Regular season in five words or fewer: A complete and unmitigated mess

Perhaps nothing sums up the sad state of the Colts season like their league-worst point differential. The Colts have a minus-137 margin, a number that grew with Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Giants. The results in recent weeks have been trending in the wrong direction, with multiple blowout losses and waning overall effort from the team. Dramatic changes might be necessary, and the coming offseason feels like Indianapolis' most critical in years.

One more to go. Arguably the most turbulent season in franchise history is nearly over after another lopsided loss, this time at the hands of the Giants at the Meadowlands. Nick Foles' second start of the season was also his last, after he was sacked by Kayvon Thibodeaux and exited the game with an injured rib. On Monday, interim coach Jeff Saturday criticized Thibodeaux's "tasteless" sack celebration as well as the offensive line for not immediately coming to the defense of its quarterback, who was in clear pain while Thibodeaux did his tacky snow-angel routine right next to him. The ugly storylines are on infinite scroll in Indy.

The move to Nick Foles was a total disaster, and now he's hurt. This team has to get a quarterback in the draft.

Interim coach Jeff Saturday is now 1-6 after winning his debut -- pretty much what most assumed would happen following Frank Reich's demise.

In any normal situation, there would be zero chance of Jeff Saturday being back as Colts coach next season. But anything regarding Colts owner Jim Irsay is typically unusual. So we'll wait and see.
