I understand the people who want to say the Colts Defense is elite. They’re looking at the numbers, and it shows the Colts rank 4th best. And I don’t doubt they are a solid defense.
But like the Patriots Defense last year, I simply don’t believe the Colts Defense is what they are cracked up to be in the rankings.
Prior to playing the Titans last week, the number of top-15 pass offenses the Colts Defense has faced was…. ZERO.
Looking back on their season, sure, they dominated the Jets and the Bears.
