A little over six weeks ago I was sitting in the bitter cold at Highmark Stadium outside of Buffalo, anticipating the start of the Colts vs. Bills game with my dad, a lifelong Bills fan. The Colts were riding a four-game win streak, but I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect, given that the Colts began the 2021 season 0-3 and were showing signs of struggle from the start. Mostly I was trying to avoid getting punched in the face by a member of Bills Mafia because I was, obviously, decked out in blue and white horseshoes.
Only six minutes into the first quarter running back Jonathan Taylor scored on a short run.
