2017 NFL Power Rankings Week 8: Rams climb after shutting out Cardinals in London
By Dan Parzych
30. Indianapolis Colts (30)
So much for the Indianapolis Colts taking advantage of the Jacksonville Jaguars playing without Leonard Fournette as this turned out to be one of the most embarrassing performances of the 2017 season for Chuck Pagano’s team. When seeing how competitive this team has been over the last few weeks against teams like the Seattle Seahawks and Tennessee Titans, the Colts should have been able to at least put up a better performance against the Jaguars instead of being shutout.
With the way things are turning out for Indianapolis, the team needs to strongly consider whether it’s even worth bringing Andrew Luck this season is even worth it when looking at how their season is turning out. Even if Luck managed to return and suit up at some point, there’s no telling what kind of shape the Colts quarterback will be in when considering how long he’s been forced to watch from the sidelines.
Up next, Indianapolis hits the road for a tough matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals before another tough showdown away from home against the Houston Texans. In other words, it could be a few weeks before the Colts are even close to winning a football game, which is sadly a popular theme for this team in 2017.
