The Colts franchise began in 1953 when they were the Baltimore Colts. While residing in Baltimore, they captured four NFL Championships and one Super Bowl victory, Super Bowl V. One of those championship games was played in 1958 when Hall of Fame QB Johnny Unitas led the team to an overtime victory defeating the New York Giants. That game would later be known to many as "The Greatest Game Ever Played."

It's probable that Pierre Garcon, Roy Hall and rookie Austin Collie have the best shots at playing time. But coach Jim Caldwell, who replaced the retired Tony Dungy in the offseason, said there is no front-runner yet.
New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick decided to keep the offensive unit out there in a fourth and two situation from their own 28 yard line with just over two minutes remaining. The call resulted in a short pass to Kevin Faulk that fell six inches short from the first down marker. From there Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts took over in just [...]
