Where does Indianapolis Colts' 2026 strength of schedule rank?

In a way too early look ahead to the 2026 NFL season, how difficult is the Indianapolis Colts’ schedule?

DraftKings recently compiled those rankings based on the 2025 winning percentage of each team’s opponents.

For the Colts, on paper anyway, they have one of the easier schedules in football. The combined winning percentage of the Colts’ 2026 opponents is .464. By this metric, this is the eighth easiest schedule in the NFL.

Below is a look at who the Colts’ 2026 opponents are.

Going beyond who the Colts opponents are, how the specific schedule shakes out can also impact how difficult the season ends up being, with long road trips, a lot of travel, and where the bye is located, all factoring in.

We also know that each season, teams that are projected to be good struggle, and there are a few that always surprise.

Presumably, it’s now or never for the current iteration of this Colts team — although we’ve thought that before. A big reason that this team is back together again is because of the belief that the early-season success the Colts had in 2025 is repeatable.
