Colts' Losing Streak Hits 309 Days After Week 1 Loss to Ravens

A screen recording of ColtsFanCole's postgame audio-chat show, episode 234, pulled up

The Colts opened the 2026 season the same way they closed 2025: losing. A 41-23 beatdown at home against the Ravens on September 13 extended a winless streak that, as of Sunday night, sat at 309 days. Barstool Gambling did the math and added the gut punch that goes with it.

It has now been 309 days since the Indianapolis Colts last won a football game They do not own their 2027 first-round draft pick

That 2027 first-round pick line isn't a joke, either. Indianapolis shipped its 2026 and 2027 first-rounders to the Jets in November for cornerback Sauce Gardner and receiver Adonai Mitchell, betting on an 8-2 team that looked like a real Super Bowl contender at the time. The bet blew up. Daniel Jones broke a fibula, then tore his Achilles in Week 14 against Jacksonville, and the Colts lost 7 straight to finish the year, capping one of the strangest collapses the NFL has seen.

Jones made his return from that Achilles injury Sunday, going 19-for-31 for 166 yards with a touchdown and an interception. It wasn't enough. Jonathan Taylor ran for 98 yards and 2 scores, but Derrick Henry and the Ravens answered with 144 yards and 3 touchdowns on the ground, and Baltimore scored on 4 of 5 drives after Indianapolis's opening touchdown to blow the game open.

Barstool's crowd wasted no time turning the loss into a running bit. Phill needled the Colts' offseason, no picks left and Jones back under center, joking that only the Browns are worse off right now.

Let’s see how Colts fans are doing after losing their first game

That screenshot is the joke itself — a fan-run postgame listening room that's apparently still grinding through episode 234 of a season that keeps giving it nothing good to talk about. Pardon My Meme piled on from the other side of the internet's usual insult-graphic machine, posting a reaction clip and noting he's rarely the one getting roasted instead of doing the roasting.

None of this fixes anything for Indianapolis, which is now staring down a season where the quarterback is coming off a torn Achilles, the cupboard is bare on premium draft capital through 2027, and the losing streak just crossed the 10-month mark with 16 games left to snap it.
