Let’s face it, the Colts season ended with Griff Whalen’s fumble during the last gasp drive late in the fourth quarter that handed the Houston Texans a win last Sunday and the AFC South crown for 2015. There are still reasons to watch the final two games for the Colts against two of the worst […]
The tough part of a beautiful fan-friendly event like the Crossroads Classic is that two really good teams are guaranteed to leave Bankers Life Fieldhouse as losers.
