Why You Need a VPN Today

However, first you need a VPN to unblock US streaming services from . Our favourite is ExpressVPN. It’s definitely not the cheapest option at $4.99/month, but it just works – and across all your devices.

They have servers in 25+ US cities/states and 105 countries, which unblock access to premium streaming platforms available only in the US, as well as free “on demand” TV services worldwide.

You’ll have access to local platforms as if you were in the country, meaning you can watch BBC iPlayer as if you were in the UK, CBC Gem as if you were in Canada, plus hundreds more worldwide.

Sign Up for ExpressVPN

Hotdog users get three months free at ExpressVPN, so it’s a “no-brainer” for us. Decide for yourself with their 30 day money-back guarantee.

IMPORTANT: Once you’ve installed your VPN and connected to a US server, you’ll still need to subscribe separately to access premium streaming services.

Bottom line: All of the 17 regular season Colts games will air on live TV. (One preseason game is streamed on Amazon Prime Video.) The services above have you covered for the regular and postseason. See the Colts schedule below.

About the Indianapolis Colts

Although the Colts have recorded winning records in two of the past three seasons, they did not make the playoffs in any of those as 9-8 marks in 2021 and 2023 fell just short of getting Indianapolis to the postseason. (The 2022 Colts went 4-12-1.)

That said, last year was especially painful as those playoff aspirations ended in cruel fashion, when running back Tyler Goodson could not get his feet under him, and a fourth-down pass that would have been a first down if caught went off his hands.

So, looking ahead, will 2024 be more like how the 2018-20 seasons were, which consisted of 10-6, 7-9 and 11-5 marks and, more importantly, two playoff appearances, or will it be more mediocrity?

For better or for worse, the core of the team has not changed much although now having new signee Joe Flacco as the team’s backup quarterback will ensure that the drop-off will not be too significant should starter Anthony Richardson get hurt again; he suffered a shoulder injury in 2023.

As for Richardson, the second-year player has shown a lot of promise, and hopes are that his sophomore season will allow him to put into action many of the things that he learned during his first go-around but was not able to be fully comfortable with yet.

Also a consideration is that head coach Shane Steichen is just in his second year in that role anywhere.

Other players to take note of include running back Jonathan Taylor, who led the league in rushing yards and touchdowns three years ago, wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr, linebacker Zaire Franklin, safety Julian Blackmon, and kicker Matt Gay, who made four 50+-yard field goals in a 22-19 win over the Ravens in week three of last season, becoming the first kicker in NFL history to do so.

The Colts can exorcise their 2023 demons right away as the season-opener is a home game against the Texans, which is exactly how that 2023 campaign came to a painful end.
