Following a nail-biting home win against the Houston Texans, morale for Indianapolis Colts (1-2) fans may have improved slightly ahead of an international game in London against the Washington Commanders (1-2) this weekend on Sunday morning.
However, that number remains very low among the Horseshoe Faithful, as only 25% of Colts fans believe the franchise is actually headed in the right direction right now:
With Commanders starting quarterback Jayden Daniels already ruled out, and backup Marcus Mariota starting again in his place, this looks like a game the Colts need to win to keep their realistic AFC playoff hopes alive, still looking to dig their way out of an early 0-2 hole.
For what it’s worth, 57% of Colts fans believe the team will win Sunday morning in London:
A win could go a long way toward improving Colts fans’ confidence in the direction of the franchise as a whole and put Indianapolis in exactly .500 football again, with a more favorable schedule than their first three games.
That said, a victory in London would be huge though because the next matchup is in Pittsburgh, where the Colts haven’t won since November 9, 2008, so there’s no need for Indianapolis to dig itself into another hole.
