The ties between the Cincinnati Bengals and Indianapolis Colts seem inexorable this season.
Most obvious is the fact that the Bengals' defense continues to be historically awful while new Colts defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo keeps on cookin' in Indy, even generating buzz as a head coach candidate.
Unfortunately for Anarumo, his job is about to get a whole lot tougher without the benefit of quality quarterback play.
Daniel Jones was enjoying a career resurgence as the Colts' QB until a fractured fibula caused him to regress some. Then, disaster truly struck on Sunday when Jones went down with a torn Achilles, which ends his 2025 campaign and puts Indianapolis' future in serious upheaval.
