14. Indianapolis Colts (11)

Is it officially time for the Indianapolis Colts to hit the panic button after losing to the Tennessee Titans on Sunday? Whether Colts fans want to hear this or not, the answer to this question is an easy yes.

Back in October, the Colts appeared to be in great shape to earn one of the playoff spots in the AFC, but Sunday’s loss to the Titans marked the fourth time in five games that Indianapolis finished on the losing end.

While the argument can be made the Colts would have been able to compete better if T.Y. Hilton were healthy enough to play, this excuse isn’t going to matter if Indianapolis ends up watching the playoffs from home in January.

Jacoby Brissett failing to do enough on offense will be one of the popular topics of discussion this week over how Indianapolis came up short against Tennessee at home, but the poor play in general during the fourth quarter deserves just as much blame.

Without question, the blocked field goal returned for a touchdown by the Titans was a huge momentum swing, and will be a play the Colts look back on that haunts them down the road if they miss out on the playoffs.
