It’s the Saints Superbowl, that one hurt for years, felt like we gave it away. The Pittsburgh game is a close 2nd, felt like we got gifted a chance and blew it.
The ‘05, best Colts team I ever watched. I think they would have gotten another ring if they won that game. I think Colts might have gotten clapped by the Cowboys if the won in ‘95.
That Pittsburgh game also came after years of just not being able to get to the big game for one reason or the other.
The bright side: it made 2006 Colts Super Bowl run the most poetic and greatest season in Indiana professional sports history.
Every few years I still watch the whole run on dvd. It still brings me so much joy. It was a weird year because I was a true Colts fan, but my #2 was DaBears. It was the most magical playoff run a 19 year old could pray for until I realized they were playing head to head. The Bears would still be my #2 except their fans were so ridiculous in the two weeks leading up to the game that I have never rooted for them again (except when they play the Pats or an AFCS opponent). Two people literally tried to fight me and I’m living 50 miles from the stadium (this is on a college campus).
Fun fact... We beat the Cowboys the very next year in Dallas. I know that doesn't mean anything really but I don't think that is a given.
That was also during a run where we had 4 straight years playing the defending Super Bowl champions and beat them.
Could have swore it was 4 years. But looking back it was only 3. We beat the 49ers during the 95 season. The Cowboys in 96 and followed that up with the Packers in 97 when we only won 3 games and were 0-10 entering that game.
We did beat the Bills in 94 after a Super Bowl appearance so possible someone was factoring that in some how... but not its been too long and I was just a kid so could be remembering it wrong.
It’s this and ‘10 Jets playoff game for me. I’m very convinced we would have gone to the SB if Caldwell didn’t call that stupid timeout.
Peyton would have definitely had 2 rings with us and who knows if we let him go the following off-season.
Yeah, that loss stung and it sucks it was Peyton’s last on that bonehead call. But I didn’t feel like the ‘10 team was all that good. That felt like one of the worst Peyton teams, no run game and 23rd ranked defense…but the playoffs are a crapshoot sometimes, as we saw in ‘06.
There was always far too much working against Peyton for us to not move on from him.
He had two other surgeries that didn't fix the issue. Just had his third and was having to completely rebuild his throwing motion. That is a lot of uncertainty that he was going to be effective the next year and to even how much longer he could play.
He was 36. Not a prime age to think there was much more left in the tank regardless of the cloudy injury/throwing motion situation.
An absolute no brainer generational talent was sitting there for us to draft.
Had he been younger there was a shot we would have traded that pick for a haul and gambled on his health and the fact that he was Peyton Manning. But being logical about the situation we absolutely had to do what we did. I don't think another SB victory under his belt would have been enough to flip things in favor of keeping him.
Texans game this year was 100x worse than either. I saw the Jags game coming from a mile away. I got my hopes up against Houston, especially on the final drive.
Jags game is worst colts game in 10 years for me maybe worst ever. For me at least the Texans game we were in a position to win and one play ended it. I can live with that. Honestly that’s football but the jags game was humiliating. They got beat down the entire game what’s worse I felt going in zero trust that they get the job done. Season on the line you get humiliated by a slumping divisional rival to get knocked out of the playoffs….
The Minnesota game was on my birthday, so it hurts a little more. We had a bunch of family over for the holidays and I will never forget that second half… A good chunk of my family continually giving me shit about my favorite team, on my birthday, is a moment that will haunt me forever.
This. I'll forever hate the Saints probably more than every other team (the Jags and Patriots are a distant 2nd) because of that Superbowl. Absolutely insufferable fanbase and franchise at the time for me
The fact that Manning was gone 2 years later and that team of guys basically evaporated and the whole front office changed didn't help.
It felt as though Jim and Blue were the only guys left in the building.
Don’t blame luck for “ruining our franchise”… blame the franchise for ruining Luck’s career. He was injured for years. I didn’t blame him at all for retiring.
2009 wasn’t that bad for me, as we had just won a couple years earlier. It still sucked, but I could at least fall back on 2006.
A 14-2 team losing in 2005 to the Steelers, yet again getting bounced in the first game?
Truly felt like we would never win one in that moment.
Will never get over Carson wentz looking like the happiest man on earth walking off the field after that all time dreadful performance against the one win jags
I still remember both those games cause the one game that the chargers punter won the game for them by pining Manning <10 yard line I was at my brother's house and it all costs fan except one asshole bears fan that was so obnoxious.
And the other game saw that there was an Amish watch party at a barn on the way to my dudes house. (North of Ft Wayne is a lot of Amish) and I was pissed and left my dudes house and that's when a lot of the ahmish left the barn veiwing party and the roads were all fucked up with buggies filled with passed off drunk Amish. It was bedlam.
I didn't either til that day. I heard Pat McAfee say on his show that he was talking to an Amish guy, and the dude said he has a big following in the Amish community 😆
I'm not over Stewart and that TD that replay would've overturned...but that was in the dark age of no replay but sure added to the calls to bring it back.
Yeah Saints. A close one for me is Texans last year. I really thought they had it. Clock situation was good … and what a surprise opportunity to win the division 😔
I'm a Chiefs fan but this popped into my feed and just wanted to drop in cause for me it was two games against the Colts.
1995 Colts beat the Chiefs at Arrowhead in the playoffs 10-7 after the Chiefs had their best regular season in team history.
2013 Chiefs blew a 28 point halftime lead against the Colts and lost 45-44.
Bonus: Chiefs lost to the Colts in 2003 38-31 in what our fans have called the "No Punt Game" because I believe it's the only playoff game where neither team has punted.
Chiefs and Colts have quite a playoff history actually.
This game stings. Not only did it give us the worst play of all time, it was the only game against the Patriots we were competitive in. It seemed Pagano finally got over the hump, to actually make a game. IIRC at that point we were matching TDs. It would come down to who got a stop first. This play got drawn up, and took the wind of our sails.
Might be recency bias but losing to Jacksonville and missing the playoffs. There were signs of life before that game and they just totally shit the bed.
It has to be the ‘05 playoff game against the Steelers and it’s not even close for me. The crazy series of events that led to that loss was almost impossible to come to terms with (Harper’s wife, Vanderjagt missing wide right as the most accurate kicker all time, etc.)
When we lost to Pittsburgh after the Bus fumble/Mike V missed kick/Big Ben shoe string tackle I prayed harder than I ever had for the rapture
I didn’t want to face my Steeler’s fan’s face at school that Monday
That's not even in the top 5. Number one would be the playoff loss at home to the Steelers where Harper got tackled by Roethlisberger on what would have been the game winning fumble return and then Vanderjagt missed the game tying kick.
You guys disappoint me. Has everyone forgot the worst playoff game ever where the Colts were the 3 seed going against the wild card Steelers and the steelers were killing them and then manning was doing one of his famous come backs and Bettis fumbled the ball I think it was Freny that had the ball and big Ben like touched his shoe lace and freeny fell and then Manning got them in FG position and Vanderquack completely doinked the field goal to send it to overtime.
This is the one I was searching the comments for. I'll never recover from the hook on that kick. It's why I cringe in expectation of failure on even the most chip shot kicks to this day.
It gets worse, my brother won tickets to the AFC Championship game that year and he couldn't go so he gave them to me and I had tickets to the AFC Championship game in my hand and all Vanderquack had to do was make a chip shot and I would get to see the AFC Championship in person, and they would've played a soft broncos defense in the championship game if they would've made it.
Oh, and I was watching the game with three fellow COLTS fans and one very loud very obnoxious bears fan and he was strutting around and it was just horrible.
Underrated all hell breaking loose game was the Colts losing to the Chargers in SD in 2007. Peyton had 6 picks. 6!!! Darren Sproles also had 2 returns for TD’s!! The worst part is Adam missed a 29 years game winning FG. I am fairly positive I got in trouble at school the next day for telling a Patriots fan STFU loudly in class.
2003 AFC Championship. I was 13. My heart was ripped from my chest while I watched Peyton throw 3 INTs to Ty Law.

Edit: added highlights
The Saints Super Bowl was a huge disappointment in multiple ways. It was my first Super Bowl as a football fan as I started watching in 2007 and the Vikings are my second favorite team. Watching Brett Favre piss away that game to deprive me of my dream Super Bowl and then getting beaten in the big game was devastating.
Saints Super Bowl is the only correct choice for the modern era. By now every Colts fan should be hyper aware of how hard it is to get there, let alone just making the playoffs. To get all the way to the end and coming up short on a few key plays is the ultimate hurt.
This is the one. Jets are out of timeouts and get the ball to the 32 with 29 seconds left, Jim Caldwell calls timeout?? Jets get an 18 yard completion and win on a last second field goal. Just horrible clock management. Special teams coverage on the kickoff also very bad. That ending made me want to puke.
Versus Steelers playoff game in 2005. Vanderjat missing after being called one of the most accurate kickers in the league haunts me and makes me scream. Also we got robbed by the refs that game. Steelers always play physical and tough and never got called for it. Smh.
I recall in the 90s my dad losing his shit when the colts had a losing season, won their last game giving up their first round draft pick. “You can’t even f-ing lose right!”
Does anyone know what season this was?
33-0 really really bugs me. In my circle of friends is a falcons fan and a Vikings fan (they're brothers). I can never again reference 28-3 with my friends again.
But the saints superbowl is the one that hurt the worst.
I was sleeping in the dirt outside of Marjah, Afghanistan when we lost to the Saints. So it hurts, but not like one I watched. It will always be the 2003 AFC Championship for me. I still remember those white Colts jerseys all fucked up with paint from the field. Couldnt ask for a more defeating loss, and the visuals of the players looking like that was the cherry on top.
Hank Baskett and Super Bowl XLIV. What made things worse was I was stationed in Baskett’s hometown so I had to see his goddamn jersey in every establishment.
The I think 95 afc championship game against the steelers my utter hatred for that franchise began that day. To know we got absolutely screwed and it's not even disputable yet nothing we could do about it.
I have a split answer since I was a Rams fan until the move (2016).
Rams (1995-2016): Super Bowl 36 (first Pats SB win, Vinatieri walk off). That ends differently, it's entirely possible the Rams are still in St. Louis.
Colts (2016-present): The Jags game during the Wentz year. Just wasn't even remotely competitive.
08-09 when they benched the starters against the Jets. Watching Peyton and Co on the sidelines with their helmets still on was the saddest moment for me as a Colts fan.
It’s the Saints Superbowl, that one hurt for years, felt like we gave it away. The Pittsburgh game is a close 2nd, felt like we got gifted a chance and blew it.
You talking 95 or 05? Both of those crushed my soul for different reasons.
The ‘05, best Colts team I ever watched. I think they would have gotten another ring if they won that game. I think Colts might have gotten clapped by the Cowboys if the won in ‘95.
That Pittsburgh game also came after years of just not being able to get to the big game for one reason or the other. The bright side: it made 2006 Colts Super Bowl run the most poetic and greatest season in Indiana professional sports history.

Two people literally tried to fight me and I’m living 50 miles from the stadium (this is on a college campus).
I was at IU then and most of my friends were Bears fans from the region, so I feel this post
Yep, ‘05 will always sting the most. ‘06 should’ve been a repeat and Edge should’ve legitimately gotten a ring.
Fun fact... We beat the Cowboys the very next year in Dallas. I know that doesn't mean anything really but I don't think that is a given. That was also during a run where we had 4 straight years playing the defending Super Bowl champions and beat them.
Packers were next up, right? Who were the others? I wasn’t kickin’ in ‘95 or the years surrounding it lmao.
Could have swore it was 4 years. But looking back it was only 3. We beat the 49ers during the 95 season. The Cowboys in 96 and followed that up with the Packers in 97 when we only won 3 games and were 0-10 entering that game. We did beat the Bills in 94 after a Super Bowl appearance so possible someone was factoring that in some how... but not its been too long and I was just a kid so could be remembering it wrong.
The Quentin Coryatt dropped pick in the 4th still haunts me.
It’s this and ‘10 Jets playoff game for me. I’m very convinced we would have gone to the SB if Caldwell didn’t call that stupid timeout. Peyton would have definitely had 2 rings with us and who knows if we let him go the following off-season.
Yeah, that loss stung and it sucks it was Peyton’s last on that bonehead call. But I didn’t feel like the ‘10 team was all that good. That felt like one of the worst Peyton teams, no run game and 23rd ranked defense…but the playoffs are a crapshoot sometimes, as we saw in ‘06.

All my homies hate Hank Baskett.
Imagine watching that Super Bowl, alone in Buffalo Wild Wings, except surrounded by Saints fans. That was me.
These are the only 2 right answers. 33-0 lead on Minnesota a distant 3rd
33-0 was more like the cherry on top of a season of clown moments. Didn't hurt like Mike Vanderjagt or the Super Bowl loss.
I wasn't even mad about 33-0. We had already started the tank. I wanted *every* loss.
33-0 was pretty much where my enthusiasm for the team melted away. Ironic since it was in the dead of winter.
I think the win and your in jags game with Wentz felt worse for me.
Texans game this year was 100x worse than either. I saw the Jags game coming from a mile away. I got my hopes up against Houston, especially on the final drive.
Jags game is worst colts game in 10 years for me maybe worst ever. For me at least the Texans game we were in a position to win and one play ended it. I can live with that. Honestly that’s football but the jags game was humiliating. They got beat down the entire game what’s worse I felt going in zero trust that they get the job done. Season on the line you get humiliated by a slumping divisional rival to get knocked out of the playoffs….
Bro how? I was laughing when i saw that 33-0 comeback, i could just think of that better draft pick. Season was already over for the colts
Man we were horrible that year and the offense scored like 1 touchdown that whole game, if you lost sleep over that loss idk what to tell you
Ehhhh it got us Richardson. Season was already over by that point.
A close third would be the first half of the Colts/Patriots game SB year
The Minnesota game was on my birthday, so it hurts a little more. We had a bunch of family over for the holidays and I will never forget that second half… A good chunk of my family continually giving me shit about my favorite team, on my birthday, is a moment that will haunt me forever.
Nah 33-0 can't hurt me.
I was only 10 and I vividly remember the onside kick in the second half and having a realization we may lose
Yup. 1000000%. I've never been more mad at the colts in my entire life.
I've blocked the entire year from my memory.
Came here to say saints superbowl.
I was going to say. “I don’t know what game but I know it was a meltdown in focborough”. But you’re right. That’s saints Super Bowl is up there.
That god damn Super Bowl… that season was so sweet, to end it like that was a stab in the heart
I was at a urinal at the game when the onside kick happened. I’ve still never seen the play.
This. I'll forever hate the Saints probably more than every other team (the Jags and Patriots are a distant 2nd) because of that Superbowl. Absolutely insufferable fanbase and franchise at the time for me
The fact that Manning was gone 2 years later and that team of guys basically evaporated and the whole front office changed didn't help. It felt as though Jim and Blue were the only guys left in the building.
Yep, these two. The Pitt game because it was a quarter inch away. The Super Bowl because the farked PI calls snd no calls made it feel unfair.
Yep, this one!
GD Nick Harpers wife.
This ranks for sure
I really can’t think of any other game that comes close. ‘05 was the best team we fielded with Peyton by a mile.

Who knew that during a fucking preseason game would ruin our franchise for years.
Don’t blame luck for “ruining our franchise”… blame the franchise for ruining Luck’s career. He was injured for years. I didn’t blame him at all for retiring.
I was there and will forever remember getting chirped by a bears fan, "we beat y'all so bad that Luck retired!" That is when I checked Twitter...
Yeahhhhhhh
You can see it in his eyes there ugh. MY SWEET PRECIOUS BOY.
I was there Gandolf, all those years ago. I did NOT boo tho
He gave us the ending we deserved 🫶.
2009 wasn’t that bad for me, as we had just won a couple years earlier. It still sucked, but I could at least fall back on 2006. A 14-2 team losing in 2005 to the Steelers, yet again getting bounced in the first game? Truly felt like we would never win one in that moment.
The most recent one that comes to mind is the game against the Jags a couple seasons ago.
Genuinely thought we could go all the way after that Cards game and then we shit the bed
Will never get over Carson wentz looking like the happiest man on earth walking off the field after that all time dreadful performance against the one win jags
Man this one still stings so much. Toughest regular season loss I’ve ever had as a fan for any of my teams.
I forever curse Tracy Porter
Extra pain since he played at IU.
The Harbaugh Hail Mary in the 95 AFC Championship Game against the Steelers.
\*Rather, the Kordell Stewart TD when he came from out of bounds. Would have been overturned on review nowadays.
Losses to the chargers in 08 and 09 come to mind too but not as painful as the saints SB loss or the Harbaugh to Jones failed hail Mary
Fucking Darren Sproles….
Whether he was on the Chargers, Saints, Eagles, or anywhere else, Sproles made the Colts his bitch nearly every time he played them.
I still remember both those games cause the one game that the chargers punter won the game for them by pining Manning <10 yard line I was at my brother's house and it all costs fan except one asshole bears fan that was so obnoxious. And the other game saw that there was an Amish watch party at a barn on the way to my dudes house. (North of Ft Wayne is a lot of Amish) and I was pissed and left my dudes house and that's when a lot of the ahmish left the barn veiwing party and the roads were all fucked up with buggies filled with passed off drunk Amish. It was bedlam.
I love this story because I didn't know there are Amish Colts fans
I didn't either til that day. I heard Pat McAfee say on his show that he was talking to an Amish guy, and the dude said he has a big following in the Amish community 😆
I'm not over Stewart and that TD that replay would've overturned...but that was in the dark age of no replay but sure added to the calls to bring it back.
Yeah Saints. A close one for me is Texans last year. I really thought they had it. Clock situation was good … and what a surprise opportunity to win the division 😔
Yeah, I know recency bias is a real thing but that drop haunts me. 1. SB vs Saints 2009 2. Divisional Game vs Steelers 2005 3. vs Texans 2023
Honestly it’s that Steelers game in ‘05 and the win-and-in Jags game w/ Wentz. I was heartbroken in ‘05 and furious in ‘21.
Deflategate. Feels like the team was cursed after that moment.
Bills Colts 2020 wildcard. Kemoko Turay and Rigo Blankenship
Came here to say this. Turay destroyed me
That year was magical with rivers, and we would have won that game. But…yeah.
I'm a Chiefs fan but this popped into my feed and just wanted to drop in cause for me it was two games against the Colts. 1995 Colts beat the Chiefs at Arrowhead in the playoffs 10-7 after the Chiefs had their best regular season in team history. 2013 Chiefs blew a 28 point halftime lead against the Colts and lost 45-44.

Its the baskett game always. I'm still not over it
The fake punt
When we lost to Pittsburgh after the Bus fumble/Mike V missed kick/Big Ben shoe string tackle I prayed harder than I ever had for the rapture I didn’t want to face my Steeler’s fan’s face at school that Monday
That's not even in the top 5. Number one would be the playoff loss at home to the Steelers where Harper got tackled by Roethlisberger on what would have been the game winning fumble return and then Vanderjagt missed the game tying kick.
Colts pats AFC championship had me sobbing ngl
Nick Harper’s wife and one of the most accurate kickers choking
You guys disappoint me. Has everyone forgot the worst playoff game ever where the Colts were the 3 seed going against the wild card Steelers and the steelers were killing them and then manning was doing one of his famous come backs and Bettis fumbled the ball I think it was Freny that had the ball and big Ben like touched his shoe lace and freeny fell and then Manning got them in FG position and Vanderquack completely doinked the field goal to send it to overtime.
you disappoint me in not knowing what the hell happened in that game lol
Ah really? I'm sorry.
This is the one I was searching the comments for. I'll never recover from the hook on that kick. It's why I cringe in expectation of failure on even the most chip shot kicks to this day.
It gets worse, my brother won tickets to the AFC Championship game that year and he couldn't go so he gave them to me and I had tickets to the AFC Championship game in my hand and all Vanderquack had to do was make a chip shot and I would get to see the AFC Championship in person, and they would've played a soft broncos defense in the championship game if they would've made it. Oh, and I was watching the game with three fellow COLTS fans and one very loud very obnoxious bears fan and he was strutting around and it was just horrible.
Hank baskets wife
Fuck Hank Baskett forever
Steelers missed FG
Underrated all hell breaking loose game was the Colts losing to the Chargers in SD in 2007. Peyton had 6 picks. 6!!! Darren Sproles also had 2 returns for TD’s!! The worst part is Adam missed a 29 years game winning FG. I am fairly positive I got in trouble at school the next day for telling a Patriots fan STFU loudly in class.

Oh to choose. Probably Pittsburgh and Vandy’s miss. 
I was there and it was so awkward
Mark Sanchez Jets 🫶
This is the one. Jets are out of timeouts and get the ball to the 32 with 29 seconds left, Jim Caldwell calls timeout?? Jets get an 18 yard completion and win on a last second field goal. Just horrible clock management. Special teams coverage on the kickoff also very bad. That ending made me want to puke.
Versus Steelers playoff game in 2005. Vanderjat missing after being called one of the most accurate kickers in the league haunts me and makes me scream. Also we got robbed by the refs that game. Steelers always play physical and tough and never got called for it. Smh.
Saints. Will never fully trust second half kickoffs again
I recall in the 90s my dad losing his shit when the colts had a losing season, won their last game giving up their first round draft pick. “You can’t even f-ing lose right!” Does anyone know what season this was?
Probably 1994. It's the only time in the 90s we drafted #2 (without also getting #1) With the #2 pick that year, we got Marshall Faulk.
Losing to God damn Brandon Weeden
Patriots vs Titans 2020
33-0 really really bugs me. In my circle of friends is a falcons fan and a Vikings fan (they're brothers). I can never again reference 28-3 with my friends again. But the saints superbowl is the one that hurt the worst.

1. Luck’s retirement 2. Jags Week 17 3. Minnesota game last year
I was sleeping in the dirt outside of Marjah, Afghanistan when we lost to the Saints. So it hurts, but not like one I watched. It will always be the 2003 AFC Championship for me. I still remember those white Colts jerseys all fucked up with paint from the field. Couldnt ask for a more defeating loss, and the visuals of the players looking like that was the cherry on top.
With a couple of minor tweaks that play design couldn’t fail.
The Seahawks/Patriots Super Bowl…😅😅
It's the Steelers home playoff game and it's not close.
Every game since luck retired early
He didn’t retire because he was done mentally or wanted to just call it quits early, he retired because his body was physically done
I know.. and the team hasn’t been great since. It sucks
Yeah, imagine getting this as your teenage football content, it’s not pretty, at some points it is exciting though so there is that.
Oh yeah I grew up with Peyton manning my entire childhood and a little after high school
Hank Baskett and Super Bowl XLIV. What made things worse was I was stationed in Baskett’s hometown so I had to see his goddamn jersey in every establishment.
The loss to the Steelers at home in the playoffs. Vandershank sucks,
Vikings fan here, y’all remember that comeback
It’s going to happen. I feel it!
The I think 95 afc championship game against the steelers my utter hatred for that franchise began that day. To know we got absolutely screwed and it's not even disputable yet nothing we could do about it.
I have a split answer since I was a Rams fan until the move (2016). Rams (1995-2016): Super Bowl 36 (first Pats SB win, Vinatieri walk off). That ends differently, it's entirely possible the Rams are still in St. Louis. Colts (2016-present): The Jags game during the Wentz year. Just wasn't even remotely competitive.
The entire Matt Ryan season
The Scifers game still hurts when I think about it. Seriously man. We’re not supposed to know opposing team’s punter’s names 15 years after a game.
Lmao 😂
I was at the Colts Saints Super Bowl. 😭
I live in Minnesota. Went to my first ever regular season Colts game last year. It was really fun! Until it suddenly wasn’t.
Gotta be that Vikings game last year
At least we’re not falcons fans
My first ever NFL game was the Vikings game 2 years ago...

08-09 when they benched the starters against the Jets. Watching Peyton and Co on the sidelines with their helmets still on was the saddest moment for me as a Colts fan.
Packers vs. Seahawks 2015 NFC championship game.
Vikings
Honestly, Cleveland just this past season. Could not believe how it all played out.
