Jonathan Taylor's record-setting rushing day leads Colts to playoffs

INDIANAPOLIS -- The Colts are going back to the playoffs.

But they didn't make it on themselves on getting there, as they didn't put the Jacksonville Jaguars away until there was less than five minutes remaining on a day when rookie running back Jonathan Taylor set a team-rushing record in their 28-14 victory.

This will be just the second playoff appearance for the Colts since 2014, when they reached the AFC Championship Game.

As good as it feels to finish with an 11-5 record, their best since 2014, the Colts are heading into the postseason not as a team that should strike fear into contenders like Kansas City or Buffalo, but more like a team that has issues that need to be resolved.
