The Colts Ended A Dumb Streak In A Dumb Way
Who was the last Indianapolis Colts player to have at least 100 rushing yards in one game? Just kidding, there’s absolutely no reason to know that, but it was Vick Ballard in Week 15 of the 2012 season. Last night, Frank Gore finally snapped the streak. Then unsnapped it. Then resnapped it....
