1. This team has resiliency

The first thing we learned about the team is that they are resilient. They were faced with a big comeback from their opponent and were still able to get the job done. The defense was a big issue all game long, but they came up at the end when they needed to.

Having a defense like that will be key for the rest of the season. They need to be able to play better for the entire game, but forcing that fumble at the end is a big deal. That play sealed the win and allowed the Colts to win.

Resiliency is a quality all good teams have. They find ways to win even when they aren’t playing their best football. The Colts did that on Sunday. Now the question is whether they can do that for the rest of the season, or if they even need to.
