The Indianapolis Colts are 5-7 through Week 12 of the NFL Season. They are currently second place in the AFC South. They lost to the Lions 21-6 last week.

Crashing down to reality against one of the best teams in the NFL

MVP of the Game: Nick Cross / Michael Pittman Jr.

Nick Cross finished the game leading the team in tackles with 14, two for a loss, while Pittman led the team in total yards with 96 and was the only offensive player that had a good day on Sunday. It is hard to write something positive, as the Colts got dominated, but Cross’ emergence as the starting safety has been one of the brightest spots this year, and MPJ was going through a considerable slump so...

Neither team is setting the world on fire, but the Colts are looking to capitalize.

The Indianapolis Colts facing off against the New England Patriots used to be prime time T.V. If it wasn’t the Sunday Night Football game, you could bet it would at least be in that 4:25 timeslot. All eyes would be on the matchup, but that was then. This is now. Both teams have fallen from grace and are coming off uninspiring losses on Sunday. FanDuel Sportsbook sees the Colts as the better team and is giving them a 2.5-point spread advantage.

The money line comes...

Indianapolis (5-7) had 98 yards of offense negated due to costly penalties. There was a dropped pass at the goal line by backup tight end Drew Ogletree and a 40-plus-yard incompletion because backup receiver Ashton Dulin forgot to get both of his feet in bounds after making an improbable catch.

The Indianapolis Colts never reached the end zone in Sunday’s 24-6 loss to the Detroit Lions, who extended their win streak to a league-high nine straight games.

Who expected to win this game? With three rookies starting on the offensive line, miscues were emanate and inevitable. Indianapolis (5-7) had 98...

NFC matchup as the Eagles look to keep the good times rolling

We close off this week of another NFL Sunday with the Philadelphia Eagles (- 146) travelling to LA to face the Rams (+ 124). The home team is trying to sneak into the playoffs after a shaky start and a rumoured fire sale earlier this season, while the Eagles are once again contending for the NFC crown. The Eagles are currently favoured by 2.5-points, with the OU for the game at 48.5.

The Eagles beat the Commanders last Thursday night on what was a key divisional game...

The Colts are at home this week to take on the Lions in this week 12 match up. Get in on this open thread.

The Indianapolis Colts are at home to take on the Detroit Lions for their week twelve game, Sunday at 1 p.m. EST.

Week eleven took our Colts to New Jersey to take on the New York Jets in what turned out to be Anthony Richardson’s best game as a professional (and probably the best game of his life if we’re being completely honest). Richardson was excellent throwing and made the most of his attempts to...

Here are the Colts’ inactives for their game today versus the Lions.

It’s week 12 in the NFL and the Indianapolis Colts have announced the following players will be inactive against the Detroit Lions:

Raimann will miss his third game in a row while Will Mallory will sit this one out. Notably Tyquan Lewis, isn’t on this list. Lewis, who hasn’t played since week four will make his way back to the field today after suffering what looked to be a nasty elbow injury. Lewis’ return couldn’t come at a better time for the Colts who will be squaring off...

The Colts face perhaps their toughest challenge of the season today vs the Lions, but irregardless of the result today, the chance for a playoff push remains... if the Colts can take care of business against the bottom of the NFL.

The Colts by around 4:15pm today will be 5-7 or 6-6 (after a monumental upset victory hopefully) and likely on the outside looking in of the playoffs if the season ended today. Irregardless of the games’ outcome, the Colts are on the cusp of making the playoffs for the first time since 2020.

With 5 games left and a...

Thanks to the nflFastR project and NFL NextGen Stats 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 upcoming opponent QB has 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. Commentary will be brief but feel free to let me know in the comments that stats aren’t everything. (click charts for larger view)

Jared Goff has had a career resurgence after being traded to Detroit and 2024...

The Lions can score. Will the Colts be able to keep up?

No.

The answer is no.

The Indianapolis Colts won’t be able to keep pace with the Detroit Lions when they come to town if they allow the Lions to play their game. The Colts have broken 30-points once all year. The Lions have broken 40-points four times and 50-points twice. A track meet on Sunday does not bode well for the Colts. If they try to match the Lions score for score and are forced to run up and down the field throughout the game, they will assuradley...

While the 2024 Colts fight for a playoff spot, it is also important to look to the future for more reinforcements as they try to take the next step in 2025.

The Colts are currently at 5-6 and are ranked 8th in the AFC, just a game outside of the projected playoff picture from the Denver Broncos. As of this week, they are projected to pick at 15th overall in Round 1, the same spot they were in the year prior.

What can the Colts do to finally move up the NFL totem poll, get into the playoffs, and take...

Colts veteran versatile defensive lineman Tyquan Lewis, a former starter, is officially returning off injured reserve.

The Indianapolis Colts announced on Saturday that defensive lineman Tyquan Lewis has been activated off injured reserve and is currently still listed as ‘questionable’ ahead of Sunday’s home matchup against the Detroit Lions.

The team also announced that it waived fellow defensive lineman Genard Avery in a corresponding active 53-man roster move to make room for Lewis’s return—and elevated offensive guard Atonio Mafi from its practice squad for Sunday:

Lewis (elbow) was designated to return off injured reserve earlier this week, which provided him...
