The Indianapolis Colts limped into the bye week having just beaten the Atlanta Falcons in Week 10. Taking off like a juggernaut through the first eight games of the 2025 NFL season, the team has looked more like a version of the past few Colts' teams.
Indianapolis had been playing an aggressive, disciplined style of football that took them to the top of the NFL standings with a 7-1 record. This Colts team, this city, have been the talk of the league. And they still are, but now it's more about how poorly the team has played heading into the bye week.
