26. Indianapolis Colts (3-5)

The Colts are a hard team to figure out.  This much is known, they are going nowhere in a hurry. They’ve blown leads and comeback from blown leads.

Last week in a 30-14 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, the Colts are also left wondering what’s next? They allowed Chiefs backup quarterback Nick Foles to throw a couple of touchdowns on them.

The Colts have a tough schedule ahead of them over the next three weeks.  They go on the road to face the Green Bay Packers and then host the Tennessee Titans and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

It can’t be all about quarterback Andrew Luck.  His offensive line is poor and they have no running game.  It would also help if guys like receiver T.Y. Hilton stayed healthy.  Hilton is quite the playmaker and has shown that in 2016.

Right now it looks like the Colts are an easy out.  Even the Jets in four weeks may be licking their chops.
