Their quarterback situation and never-stopping carousel have held them back more often than not, but it seems like they’re finally heading in the right direction.

That’s why their top priority right now is to keep him safe and build around him, according to GM Chris Ballard. Talking to the Indian ..read more

According to them, the game is too soft, quarterbacks are too protected, and it is too hard for defensive backs to defend opposing wide receivers, among other things. Those people now will have something new to complain about: the NFL’s new ban on hip-drop tackles. Former Indianapolis Colts star pass rusher Dwight Freeney said that if he were playing today, he would simply continue to perform hip-drop tackles and pay ..read more

(Photo by Justin Casterline/Getty Images)   For years, the Indianapolis Colts tried to play it safe at the quarterback position. They went with guys who had proven themselves in the league. Perhaps they had proved themselves so much that they didn’t even have much left in the tank. That’s why they decided to go in an entirely different direction this time, taking a leap of faith and swinging for the fences by drafting Anthony Richardson, the biggest wild card in last year’s draft. Richardson drew many concerns and praise. He’s a gifted athlete with the potential to be a disruptive two-way ..read more

(Photo by Emilee Chinn/Getty Images)   Andrew Luck’s NFL journey was cut short. One of the most entertaining players to watch during his playing days, the Stanford product shockingly decided to retire just days before the start of the season. Some Indianapolis Colts fans felt betrayed and even booed him, but he’s mostly beloved and respected. Also, it was easy to understand his decision, as the Colts had infamously allowed him to take sack after sack and big hit after big hit, and his body just couldn’t hold up anymore. Still, given his age and talent, some thought it was just a matter of ..read more

Fast forward to today, and we could be looking at one of the most promising and competitive groups in the league. While other teams look more ready than others, and the Houston Texans might be on a different tier right now, all four teams have legitimate potential stars at the quarterback position. With that in mind, NFL analyst Craig Carton claimed that people shouldn’t sleep on the Indianapolis Colts. Even though he didn’t play much last season, an ..read more

(Photo by Mitchell Leff/Getty Images)   Just around this time last year, the Indianapolis Colts made a rather surprising move. When most people had them taking Will Levis out of Kentucky, they pivoted and went with Anthony Richardson instead. The Florida standout had been one of the most — if not the most — polarizing prospects in the draft, and no one really knew what to expect from him. It didn’t take long before Richardson showcased his athleticism and potential as a two-way threat. Unfortunately, he missed most of his rookie campaign with injuries. Now, Richardson is looking forward t ..read more
