From my outside perspective the Colts don't seem to have the running backs or o-line to rely on the running game in the redzone. Ballard definitely doesn't look like a power back (plus he's been hesitating too much from what I've seen) and Bradshaw probably doesn't have much left in the tank. I expect Luck's production to go up this season, but part of that could just be wishful thinking since he's on two of my fantasy teams.
No, I think Luck will definitely be better than last year. He's already shown signs of it, and won't have to make as many difficult throws. He has a pretty good group of receivers to play with this year too (almost unchanged from last year). The thing to watch is how quickly he loses confidence in the line and starts making poor decisions. The oline is the biggest concern, and the inconstant running game. Ballard does hesitate a lot, but will sometimes hit the hole hard. He and Bradshaw have the potential to be a good two back duo, and hell, even Donald has shown signs of being decent. But I just don't see it behind this line, and Ballard still has a lot to fix.
EDIT
Scrubs in sports games always pick the best teams to try and hide how awful they are.
The 49ers guy was pretty fucking bad. I think it was 28-7, and his 7 was on the luckiest screen play ever. However the the Seahawks match was fucking crazy, won on the last drive.
The Phins user had like a two TD comeback on me, and I botched a fumble recovery for a TD by accidentally pitching it (I found out L1 was pitch the hard way). Lol.
The Chiefs user returned 2 kicks on me, so fuck Dexter McCluster. And I had a hard time stopping Jamal Charles on the outside run.
I choked the Cowboys game away, he won by 1pt getting a 2pt conversion the drive before. I had like 1min and something left and threw a pick. Got the ball back with like 25 or seconds left and couldn't do shit.
Gotta say I'm actually enjoying this years Madden more than I thought I would. Still a shit ton of problems and easy exploits, but it's good fun. Btw user picks are soooo fucking easy in this game, although you need something to counter how OP offense is in this game. It's pretty funny, what does turning off that ball hawk setting do? Anyone know?
