As 2025 draws to a close, where do the Colts go from here?

What a season 2025 was for the Indianapolis Colts. To call it a roller coaster would be a lie because those have ups and downs scattered throughout. The Colts literally made the climb to the first major hill and then plummeted down. The ride was over as quickly as it had begun. This was a […]
