The Indianapolis Colts were riding high coming into the 2015 season. Sure, there was that blowout loss to the New England Patriots in the 2014 AFC Championship Game, but that was the past, and the future looked awfully bright in Indy.
A few months later, though, a dark cloud seems to have permanently set up camp over Lucas Oil Stadium.
As you probably know by now, the Colts were the team that tipped off the NFL and started the never-ending Deflategate saga. But did that end up coming back to bite Indianapolis?
Not much has gone right for the Colts this season, including quarterback Andrew Luck’s kidney laceration and ab tear, which will sideline him for two to six weeks. The Colts are still leading the AFC South, and a playoff bid seems likely despite their 4-5 record, but it’s hard to look past all that has gone wrong for them since blowing the whistle on the Patriots.
