Indianapolis Colts History
Publish Date : 10/29/2007 11:37:00 PM   Source : Sports News Onlypunjab.com

The Indianapolis Colts are a professional American football team that is based in Indianapolis Indiana in the United States. They are the reigning National Football League (NFL) champions since winning Superbowl XLI on Feb. 4th in 2007.

Indianapolis Colts are also known as 'The Horseshoes' and their team colors are Speed Blue and White. The Colts resettled from Baltimore in th year of 1984 and started living in Indianapolis winning 90 of 228 games through the 1997 season. The figure also includes their 5 playoff games. The Indianapolis Colts Football team is the only the second in league history to win 12 games or more in four consecutive seasons. However, this happened since Jim Irsay assumed control of the franchise in the year of 1998. Its franchise history starts from The AAFC Baltimore Colts in 1940s

Since the day the team was formed, they have been struggling a lot in the game of football and they have won many important titles. The newly minted Indianapolis Colts struggled a lot on the field with 4-12, 5-11 and 3-13 records during its first three seasons. The latter, during the year of 1986, it began 0-13. The team was depressed and they replaced Rod Dowhower with former Patriots head coach Ron Meyer. This turned to be wise decision as the Colts responded by winning the final three games under his coaching.

In the 2006 season, the Colts lost three of the four games but before that, the Indianapolis Colts were the first team in NFL history to begin two consecutive season having won nine games. The colts finished the season with 12-4 record marking their fifth consecutive season with 10 victories or more.

Another most noticeable one was when The Colts defeated the Chicago Bears (29-17) on February 4, 2007 in Dolphin Stadium. The Indianapolis Colts team became the first 'dome team' to win Super Bowl in an outdoor stadium and they are the first to win in the rain.

The Indianapolis Colts are one of those few teams that has kept its logo and uniforms basically same since the team's debut in the year of 1953. As they are popularly known, the blue color logo of horseshoe is embossed on the white helmet. The blue jerseys have white shoulder strips and the white jerseys have blue ones. The pant that a player wears is white with blue strips along the sides.

The Indianapolis Colts had some noticeable players who performed their best. Some of those players include Raul Allegre, Ken Dilger, Rohn Stark, Marshall Faulk, Jeff George, Chip Banks and many more. The team is very famous for their game plans and their passion towards the sports. However, no Colt has won the NFL Defensive Player of the Year Award.

American football team, Indianapolis Colts has its own flagship stations. Under the new contract they have selected WIBC 1070AM. Those games which are not shown on national television can be seen locally on WTTV-4.
