Ten weeks into the NFL season, the Indianapolis Colts were the surprise of the league.

After a 31-25 win over the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin on Nov. 9, the Colts were 8-2, tied for the most wins in the AFC, and had a legitimate chance to be the No. 1 seed in the conference headed into the playoffs.

But just one month later, Indianapolis is 8-5, loser of three straight and owner of a murky future after a risky trade and a catastrophic injury.

Things started going downhill with a losing streak that included two close defeats.

The Colts had a 20-9 fourth-quarter lead on the road against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12, only to give up the final 14 points of the game and lose in overtime. The next week, Indianapolis was tied 13-13 with the Houston Texans in the fourth before losing 20-16.
