On paper, anyway, the Indianapolis Colts<\/a> have one of the easier schedules in football for this 2026 NFL season.<\/p>\n

For starters, the Colts<\/a> will play just four playoff teams from the 2025 season. Based on their opponents’ projected win totals, the Colts’ strength of schedule\u00a0ranks ninth<\/a>\u00a0in the NFL.<\/p>\n

ESPN’s analytics have the Colts with the sixth-easiest schedule in the league.<\/p>\n

However, will that translate to wins? Perhaps not enough, with ESPN’s projected win total for the Colts sitting at 8.5.<\/p>\n

Mike Clay recently<\/a> went game-by-game, sharing the win-probability projections for the Colts. In only seven of these matchups is the Colts’ win probability greater than 50%.<\/p>\n

These probabilities also highlight the very difficult start to the season that the Colts face.<\/p>\n

Colts’ 2026 win probabilities for each game<\/p>\n

Week 15: at Tennessee: 63%<\/p>\n

Week 18: vs. Jacksonville: 53%<\/p>\n
