Indianapolis Colts fans confidence is nearly sky high for the AFC’s leading team, who many expected to be a bottom feeder entering the 2025 campaign. There’s good reason too as the Colts are currently 6-1.
Specifically, 99% of Colts fans are now confident that the team is headed in the right direction, which it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know is a nearly pristine percentage.
In particular, the Colts now have a solidifying veteran presence at starting quarterback, which coupled with the big rookie addition at tight end, has paid dividends. Under new defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo, the Colts defense has also improved dramatically—having its own key additions in the Colts secondary this past offseason.
Colts head coach Shane Steichen has also been on a heater with his play-calling offensively, seemingly in complete synch with his quarterback, star running back Jonathan Taylor, and an Indy offensive line that is manhandling its opponents up front. The Colts are one of the most prolific offenses in league history right now.
As such, 98% of Colts fans believe they’ll do what they haven’t done since 2014, which is finally win the AFC South again.
Once the toast of the division, the Colts have the longest division title drought of any of their AFC South rivals, and each of their rivals has won the division at least twice since the Colts last won it over a decade ago.
What does that mean for hoisting an elusive Lombardi Trophy?
Well, that same optimism isn’t quite as high, as only 37% of Colts fans believe that Indianapolis will become World Champions again, which they haven’t done since 2006. Still, even having that percentage that high is shocking, given that many Colts fans realistically felt this was closer to a Top 5 draft pick than serious contender.
