They almost did it. They almost put up a fight. The Colts brought it within 7 at the start of the fourth quarter. But then they did what they always do; falter at the end of the game. This was a total team failure from top to bottom, save Andrew Luck.
The team was decimated by injuries coming into the game. Having that many backups in is something that they just couldn’t overcome. They also had more players get hurt during this game, so even more backups made their way into the game.
Luck has to be absolutely livid with the way his GM’s have acted over the years.
