2018 was a season full of ups and downs. The season started off slow as the Colts got off to a 1-5 start. Then they got hot and finished the year at 10-6 and won a playoff game in Houston. The experience of that turbulence will be valuable to them this season.
The Colts were, and still are, one of the youngest teams in the league. To go through what they did last year was a valuable tool for them in their maturation as a team. Teams have to learn to win before they can do it on a bigger stage.
