The Indianapolis Colts may be on their long-awaited bye week, but where do they fall in the NFL’s Week 14 power ranking roundup?
Coming off a last second win over the New England Patriots, the consensus has the Colts jumping up multiple spots in just about all of this week’s power rankings.
While sure, a win is going to do that, the jump up in these rankings by multiple spots despite being a 6-7 team is in part due to the play of Anthony Richardson.
Since returning from being benched, Richardson has been playing at a much higher level. His overall command of the offense has improved and he’s o ..read more

With the Indianapolis Colts on their bye week, let’s take a peek ahead to the 2025 offseason, and what their salary cap situation might look like.
According to Over the Cap, the Colts are set to have $49.765 million in cap space next offseason. While that sounds like a lot of room, that actually ranks as the 16th-most.
Now, of course, there are ways for the Colts to create space in order to have additional room. One is by releasing a veteran player whose cap hit is larger than their dead cap hit, which would save cap space.
An example of this would be Braden Smith, who if on the team has a cap ..read more

During the two week period where the Indianapolis Colts had benched Anthony Richardson, fellow quarterback Sam Ehlinger played a pivotal role in Richardson’s growth during that time as the backup.
In a recent article by The Athletic’s Jim Trotter, who spoke to Colts’ GM Chris Ballard about the benching, Ehlinger was said to be among the “strongest voices” in Richardson’s corner.
This included suggesting that Richardson dive into the book “Atomic Habits,” which as the title suggests, delves into the importance of building habits and how doing so can lead to significant changes with time.
“I rem ..read more

With the Indianapolis Colts on their bye week, let’s take a peek ahead to the 2025 offseason with the best players slated to become free agents.
For the Colts this past offseason, GM Chris Ballard opted not to utilize free agency all that much, with only Raekwon Davis and Joe Flacco as the only outside additions made to the roster. Instead, Ballard prioritized re-signing his own.
However, that approach and faith in his roster has left the Colts with some underperforming position groups.
With the growth we’ve seen from Richardson, the 2025 offseason with be crucial in helping the Colts go from ..read more

With still four games remaining in this season, obviously, a lot can change, but with the growth that we’ve seen from Anthony Richardson in recent weeks, this pending offseason will be crucial when it comes to getting the Colts from a fringe playoff team–which they’ve been the last two years–to making that be the expectation and not just a hope.
