A loss for the Indianapolis Colts isn’t the end of the world, but it still stings

6 turnovers sink Colts in 27-20 road loss to Steelers
Six turnovers will never cut it against an NFL opponent and the Indianapolis Colts found out the hard way in Sunday’s 27-20 road loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium.

Colts offense comes back down to Earth against Steelers
The Indianapolis Colts‘ offense had been historic, with the Steelers’ defense trending in the complete opposite direction.

Will the Ballard Era Colts finally be active at the NFL Trade Deadline?
Indianapolis, IN — Under general manager Chris Ballard, the Indianapolis Colts have historically avoided the mid-season headache that the NFL trade deadline brings.

So let’s breakdown some of the Colts […]
