NFL Power Rankings, Week 12: Eagles fall to Saints in embarrassing fashion
By Dan Parzych
11. Indianapolis Colts
How impressive have the Indianapolis Colts been since losing five of their first six games to start the 2018 season? Well, Sunday marked the fourth win in a row for Andrew Luck and company, as the Colts are officially back at .500 following their recent victory over the Tennessee Titans.
It’s difficult to explain why Luck is always so successful whenever he faces the Titans, but what’s even more amazing is how the former No. 1 pick is continuing to put together a MVP kind of season, which is incredible after last year. With Luck’s shoulder forcing him to miss all of 2017, nobody really knew what to expect from the Indianapolis quarterback this season or whether he would even be able to return to his normal level of play if he did manage to stay healthy.
By throwing at least three touchdowns for the seventh game in a row, Luck deserves to be in the conversation for MVP honors just like Patrick Mahomes II, Todd Gurley, and Drew Brees. And if he helps Indianapolis find a way to earn one of the playoff spots in the AFC down the road, it’s only going to build a stronger case for Luck when it comes to the award.
