The Colts got their first win of the 2026 season ...... just like I stated in the title.


I'll take an F Minus each and every week for a pretentious ritual of grading thread titles if the Colts win the games, which is all that I care about.

I 100% agree. And throw in the refs who were garbage once again only adds on to it.

I second that. DJ takes care of the ball, and it's total domination.

Plus, we haven’t beaten the Texans in over 3 years.

I foresee messiness.

31-27 Texans.

Well, I’m an idiot. I was wrong about pretty much everything.

But I’m glad I was.

Go Colts.

Jones is VERY loose with the ball and it’s extremely frustrating.

Especially on a day like today when the oline, particularly Jalen Travis, got worked pretty good.

We are also lucky the Texans went for that 4th down near the goal one instead of taking the points. That was a stupid move. And ultimately those points decided the game.

When did that happen? The only redzone trip they had where they didn't score a TD was the one where they kicked the FG.

Fortunately, there aren’t many teams that have the kind of pass rush ability that Houston brings in the table.
