The 1997 Indianapolis Colts season was the 45th season for the team in the National Football League and 14th in Indianapolis.
 The Indianapolis Colts finished the National Football League's 1997 season with a record of 3 wins and 13 losses, and finished fifth in the AFC East division.
 The Colts would start horribly, losing their first 10 games, their first 0-10 start since 1986, before an upset home win over eventual NFC Champion Green Bay.
 That would turn out to be the only good highlight all season for the Colts, as the team fell to a league-worst 3-13 record, and earned the first overall pick in the 1998 NFL Draft, in which they selected quarterback Peyton Manning in what would be the start of a dynasty for the Colts in years to come.
The 2001 Indianapolis Colts season was the 49th season for the team in the National Football League and 18th in Indianapolis.
 The Indianapolis Colts finished the National Football League's 2001 season with a record of 6 wins and 10 losses, and finished fourth in the AFC East division.
 In the process the Colts allowed 486 points in sixteen games, an average of 30 points per match and the franchise worst since the infamous 1981 Colts who allowed 533.
 At the time only the aforementioned Colts, the 1980 Saints and the notorious 1966 Giants (in a 14-game schedule) had ever allowed more points.
 This would be the last time the colts would miss the playoffs until 2011.
The 1993 Indianapolis Colts season was the 41st season for the team in the National Football League and tenth in Indianapolis.
 The Indianapolis Colts finished the National Football League's 1993 season with a record of 4 wins and 12 losses, and finished fifth in the AFC East division.
 The Colts would get off to a fast 2-1 start.
 However, after that, the Colts would go into a tailspin for the rest of the season, losing 11 of their final 13 games.
 The Colts offense was really abysmal during the season, as they would only score 189 points all season, the fewest in the league, and 3 of their 4 wins were by a 9 to 6 tally.
 Their only other win with not such a score was their 23-10 win over the Cleveland Browns in week 4.
 For the first time in league history, all NFL teams played their 16-game schedule over a span of 18 weeks.
