Not many would have expected the Colts to be in such a wonderful position at this time of the season, but that is the beauty and nature of this wonderful sport.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Not only have the Colts missed the playoffs for four years running, but the last time they started a season with an impeccable record was back in 2013 when they were 6-2, heading into Week 10.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Be that as it may, the focus this season has been on the overall quality of play from both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball. In particular, on the offense, quarterback Daniel Jones has been a revelation, while running back Jonathan Taylor is lighting up the league with his magnificent performances.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Of course, the coaching staff is definitely at the forefront of this tremendous success, but one can&rsquo;t deny the invaluable effort first-time owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon has been putting into the Colts&rsquo; games herself.&nbsp;<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&ldquo;She&rsquo;s making her presence felt&hellip; AND it&rsquo;s leading to wins!&rdquo;<br><br>Instead of a player, Cam is going with Colts owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon as his <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Wonderful?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@Wonderful<\/a> Pistachios Powerhouse Performer &#127942; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/w4IsKwAUF3\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/w4IsKwAUF3<\/a><\/p>&mdash; 4th&amp;1 with Cam Newton (@4thand1show) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/4thand1show\/status\/1982128017951322445?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>October 25, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Carlie Irsay-Gordon Showing the Way<\/h2><p>Jim Irsay, the father of Carlie Irsay-Gordon, took ownership of the Colts in 1997. He held that position until his death this offseason in May 2025. Wanting to keep the team within the family, Gordon passed on the ownership to his three daughters, Carlie, Kalen Jackson, and Casey Foyt.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Carlie, 45, has taken up the CEO responsibilities of the team after having been the vice chair\/owner for the past 13 years. However, what is striking is the fact that she is seen at the Colts&rsquo; games standing on the sidelines with a headpiece, a pen, and a writing pad as she takes down notes during the game. Earlier in the season, there were mixed views on this, as some felt that she should stay away from that aspect of the game and let the professional coaches take care of their jobs.&nbsp;<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Powerful: Colts owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon was spotted on the Colts' sidelines taking notes as they were dominating the Titans.<br><br>She is fully involved in all team activities.<br><br>We have never seen an owner as dedicated as this.<br><br> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/MmJRNeoY9K\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/MmJRNeoY9K<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Dov Kleiman (@NFL_DovKleiman) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NFL_DovKleiman\/status\/1982613014454137294?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>October 27, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>However, with the way the Colts are playing and expressing themselves on the field in the first half of the season, it would be foolish to argue against her methods.

After starting my professional career as a French-to-English translator, working as a content writer is a new adventure for me. I started out in the sports media field for two main reasons: my love for sports in general, especially the NFL, NBA, and Tennis, as well as my passion for writing. The best part of this job is that I get to write a variety of pieces with the freedom to explore content from various angles. It also enables me to stay up to date with the sporting world, which otherwise can be difficult to do in the day-to-day grind. In a world full of chaos, sports unite and entertain like nothing else!","sameAs":["https:\/\/x.com\/devakul"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/devavrat\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/639356"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=639356"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/639356\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":639367,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/639356\/revisions\/639367"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/639366"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=639356"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=639356"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=639356"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
