Game To Watch: Nov. 16th vs. New England Patriots
This is a rivalry as old as time as the Patriots will travel to Indianapolis to play the Colts in what promises to be a game with playoffs seeding on the line. Andrew Luck should be well on his way to an MVP caliber season as the Pats bring Tom Brady and company. This is just the latest chapter in what has been a great rivalry between former division rivals.
Toughest Stretch: Week One-Week Five
The Colts will get tested right out the gate when they travel to Denver to play the Broncos and then the road doesn't get any easier. Playing the upstart Eagles, traveling to division rival Jacksonville before hosting Tennessee and then wrapping up against the Ravens is the toughest the road gets for these Colts. The Colts won’t get tested often with this schedule, but right out the gate, any team could step up and surprise the Colts.
Predication: 12-4
The Colts could stumble out the stretch and start 0-2 as they play the Eagles and Broncos, but after that they could go on a tear. With little to no viable competition outside of the division winning teams, the Colts could finish anywhere from 13-3 to 10-6. The only swing games that could get in the Colts’ way could be road games against the Steelers week 8, the Giants week 9 and the Titans week 17
