The past four seasons, including this one, have ended in major disappointment for the fanbase. To understand where we are right now as a franchise first we have to look at how the past brought us to this position.
2021: After a playoff appearance in 2020, the Colts traded for quarterback Carson Wentz. Even though there were some injury issues and boneheaded plays, the team was still 9-6 going into the final two games of the year, needing just a single win to once again make it to the playoffs. The first of the two was at home against the Raiders, tough out, but definitely one the Colts could have won.
