The Indianapolis Colts have hit their lowest point of the season. They’ve lost three of their last four games after starting the season 7-1. They are now 8-4 and have a pivotal matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars on deck. The winner will own the top spot in the AFC South heading into Week 15, and the loser could very well find themselves in third if the Houston Texans pick up a win. This game is crucial for the Colts’ 2025 season, but it also means much more

The Colts haven’t beaten the Jaguars in Jacksonville since 2014. It is truly one of the most embarrassing ongoing streaks in the NFL today. The team already broke their Week 1 drought with their victory over the Miami Dolphins this season, and a win over the Jaguars would end two curses that have been dark clouds over the franchise since 2014. The last one remaining would be their AFC South championship drought, which also dates back to 2014. 

A look into the year 2014

Before the Colts and Jaguars kick off, I think it’s essential to put into perspective just how long it’s been since the team last won in Jacksonville. The Colts last won there on September 21, 2014.
