The Colts are 0-10-1 in their last 11 season-openers since 2014.

Their last season-opening win came in 2013, when Andrew Luck led the team to a come-from behind, 21-17 win over the Oakland Raiders in Week 1 ...... yes, the Oakland Raiders.

The only time in the last 11 seasons in which the Colts did not lose their first game was when they battled to a 20-20 tie with the Texans, in 2022.


There were 73 players that saw game action for the 2013 Colts. The last 2 active players in the NFL from that 2013 Colts team were Lawrence Guy, who he was released by the Bengals in November of 2024, and Matt Overton, who became a free agent at the end of the 2024 season. One player from the 2013 team has died (Vontae Davis.)

So here's to hoping that the 2025 Colts finally win their first game of the season in September ...... I know that it's asking a lot, but I've seen stranger things happen.

With the Colts finally winning a game on Opening Day in 2025, we're all hoping that this one stays in the rear-view mirror.
