The Indianapolis Colts came out with a win on Sunday, as they defeated the Las Vegas Raiders 25-20. It was a solid game, as the team seemed a bit more fired up with Jeff Saturday leading the way as head coach. Now, everyone is losing their minds about Saturday’s big victory.

As you can imagine, everyone is going bananas on social media, as they can’t believe the Colts’ interim head coach won his first game. Also, they’re making sure to let Bill Cowher know about it too.
Bill Cowher is a loser today. JEFF SATURDAY AND THE COLTS WIN today

The Colts really did look more energized with Saturday at the helm.
The Indianapolis Colts looked like a completely different team under Jeff Saturday, I guess all those NFL Live episodes paid off, and Matt Ryan is obv better than Ehlinger obviously. I think the Colts were trying to see if lightening strikes twice w/ QB’s selected in the 6th rd.

At the end of the day, this is a massive win for Indianapolis. Jeff Saturday is clearly excited about the victory. Here is his immediate reaction to winning the matchup, per Alexa Ross.

Yeah, the Raiders are essentially a dumpster fire right now.

We’ll see if Jeff Saturday can string together a winning streak. The Colts take on the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 11. That’s quite a difference in comparison to the Raiders. Regardless, all eyes will be on Saturday and this franchise for this game.
