The Indianapolis Colts are now left wondering what went wrong.
Despite a disappointing start to the season, the team still had a chance to control their own destiny at 6-6 and make the playoffs thanks to the woeful AFC South entering Sunday’s game.
This time, with starting quarterback Andrew Luck, at home, and facing dreadful Houston Texans starter Brock Osweiler, the Colts clearly had the upper hand.
Or so you would’ve thought.
Instead, the Colts were soundly beat in all facets of the game: offense, defense, and on special teams–not to mention coaching, as Colts fans saw the same problems that we’ve seen for the past 5 years–eventually falling 22-17 in a loss that barring a Christmas miracle will effectively end all playoff hopes in Indianapolis.
