With a healthy Andrew Luck, the Colts could be much better. Even with a terrible defense, he is always a danger to hang 40 on you. DeShaun Watson looked great as a double threat last season, but his O-Line is God awful and I am counting on us taking advantage of that. I could see us losing one game each to the Colts and Texans, but that should still be good enough for us to win the division by 2-3 games. The Giants don't scare me at all. Barkley is overrated and the O-Line is far from fixed. NE is a coin toss. It should be a close game. Our toughest games should be the Pats, Eagles, Cowboys, Steelers and Washington. Those games could go either way. I'm gonna say we go 11-5.
You think the Cowboys are a tough game? Based on what? They have zero receiving weapons and a suspect defense, especially in the secondary.

You can say you don’t care about the Titans but the fact remains that they beat us twice last year and Blake always seems to have his worst games against them. They have a new OC who will most likely play to Mariotas strengths instead of hold him back like Mularkey did. I’m not saying I think they’re better than us but they did win a playoff game last year with a trash HC.

The Cowboys have the best O-Line in the NFL and arguably, one of the top 3 RB's in the NFL. Dak has the ability to make things happen on the ground and I was a big Allen Hurns fan. I personally believe he is a big upgrade over Dez at this point in their careers. I'm not saying I think we'll lose that game, but it's one of those match ups that I see as a potential "trap game" for us.

As far as the Titans, Mariota just isn't great passer. He needs a solid running game and I see Derrick Henry as a complimentary goal line rusher only. DeMarco Murray was the feature runner and they no longer have that. That was a huge part of their offense and I just don't see them being the same.
