For the past four seasons, the Colts have routinely been let down by the efforts of their defense. They can shut down inferior opponents, but struggle against competent quarterbacks.
Speaking at the NFL Scouting Combine on Thursday, GM Ryan Grigson talked about the focus of the team this offseason. He acknowledged the work that needs to be done on this side of the ball.
“Now I feel like we need to build that defense,” Grigson said. “I feel like we have a lot of really good pieces on offense.”
He certainly isn’t wrong. The offense was heavily focused on in the early years of Grigson’s tenure in Indianapolis.
