I don't think that that will happen, but I won't be completely convinced of a change to their proverbial "Groundhog Day" mediocre ending to a season until I literally see the number "10" in the l W l column.

Rarely has a season given equal fodder to two entirely different, diametrically opposed points of view.
The cold, hard fact is that the Colts suffered a historic collapse over the last half of 2025, losing seven straight games after an almost fairy tale beginning to the season.
A reasonable man can argue that this was simply the continuation of a pattern often repeated over the past few years. That there is something seriously amiss about the organization, the front office and coaching staff.
On the other side, there’s the argument that the losing streak was the result of injuries, that when you lose plan A and plan B at Quarterback, the results are predictable. Especially when you factor in the loss of Braden Smith, DeForest Buckner, and two of the best Corners in the game.
Everyone knows which side of the argument I hew to.
