Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down from Colts’ Week 1 loss against Seahawks

As we did throughout there preseason here on Stampede Blue, it’s time for our first regular season edition of Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down. It sure was an ugly 28-16 loss for the Colts in their opener, dropping their eighth straight to begin a new season.

What stood out, the good and the bad? We’ll cover the bases here, so let’s dive right into it!

Thumbs Up: Carson Wentz
