The Indianapolis Colts are trying to do something the team hasn’t accomplished since 2009 — the same season as their most recent Super Bowl trip. The Colts last started 2-0 a decade and a half ago. They have an opportunity to repeat that feat when they face the Denver Broncos in Week 2.
The Broncos will be a much tougher test than the Miami Dolphins, whom Indianapolis routed in the season opener. Specifically, the Denver defense is one of the best units in the NFL. Last season, the Broncos had the third-best scoring defense and, after only allowing 133 total yards in Week 1, they look every bit as good this year.
