Latest news and updates about the Colts
According to head coach Shane Steichen, Indianapolis Colts defensive tackle DeForest Buckner (neck) will play against his former team on Monday Night Football this week (via ESPN’s Adam Schefter). The Pro Bowl veteran defensive tackle has not played since Week 9 at the Pittsburgh Steelers, when he injured his neck and was placed on injured […]
Earlier this season, I wrote that Daniel Jones was playing himself into a massive new contract. He was on a one-year, $14 million deal and had completely transformed the Colts’ offense, turning them into one of the most efficient scoring units in the league. Based on the level he was playing at, I projected that […]
When the Seattle Seahawks beat the Indianapolis Colts, I said the game was largely lacking in big action moments. There was only one touchdown scored, one turnover on the Colts’ final play, and not a lot of explosive highlights on offense or defense to talk about. The Los Angeles Rams game made up for that […]
DeForest Buckner FULL GO at Colts practice! Time for Uncle Philip Rivers to step UP!
The stage is set. Monday Night Football in Indianapolis. Philip Rivers starts his second game for the Colts, and a 49ers win clinches a playoff berth. DeForest Buckner should be activated off IR, setting up an old friend scenario. Unfortunately, Charvarius Ward was placed on IR, so that reunion won’t happen. The 49ers are looking […]
The San Francisco 49ers are one win away from a playoff berth, which could come as early as this Monday against the Indianapolis Colts, placing them back in the postseason after a one-year hiatus. It’s been a much different year for the 49ers, who have dealt with major injuries on both sides of the ball, […]
Philip Rivers feels great, ready for week two, and to get three Colts wins!
The Indianapolis Colts are still alive in the playoff chase. If they win their next three games there is a really good chance they at least make the final wild card spot. Considering where things were to start the year, that is highly disappointing. Considering where things have been the last month, they’ll take it. […]
Lets start with the elephant in the room. The three remaining teams on the schedule, are a combined 29 – 13. Two of those teams have beaten the Colts in the last three weeks and the third team is from the strongest division in the league and has every reason to treat the game as […]
The recent return of Phillip Rivers to the Indianapolis Colts prompts consideration of which players might be pulled out of retirement to help other teams in the league. Given the dysfunction that the Cleveland Browns have had over the years, there aren’t many great players who have spent a large portion of their career dominating in Cleveland. […]
Indianapolis, IN — Indianapolis Colts second-year defensive end Laiatu Latu already has more sacks than he did as a rookie, poised to lead the team in sacks as they enter the final stretch of the regular season. Despite this progression on the surface, some fans and analysts seem to think that Latu will never take […]
Colts Run game MUST explode vs SF! IU Football rewards Haines, Shanahan! Pacers lose!
The Indianapolis Colts announced on Thursday that the team has initiated the 21-day practice window for quarterback Anthony Richardson, who’s been medically cleared for physical activities after fracturing his orbital bone and undergoing surgery, but remains on the team’s injured reserve for now. However, the only caveat being that Richardson is still suffering from some […]
Flashback to March 16, 2020. A few days after the San Francisco 49ers reached a five-year extension with Arik Armstead, the team traded DeForest Buckner to the Indianapolis Colts in exchange for a top-15 pick. The Colts made Buckner the second-highest-paid defensive tackle in the NFL behind Aaron Donald at the time. Buckner wanted Donald […]
Down the stretch they come. The 49ers’ final three-game stretch kicks off Monday night in Indianapolis as Philip Rivers tries to keep the Colts’ playoff chances alive. Given the struggles slowing down the run, Jonathan Taylor and the Colts’ rushing attack provide a concerning challenge for the 49ers’ run defense. On the other side of […]

The San Francisco 49ers are still firmly in the mix for a playoff spot, getting the chance to clinch a berth this weekend with a win over the Indianapolis Colts. But, that doesn’t mean we can’t look ahead and project to the 2026 offseason, which will almost assuredly be a game-changer for the 49ers. After […]
The Seattle Seahawks got into an unexpected street fight with a foe that many expected them to handle easily. On Sunday, the Indianapolis Colts, looking invigorated by the un-retirement of a former legend, in Phillip Rivers, came out with energy and came out swinging. They brandished a bit of physical play in the Emerald City […]
The Seattle Seahawks’ win over the Indianapolis Colts fits neatly into the category of games where the final score masks a lot of underlying issues. From an All-22 perspective, snap by snap, this was a win built more on competitiveness, defensive execution, and timely plays than on a coherent or efficient offensive performance. In classic […]
The San Francisco 49ers have a big game this weekend with the potential to clinch a playoff spot against the Indianapolis Colts, who are still vying for a playoff spot in the AFC with newly-minted 44-year-old quarterback Phillip Rivers. San Francisco has gotten on a four-game winning streak after failing to win consecutive games for […]
Colts defense was great Sunday – until the last drive! Lou Anarumo explains!
Was there any other option for the NFL to choose for the NFC Special Teams Player of the week than Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers? After Myers split the uprights six times on Sunday, including a 56-yard game-winning field goal, to set a franchise record and will the Seahawks past the Indianapolis Colts, you’d be […]
We’re still running off the joyful fumes of a touchdown-less victory over the Indianapolis Colts are we not? I wrote earlier about the struggles on offense being more tied to the line than the quarterback, and that conversation has been full of cheer. That sets us up beautifully for this: The Seattle Seahawks should drastically […]
The margin for error is gone. Another loss for the Indianapolis Colts in the 2025 season would mark the end. Things are looking dire, but not all hope is lost. They have tough games ahead of them, but they have the best possible games too. The schedule lines up perfectly with what they are trying […]
Philip Rivers should be thanked by Colts fans, not hated on! IU’s Memorial Stadium renovation coming! Pacers will improve – next season!
