Colts Monday Morning Awards: Week 4 vs Commanders (London)
The Colts shook off an ugly first quarter and leaned on their run game to walk out of Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with a convincing 30-13 win over the Washington Commanders. Was the first month of the season pretty? Absolutely not, but the Stampede Blue Community would have accepted a 2-2 record after a tough stretch […]
The Colts won, but Daniel Jones needs to get a grip
The Indianapolis Colts found some much-needed fortune in London as they managed to beat the Washington Commanders and climb to 2-2. Yes, there was skill and preparation involved, but there was a lot of luck as well. Daniel Jones tested that luck throughout the game, but if the Colts are going to keep winning, they […]
Colts cruise past Commanders 30-13 for third straight international win
The Indianapolis Colts found their rhythm Sunday morning in London, overcoming an early deficit to cruise to a commanding 30-13 victory over the Washington Commanders at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Colts win ugly in London, as overcome sloppy start vs. Commanders and eventually settle in
The Indianapolis Colts (2-2) overcame a sloppy start to beat the Washington Commanders (1-3), 30-13, in London in Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, to begin playing .500 football for the first time in the 2026 season. In particular, the Colts and starting quarterback Daniel Jones got off to a dreadful start, as Indianapolis had only 1 offensive […]

Stampede Blue Reacts Survey Results
Following a nail-biting win home win against the Houston Texans, the morale for Indianapolis Colts (1-2) fans may be slightly improving ahead of an international London game versus the Washington Commanders (1-2) this weekend on Sunday morning. Still, that number remains very low among the Horseshoe Faithful, as only 25% of Colts fans believe that […]
The Colts’ Strength of Schedule is evolving.
We all know that preseason strength of schedules are not an exact science. They are most often based on the previous year’s record, while sometimes someone will look at projected win totals for the coming year. Those projected win totals are tricky with the .5 associated to each team. What we can say, is that […]
Colts’ Keenan Allen downgraded to OUT for London game with groin injury
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Keenan Allen was downgraded to OUT with a groin injury and will miss Sunday morning’s affair against the Washington Commanders in London. Colts head coach Shane Steichen initially announced that no players were ruled out, but the six-time pro bowler was limited in practice this week, so there was always an […]
5 Questions with Hogs Haven: The Tea on Colts vs. Commanders in London
In Week 4 of 2026 our Indianapolis Colts will travel to London to take on the Washington Commanders. Knowing the party was crossing the Atlantic I sat down with Andrew York (eboracum) of Hogs Haven, SB Nation’s Washington Commanders blog. We swapped questions and answers about both the Commanders and Colts and what follows is […]
A look back at the Colts’ international game history
The Colts are heading overseas again. Indianapolis will face the Washington Commanders in London in Week 4, marking the franchise’s fourth regular-season international game and its third trip overseas in the last four seasons. What once felt like a rare event has quietly become a fairly regular part of the Colts’ schedule. The franchise has […]
Colts Week 3 Film Review: Tough Win vs. the Texans
As I’ve had time to sit with Sunday’s result, I feel pretty much the same way as I did when the clock hit zero. Yes, the Colts finally won a game, but they won a game in a way that they haven’t in a long time. Ugly vs. a good team. The Anthony Richardson era […]
Indianapolis Colts Injury Report: Who’s In and Who’s Out
The Indianapolis Colts released their Friday injury report ahead of their Week 4 game against the Washington Commanders in London. Wide receiver Ashton Dulin (ankle) had been listed as QUESTIONABLE for Sundays game against the Commanders. Dulin has missed two games through injury but managed to practice fully twice this week. Sunday would be a […]
Hopefully, the Colts remembered to pack their newfound defense
Toiletries? Check. Clothes? Check. Identification? Check. There are a few travel essentials any time one leaves home for a trip. Going overseas can heighten the stress to ensure everything is in the suitcase before walking out the door because although you can probably pick up toothpaste at your final destination, doing so is a pain. […]
Marcus Mariota to Start vs the Colts
For the first time since Avengers: Endgame was the top grossing movie in the US (2019), the Colts will face off against Marcus Mariota at Quarterback. On Friday the Washington Commanders announced that starting QB Jaden Daniels would be out for a 2nd straight week with an elbow injury. Thus Mariota gets another start after […]
Indianapolis Colts Injury Report : Week 4 Thursday
The Indianapolis Colts today released their Thursday injury report for their week 4 game against the Washington Commanders. Tight end Mo Alie-Cox (illness) missed practice again today. Back to back missed practices throws Alie-Cox status in the air. He is such an underrated part of helping the offense do what it dies best. He may […]
Our first month with an app broke our commenting records
A month ago we announced the release of our new app, which you can find here or by searching SB Nation in your neighborhood app store. Quite a few of you have downloaded it over the past month and have been using it. The goal with this app was to make it easier to join […]
Colts’ Week 3 QB Analysis: One Step Back
Thanks to the nflFastR project, Pro Football Focus for the timely sources of data. For those of you new to this, I will publish key QB stats each week judging how well the Colts’ QB performed. Yes, O-Line, receivers, and play-calling impact these numbers but they are primarily QB measures. I will probably modify the charts throughout the season. […]
Indianapolis Colts Injury Report: Week 4 Wednesday
The Indianapolis Colts released their Wednesday injury report for week 4 of the NFL season against the Washington Commanders. Tight end Mo Alie-Cox (illness) missed practice today. Players usually miss one practice through illness then bounce back the next day so expect to see Alie-Cox back tomorrow at practice. Wide receiver Keenan Allen (rest), corner […]
For the Colts to win, Daniel Jones must be better
Quarterbacks turn the ball over. Houston’s defense causes turnovers. Because of that, it makes total sense that a quarterback facing the vaunted Texans’ defense would turn the ball over, and that is exactly what Daniel Jones did on Sunday. If he and the Indianapolis Colts hope to create a winning streak, however, he will have […]
How good do you feel about the Colts’ first win?
In football, we judge our teams by wins and losses. It makes sense, otherwise we’d have something like figure skating or the X Games where you get scored by judges, or like the old college football polls deciding a national champion. Careers can be defined by the amount of wins your team can amass, so […]
No change on plans for Colts WR Alec Pierce’s means for recovery, but still hopeful for season return
According to head coach Shane Steichen, while he was seen in the press box during Sunday’s win on a scooter and with a heavy cast on his reinjured left heel, there has been no change regarding Indianapolis Colts wideout Alec Pierce’s current planned means of recovery (via FOX59/CBS4’s Mike Chappell): Rather, the plan is still […]
Despite groin injury, Colts are encouraged regarding PK Spencer Shrader’s status for London
According to his special teams coach Brian Mason, Indianapolis Colts kicker Spencer Shrader should be good to kick in London this weekend against the Washington Commanders—although he may be on a “kick count” in team practice this week (via The IndyStar’s Joel Erickson): Per Mason, Shrader was booming kicks during his pre-game work ahead of […]

Colts have quietly been one of the NFL’s most disciplined teams
There have been plenty of things to criticize about the Colts through the first three weeks of the season. Penalties have not been one of them. Indianapolis has committed just 15 accepted penalties for 100 yards through three games, according to the league-wide numbers posted by Ari Meirov. Only the Raiders have given up fewer […]
