Untested, unproven D-line: Colts’ biggest gamble of 2015

Say this much for the Indianapolis Colts and their fickle relationship with their failing defensive line: It wasn’t working, so they blew it up.

It wasn’t good enough, not even close, not after 45-7 in the rain in Foxborough, not after they allowed 657 rushing yards — a number owner Jim Irsay knows cold — in their last three meetings against you-know-who, not after Jonas Gray and LeGarrette Blount turned them into tackling dummies each and every time they lined up against the New England Patriots.

Out with the old, in with the new. Cory Redding wasn’t brought back.
