Which Colts should be next for the Ring of Honor?
With Adam Vinatieri set to become the 21st member of the Colts Ring of Honor, it is worth asking who should be next. Vinatieri is an obvious choice. He is one of the greatest kickers in NFL history, helped the Colts win Super Bowl XLI, scored an NFL-record 2,673 points, and gave Indianapolis 14 seasons […]
Colts football is taking a backseat to the world’s football
The life of an NFL fan from May through most of July is rough. Free agency is over, the draft has concluded, and training camp seems like it will never get here. The end is in sight as we approach mid-July, but luckily there has been something to take one’s mind off the lack of […]
Will the Colts attempt to “Pass to score and Run to win” again this year?
Shane Steichen did not reinvent the wheel when he made that statement last year. Any team will tell you that they need to run the ball to win. That could mean a few things. It could mean that you want to be able to run the ball, so that you can slow the rush to […]

This offseason has Colts fans waiting with bated breath
Think back to last offseason. What were your expectations for the Indianapolis Colts? Remember that last year saw Daniel Jones and Anthony Richardson fighting to be the starting quarterback while neither had a training camp to write home about. I’m not saying all fans felt impending doom, but if you’re being honest, you’ve felt better. […]
ESPN ranks Colts as having bottom-half of league roster
According to ESPN’s Mike Clay, Aaron Schatz, and Seth Walder, the Indianapolis Colts have the league’s 20th best roster overall, which doesn’t necessarily bode well for either winning the division or returning to the playoffs (although yes, it’s only an arbitrary ranking, and all thirty-two teams will still have to prove it on the field […]

This six-part Colts What If series looks back at some of the biggest turning points in franchise history, from the Peyton Manning draft decision to playoff heartbreak, quarterback pivots and coaching chaos, while revisiting what happened, what could have changed, and how different the Colts might look if one major moment had gone the other […]
Do the Colts have any unexpected cut candidates?
With our current cap situation, it would not appear that we would cut a player for the sole reason of saving money. What would be other reasons to cut a player that most would consider a part of this coming year’s team? An injury is always a possibility, as well as the emergence of a […]

Should Jonathan Taylor want the Colts to trade him?
We previously looked at the current rumors surrounding Jonathan Taylor and the Indianapolis Colts from the team’s perspective. Given Taylor’s ability and high skill level, moving on from him at this point would be unwise. There appears to be plenty left in the tank, and it could produce second thoughts for the Colts if they […]
Should the Colts trade Jonathan Taylor?
OK. Things at this point are getting a little uncomfortable. One would think that the Indianapolis Colts had learned their lesson when it comes to Jonathan Taylor after that disastrous offseason three years ago, but it looks like we are headed for a rinse and repeat cycle. The rumor mill is picking up and speculation […]

Which Colts players belong on NFL Network’s Top 100 list?
NFL Network’s Top 100 list is always part respect, part reputation and part recent production. It is not perfect, but because the list is voted on by players, it gives a decent sense of who is viewed as a top-tier player around the league. Quenton Nelson has already made the 2026 list at No. 99, […]
All-PFF Colts team revealed over the past 20 seasons

According to SI.com’s Albert Breer, Indianapolis Colts veteran defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo could have his best starting safety duo since his former 2021 Cincinnati Bengals defense made a surprising Super Bowl appearance: Specifically, that AFC Championship title season, Anarumo’s 17th ranked defense got hot in their deep playoff run, as they were anchored by the […]
Did Colts’ Warren hit the rookie wall or was he a victim of circumstances?
Tyler Warren was just what the doctor ordered. The Indianapolis Colts had an incredible deficiency at the tight end position and he single-handedly lifted the entire unit.
