The Indianapolis Colts had a roller-coaster ride of a 2018-19 campaign, to say the least.
They started out 1-5 on the season and looked dead in the water, primed for another top draft pick. However, the Colts then won nine of their last 10 games, including a winner-take-all matchup against the Tennessee Titans in Week 17.
Indianapolis then proceeded to take down the AFC South-champion Houston Texas in the Wild Card Round of the playoffs and were actually a trendy upset pick against the Kansas City Chiefs in the Divisional Round.
However, the Chiefs routed the Colts by a score of 31-13, putting an end to what was truly an incredible season in Indianapolis, one that Colts quarterback Andrew Luck was glad to be a part of, especially considering the fact that he missed the entire 2017 campaign due to shoulder issues:
“It's been a rewarding season in many ways,” Luck said, according to Mike Wells of ESPN.com. “This is not the end that anybody in that locker room wanted. We wanted to go 1-0 this week and continue on this journey. But I'm very thankful I could play football, thankful to be in a locker room, to run on the field and throw it to my friends. It was a rewarding season, a fulfilling season. I think I improved as a quarterback. And I know I have a lot more improving to do.”
Luck had a rather inauspicious performance in the loss to the Chiefs, completing just 19 of his 36 passes for 201 yards and a touchdown, but he had a terrific season, finishing with 4,593 yards, 39 touchdowns, and 15 interceptions.
