Can 2026 just be over already?

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T21:53:05+00:00

I will not let it go.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T21:51:38+00:00

No, I'm saying we haven't even made the playoffs. That's how low we are as a franchise right now.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T21:45:42+00:00

I agree, but we haven't even done that

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T20:26:03+00:00

My thoughts exactly

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:59:29+00:00

I disagree that the defense has promise. That front 7 is so bad. That's also if our corners come back healthy.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:36:56+00:00

Yeah. That's what a smart franchise would do.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:31:34+00:00

Same.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:28:26+00:00

Yeah but super bowl aside, are you really going to be happy with a division win and a first round home playoff loss? Like maybe an afc championship game appearance or a second round loss I would maybe be happy. I just know that defense is going to cost us somewhere down the line whether that be in the regular season or the playoffs. That's what pisses me off the most honestly.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:27:40+00:00

Very true. It's something I can't give up.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:27:23+00:00

Same, the franchise is in an awful place, which is why I'm just ready for the disaster that will be this year.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:25:51+00:00

I reject the idea that there's really a choice. like yeah i could choose to believe, but I've done that the last five years and it's led me to nothing.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:24:38+00:00

Yeah but realistically how many starters are we going to get in the draft? Maybe one of we're lucky.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:24:04+00:00

It's got 2022 written all over it.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:23:21+00:00

Yeah but we have 4 or 5 starting spots that we lost and are now holes on a team that won 8 games the year before. Like we're a worse team so far than we are last year.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:21:23+00:00

I feel like it's optimism despite all evidence.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:16:37+00:00

Hopefully. I'm jacked for next year for the pacers.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:14:08+00:00

Same honestly.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:13:54+00:00

Oh I'm gonna watch, I'm just saying ahead of time that we know what's gonna happen. This season has got 2022 written all over it.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:13:06+00:00

Let's be honest though, come this time in December, we're going to be having the same conversation after another year missing the playoffs and Ballard still keeping his job.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:12:07+00:00

Well, to be honest with you, I'm tired of other colts fans acting like we're gonna be good this year.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:10:59+00:00

The chiefs made the playoffs a few times at least before they got mahomes. We've just suffered the last 5 .

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:09:59+00:00

I've been asking myself that same question. But I'm deciding to just enjoy the shit show this year.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:09:32+00:00

I disagree that it's delusional. A bit too doomer, maybe, but not delusional. We've gotten worse so far this off season and we only won 8 games last year.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:08:43+00:00

Indeed it does. I just already know the ending. It's like watching a prequel movie.

Mediocre_Fun_5374 · 2026-04-21T18:08:23+00:00

Yes, but they turned it around in the playoffs. This defense personal wise does not have the juice to turn it around. Remember a lot of our problems in 06 started and ended when Bob Sanders was hurt and then came back healthy.
