Most of the juicy offseason moves are now in the rear-view mirror, but some big-name players remain unsigned. One of the most notable players […]

Indianapolis Colts linebacker Darius Leonard is underrated. Colts fans understand how talented he is, but Madden 23 gave him just a 90 overall. Granted, a 90 is not bad. But Leonard is arguably the best linebacker in the NFL. 49ers linebacker Fred Warner also shared his top 10 linebackers in the NFL right now. Warner […]

Many have the Indianapolis Colts pegged as the favorites in the AFC South. We’ll see how it plays out though, as the Tennessee Titans still have a talented roster without AJ Brown.

2021 was a year of change in the NFL. Since 1978, the league had been accustomed to 16 regular-season contests per team, and since 1990, 12 available postseason spots was the norm.

The Indianapolis Colts seemed destined for the playoffs in 2021 until their season collapsed down the stretch.

Billick remembers Siragusa […]

During his run with the Atlanta Falcons, Matt Ryan did not necessarily have a consistent running game that he could lean on. Just last season, the Falcons ranked at 31st in rushing yards per game with an 85.4 average. But now with the Indianapolis Colts, the veteran quarterback is looking ahead to having a balanced […]

If there is one player in the NFL who knows just what Indianapolis Colts quarterback Matt Ryan has gone through over the past months, it is Matthew Stafford.

It’s been an interesting offseason for the Indianapolis Colts. They’ve made subtle moves to improve the roster but it’s still not clear whether or not they have a team equipped to win the AFC South.

Many believe the Indianapolis Colts are the favorites in the AFC South this year and for good reason. After acquiring Matt Ryan via trade, the franchise is making its third attempt at utilizing a veteran quarterback to lead the way. Although Ryan is a shell of his former self, he still has some juice left […]

Although the Carson Wentz blockbuster trade happened months ago, the Indianapolis Colts are working to shake off the bad breakup and work with new quarterback Matt Ryan.

Even as the Indianapolis Colts have completed just three days from their OTAs schedule, wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is already quite a fan of Matt Ryan.

The Indianapolis Colts have struggled to find a franchise quarterback ever since the shocking retirement of Andrew Luck. They’ve gone through a slew of guys since, from the likes of Jacoby Brissett to Philip Rivers to more recently, Carson Wentz. This offseason, they brought in former MVP Matt Ryan from the Falcons. More recently, the […]

The Indianapolis Colts have made numerous moves in the hopes of becoming a playoff contender once again. With a strong defense coupled with a decent offense, they’ll have a legitimate shot in the upcoming season. However, they could use a boost from their prospects to get them over the hump to win the AFC South […]

The Indianapolis Colts have officially reshaped their whole quarterback room by signing Nick Foles to be the backup to Matt Ryan. In a move that certainly (albeit, probably indirectly) shows they are through with Carson Wentz, the Colts signed the former Super Bowl MVP to provide depth behind their new star quarterback and reunite him […]

One of the most iconic Super Bowl victories of all time, the Philadelphia Eagles’ toppling of the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LII was in large part thanks to Nick Foles. The 2012 third-round pick became the Eagles’ starter late in the season and navigated the team to a championship, earning the Super Bowl […]

Even after the Indianapolis Colts traded for one-time NFL MVP winner Matt Ryan earlier in the offseason, they could be on the verge of hauling in another former MVP.

The Indianapolis Colts are ready to get to work and try to make it back to the playoffs. However, T.Y. Hilton is still a free agent and there is no strong belief that the franchise’s lead wide receiver will be back this offseason. He may not be back at all, for any team. Hilton wants […]

Carson Wentz wasn’t exactly awful during his one-year stint with the Indianapolis Colts. His statistics were certainly respectable and if it wasn’t for that last game of the season where they blew the chance to make the playoffs, Wentz could still be in Indy. But, that is not the reality. Colts GM Jim Irsay even […]

The Indianapolis Colts had a disappointing 9-8 season in 2021 which led them to narrowly missing the playoffs. The frustrating finish led to a great deal of change this offseason.

The Indianapolis Colts possess perhaps the NFL’s best running back in Jonathan Taylor, who led the league in both rushing yards and touchdowns in a career year.

The end of the Indianapolis Colts’ 2021 season was painful for the franchise. They lost out on the chance to make the playoffs at the hands of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Even with Matt Ryan on the roster, the Indianapolis Colts are still looking to add to the quarterback position on their roster.
