Here is the bad part: The Indianapolis Colts are now 8-6, having lost five of their last six games, and are on the verge of the most epic collapse in the NFL in a decade. Injuries certainly played a part, but a regression to the mean of quality play did too.
Here is the good part: The Colts, from general manager Chris Ballard all the way down, won't give up or stop trying to win games. Doing so won't be easy, though. Indy still has to play the San Francisco 49ers, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Houston Texans. All good teams.
