Twice in nine Chris Ballard seasons have the Indianapolis Colts made the playoffs. In none of those years has the team won the AFC South. That hasn't happened since 2014. Every other team in the division has taken the division title at least twice.
In other words, things need to change, and they appeared to be changing through the first half of the 2025 season. Head coach Shane Steichen's team was 7-1 before injuries hit, and the competition got tougher. Now, after the Tennessee Titans move on Tuesday, the AFC South competition just got tougher for the foreseeable future.
