Indianapolis Colts
 PROFILE
The Indianapolis Colts football franchise has yet to duplicate its glory days in Baltimore. The team traces its roots to the Baltimore Colts, started in 1953 when Carroll Rosenbloom bought the foundering Dallas Texans to replace the Baltimore franchise that had gone bankrupt in 1951. With star QB Johnny Unitas, the Colts won NFL titles in 1958 and 1959 and later won Super Bowl V after the 1970 season. Los Angeles Rams owner Robert Irsay took control of the Colts when he and Rosenbloom swapped franchises in 1972. Irsay moved the team to Indianapolis in 1984. His son, Jim, took control of the franchise in 1997. Playing in Indianapolis' RCA Dome, the team captured the AFC East title in 1999, its first since 1987.
