The Indianapolis Colts didn’t get the season start they were looking for last Sunday in Jacksonville. National media picked the Colts as early AFC contenders and identified the Jaguars as arguably the most dysfunctional franchise in the league — one that would have strong odds to earn the top pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
Looking only at stats, one would wonder how the Colts managed to lose for the sixth straight time in Jacksonville. Of course the only numbers that matter on game day are the ones that show up on the scoreboard.
