This is the Anthony Richardson Colts’ fans expected to see following an impressive initial rookie debut. Has he arrived?

Per the Ed Block Courage Award Foundation:

“Each year the Ed Block Courage Awards honors those National Football League players who exemplify commitments to the principles of sportsmanship and courage. The Courage Award has become...

And we are off for Week 15 of NFL football, this time, as will probably be the case plenty of times for the remainder of the season, with two teams that are almost out of the playoffs facing each other.

The Niners easily won their last game against the Bears, led by a stellar performance from third string running back Isaac Guerendo, who had 2 touchdowns and close to 150 total yards, and a...

“The guys told me to take some time off, but the next day (after the Patriots game) I hit coach Shane [Steichen] up,” Richardson said.

The Indianapolis Colts announced on Wednesday that both starting center Ryan Kelly and rookie linebacker Jaylon Carlies have been officially designated to return to practice:

That means that the 21-day practice window has officially opened for both players to practice with their Colts teammates, remaining on injured reserve, and they can either be activated or revert to essentially season-ending injured reserve by the end of its closure.

Because of early season struggles, the Colts have zero margin for error.

Here we go again.

The Indianapolis Colts have been following this script for so many years. Start the season out slowly and then turn on the jets to have a shot at the postseason. These self-inflicted wounds create an incredible highwire balancing act that leaves zero margin for error. One loss out of the last four games would surely spell doom and the end of any postseason aspirations.

When you are below .500 with four games to go and you have experienced a three game losing streak at...

The Colts continued their 2024 season with a well deserved break on their bye week. The bye week couldn’t have come at a better time for a Colts team that was being hit by the injury bug at several important positions.
