Irsay: Colts will win 'at least 2 Lombardis this decade'
Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay made a bold promise in the wake of the team's latest loss.
In a tweet Tuesday, Irsay guaranteed Colts fans that Indianapolis will win "at least" two Super Bowls within the next 10 years.

Irsay's tweet came a day after the Colts blew a 22-3 lead and lost 31-25 in overtime to the Baltimore Ravens. They currently sit third in the AFC South at 1-4.
The optimistic Irsay stated in March he envisions a "golden era" starting soon for the Colts, and expressed confidence in both general manager Chris Ballard and head coach Frank Reich.
"I really believe that you will see a golden era develop as we go into this decade sitting here in 2021," he said, according to Colts' official website. "I believe it with all my heart and soul. There's good reason to believe it. You talk to people around the league and people that know, they're going to agree with what I'm saying when they look at Chris Ballard and Frank Reich and the expectations going into this decade that we have for both of them leading the team."
