The Indianapolis Colts begin another season Sunday, still trying to snap the league's longest active winless streak in season openers. It's been several years since Indy last celebrated a Week 1 victory. And for the second time in three years, they've drawn the Houston Texans. The two AFC South teams played to a 20-20 tie when they last met in an opener in 2022. Since then, both teams have changed coaches, used first-round draft picks on franchise quarterbacks and played for the division crown. And with revamped rosters, both teams hope to contend for playoff spots again in 2024.
