Give me your two best immediate fixes, to turn the Colts season around.

I am not going to lie, the Texans game hurt me. I think I am about as glass half full as they get, but when the game was over, I had had a hard time processing what had went wrong. There were so many fingers to point, but nothing would change the result. Two straight games of playing teams that were basically in win or go home mode, showed what we would see in the playoffs and we would have been sent home each time. I say this reluctantly, as I know my man card is on the line, but...

Colts WR Alec Pierce named among PFF’s ‘15 underrated 2026 NFL free agents set to cash in’

According to PFF, Indianapolis Colts wideout Alec Pierce is listed among their ‘fifteen underrated 2026 NFL free agents that are set to cash infollowing a so far breakout 2025 campaign for the 4th-year wideout, who’s clearly standing out squarely in a contract year:

WR Alec Pierce, Indianapolis Colts

The Colts’ offense has taken the league by storm this season. While there are a myriad of factors why, Pierce’s play is certainly a large one.

Among receivers with 55 or more targets, Pierce ranks 13th in PFF receiving grade (80.3), 13th in yards per...

Colts fans receive reported encouraging injury update on All-Pro CB Sauce Gardner

Colts fans receive reported encouraging injury update on All-Pro CB Sauce Gardner

According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero, Indianapolis Colts former NFL All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner will not currently be placed on injured reserve with the calf strain he suffered during last Sunday’s home loss to the Houston Texans:

Not only did Gardner seemingly avoid a long-term injury this year, such as a torn Achilles (which was initially feared at first glance), but the Colts are also holding out realistic hope that he may be able to return within a four week timeline. Otherwise, for roster flexibility purposes, Indianapolis may have elected to simply place him on injured reserve...

Five seconds changed the entire season for the Colts

Five seconds changed the entire season for the Colts

Football is a game of inches. It is also a game of seconds. It doesn’t take long for a moment to completely alter a play, a game, or a season. Three moments across five or so seconds dictated the outcome of the game between the Indianapolis Colts and the Houston Texans. Naturally, there were 3,595 other seconds of game play that had a say in this one, so while not everything can be blamed on those five fateful seconds, a lot can be chalked up to it.

Colts sign Kicker Blake Grupe to Practice Squad

Colts sign Kicker Blake Grupe to Practice Squad

The 3rd search for a Colts Kicker in 2025 is over, and a new leg is in town.

Blake Grupe is a 3rd year Kicker who spent 2023-2025 with the Saints. He went 75/94 in his time in New Orleans with the following distance splits.

  • 21/23 on 20-29 yard kicks
  • 22/25 on 30-39 yard kicks
  • 17/23 on 40-49 yard kicks
  • 15/23 on 50+ yard kicks
  • 86/88 on Extra Points

Don’t mistake the 5’7 156 lb kicker for lacking power, with his career long being 57 yards and hitting a 54+ yarder every year of his...

Colts Waive Michael Badgley

Colts Waive Michael Badgley

The “Money Badger’s” time with the Colts has come to a close once again. He has been waived by the Colts after missing his 3rd extra point (18/21) in his 7 games with the Colts in 2025. He was 10/11 on Field Goals, including 2/3 from 50+ yards.

But after Badgley’s miss contributed to a Colts loss vs the Texans and nearly cost the game for the Colts against the Falcons prior to the Bye week (missed his only Field Goal Attempt and another extra point, but did send the Colts to overtime with a 44 yard make late in...

Colts work out Kickers…again

Colts work out Kickers…again

Earlier in 2025 the Colts had a kicking tryout to replace the injured Spencer Shrader, who went out for the season after a hit against the Titans. The Colts decided to bring back Michael Badgley for another stint with the team. He was originally with the Colts for the 2018 Preseason as a camp leg UDFA behind Adam Vinatieri, and returned to the Colts in 2021 midseason. He went 18/22 that season for the Colts (long of 46), alongwith 40/41 on Extra Points.

It hasn’t been all bad with Badgley in 2025. He is 10/11 in Field Goals with the...

Stock Up

Alec Pierce

No player in the NFL has earned himself more money than Pierce has this season. He has elevated his game to a whole different level and is right now the Colts’ best wide receiver on the roster, not just a deep threat specialist like last year with AR. He gets open on intermediate routes, makes catches down the middle, and even got a little action on defense recording a pass breakup on a hail mary attempt. He has also worked really hard in the run blocking department, which is something I always appreciated from...

Colts WR Alec Pierce continues to emerge

Colts WR Alec Pierce continues to emerge

Indianapolis, IN — The Indianapolis Colts are spiraling, particularly their offense, but wide receiver Alec Pierce has remained a dependable force throughout. Blossoming from a one trick pony to a deep threat set the floor for Pierce as an NFL wideout, but his emergence in a contract year has resulted in becoming one of the league’s most underrated players at the position.

Against the Houston Texans in Week 13, Alec Pierce was the Colts’ leading receiver for the second time this season, putting up a statline of 4 receptions for 78 yards. He also made franchise history in the loss,...

The Colts’ remaining schedule is a gauntlet

The Colts’ remaining schedule is a gauntlet

Indianapolis, IN — The Indianapolis Colts are fresh off consecutive losses for the first time this season, and have lost three of their last four games. This stretch includes a bye week that is often regarded as a much-needed break, yet the Colts have only provided questions than answers since.

The Colts famously began the 2025-26 season firing on all cylinders, climbing out to the AFC’s best 7-1 record through eight weeks. After they’d lose to the middling Pittsburgh Steelers in the week following, however, is when nonbelievers began to expose themselves. There were some in the weeks leading up...

Monday Morning Awards: Week 13 vs. Texans

8-4 after an ugly loss, where the defense seemed to be the only ones that wanted the Colts to win, including the refs. Opposing teams seemed to have figured out the Colts’ offense, rendering it useless in three of the past four games, and the playoffs seem to be slipping once again from the grasps of this franchise that just cannot seem to close out winning seasons.


MVP of the Game: Lou Anarumo

Even despite losing his No. 1 cornerback on the first drive of the game, and still not having the most important player on this defense...

Colts-Jaguars opening odds: The AFC South is on the line

Well, this one isn’t fun. The Indianapolis Colts are fading fast and are now headed to the one place in the NFL they simply can’t win. The Colts haven’t won in Jacksonville since 2014, and this looking like less and less of the year they get the job done. The Jaguars are on the climb while the Colts are on the decline. They are now like two ships passing in the night in the standings as the Jaguars have taken over the AFC South lead. The Colts can take it right back with a huge road win. FanDuel Sportsbook sees...
