We know that the Colts have aspirations of making the Super Bowl next year, but is that a realistic goal to achieve for this team?

As the Colts are currently constructed, they have a chance to be really good next season. They have a young team that now has a chance to develop and grow in the offseason. But do they have a chance to make it all the way to the end and hold the Lombardi trophy?

With the way the roster is right now, they don’t have enough. That is mainly because this roster didn’t show the consistency that you need to have down the stretch. There were moments where they looked like a really bad team, especially early in the year.

They still need to add a few pieces. They need a pass rusher who can consistently put pressure on the quarterback and make him move around the pocket. The Colts also need to find another receiver who can be counted on to make critical catches and not drop the ball.

Building depth along the offensive and defensive lines are also something they still need to do. They had a lot of injuries on the offensive line and it killed them early in the year. Building that depth helps prevent that. Same thing goes for the secondary.

Just because they don’t have these players now doesn’t mean they won’t in the future. They still have a bunch of money they can spend in free agency. They also have the draft still to come. This team could look very different in July from what it looks like now.

As the roster is currently constructed, the ceiling for this team is the AFC Championship game. They aren’t a Super Bowl team yet. But that doesn’t mean they won’t be by the time next season rolls around.
