Now that the season is over for the Colts, it’s time to recap the season and hand out some awards. First up is MVP, and it’s pretty easy to guess who wins this award.

The 2018 season was a surprise for Colts fans. Not many expected the team to be this good. But now that it’s over, it’s time to recognize the good, and the bad, of the 2018 season. The first award is the MVP of the team, and it isn’t too hard to figure out who won this one.

Andrew Luck had an unbelievable comeback season. He set career highs in completion percentage,  QB rating, and had a career low sack percentage at only 2.7%. He also had the second most yards, with 4,593, and touchdowns, with 39, of his career.

Luck was a very strong reason this team was able to make the playoff push at the end of the year. He led the offense with confidence and led three game-winning drives this year. He is still the most important player on this team, and still can carry them to a victory if he needs to.

The best part about this season is that he didn’t need to. He finally has a good offensive line and a good running game. Both of those allowed him to have these type of numbers this season. Luck certainly won’t take them for granted, as he knows what life is like without them.

Next year, expect Luck to be even better. He was timid in the early part of the season because he hadn’t see live game action in over a year. That won’t be the case next season. With a league-high amount of cap space available, the team could get Luck some more weapons too.

Next. Should the Colts re-sign Adam Vinatieri?. dark

All in all, it was a great season for number 12. And he could be even better in 2019.
