The Indianapolis Colts advanced to the Divisional round of the playoffs after defeating the division winning Houston Texans 21-7 in the first round of the playoffs. The Colts’ hot streak has been more than impressive, rattling off 10 wins out of their last 11 games to turn a 1-5 start. As the year progressed, the team slowly transitioned from quarterback Andrew Luck having to carry the team to a bully ball squad led by a strong run game and resilient defense.
One of the main benefactors of this new mentality by the Colts is running back Marlon Mack.
