At this point in the season, everyone's banged up and trying to peak at the right time. The last thing you want to do is come roaring out of the gate in September and experience a severe slump heading into the playoff push, but the Jacksonville Jaguars wouldn't know anything about that, right?
Unfortunately (depending on what side of the table you're on), the Indianapolis Colts appear to be experiencing such a trend. Recently, Cassandra Chesser of Horseshoe Heroes opined that the Colts faced two "brutal setbacks" before heading into their bye week. One of these setbacks was Daniel Jones' recent decline after starting the 2025 season as an early MVP favorite.
