]

I'll say they either beat Carolina or Jacksonville.
