The Colts and quarterback Carson Wentz fell flat on their faces in a stunning 26-11 loss at TIAA Bank Field on Sunday. In doing so, the organization has to question its entire approach after it missed the playoffs with Wentz leading the way.
"It's hard to put your finger on it," Wentz said of the Colts' offensive performance after he threw for only 185 yards in the season-defining loss.
