I can't imagine anyone would believe that their season was a failure. Perhaps people believe it was a disappointment, given the way they did through about three and a half months. I can see how some may consider it a failure, but I would disagree.

Me too.

I think they had a good season and should be excited for next year.

But I'm curious what the local fans are saying. So soon after the gutwrenching loss I wouldn't be surprised if the majority say it was a failure.

I still can't get on the poll

You are probably going to have to try on an off hour. Although, it will depend on how long they leave the poll active.

I don't know anyone here who sees the season as a failure. It was great, and I'm looking forward to next fall. Now the game, that was a failure.

Well, I got in and voted NO, LOOK AT THE 14-2 RECORD,

But as I expected, landslide saying it was a failure (88%)

POLL RESULTS

Molly · The Mediator

Ow! Apparently I'm in the minority. I got in and voted just fine, but 88% say that yes, the season was a failure. I don't think that's fair to the players. What type of fans are these?

Take this same poll in three months the results would be reversed

Hurt ones Mz. They'll get over it and realize how much fun they had for MOST of the season.

I don't think it is fair. It happens. It is sports. Why do you think they play these games?

I think the poll should have had a third option, not a failure but perhaps being disappointed because of their great record and tremendous effort.

I can imagine that people in Philly would have thought the same thing about the Eagles after they lost the Superbowl last year.

I agree- throw out the baby with the bath water don't you. This year was by no means a failure for the Colts!

In some ways the season was a failure when the expectations were reaching the Super Bowl. But the ride was worth the season. I doubt starters will get that much rest again. They looked out of sync until the 4th. I'll read the articles tonight. Don't want to right now.
I wonder about internet polls. I think you get flamers stacking the deck. I'm sure those who feel it was a failure are the same ones who sold their tickets to the thousands of Steeler fans that were in the dome. Good for them. Take away the home field advantage.
