Yesterday, we focused on the positive with the top 10 reasons why Colts fans should be thank Ryan Grigson. The list reminded all of us of some strong moves that led the Colts to three straight 11-5 records and increasingly successful trips to the playoffs.

There will quite obviously be a companion list of reasons that Indianapolis Colts fans should demand general manager Ryan Grigson be replaced, but today’s list is a look at the positive side of the ledger – which features a considerable list of successes.
