## Resource

The Colts are on the brink of ending their five-year playoff drought, but it all hinges on Daniel Jones’s health and consistency. After a promising 8-2 start last season, they collapsed with a seven-game skid, leaving them at 8-9. Analysts see promise, but coach Shane Steichen’s track record—and the team’s revolving quarterback carousel since 2023—raise doubts. Jones showed elite efficiency last year; if he returns fully from his Achilles injury, he could be the catalyst Steichen needs. With a solid offensive line, a capable running game, and a defense with playmakers, Indianapolis has the pieces. But this season is make-or-break: win, and they’re back in the postseason; lose, and changes are coming. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
