Hard times have fallen upon the Indianapolis Colts. With Peyton Manning running the offense, a trip to the playoffs was a foregone conclusion. Some might argue that it even brought a bit of complacency to the organization. Talk of Manning missing the season swirl, and the Colts head into week two underdogs to the Cleveland Browns.
