INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - The Colts have won 15 straight regular season games with Sunday’s win over the Rams.

It was another impressive victory for the perfect Colts. Peyton Manning led the offense with another 40-plus point performance and the defense once again held a team out the end zone.

On Monday, Coach Jim Caldwell said he was impressed with how his team keeps improving. It's the fourth time in five years that the Colts have started 6-0.

The Colts now prepare for the 49ers. This Sunday’s game at Lucas Oil Stadium will be their first of three straight home games.

"It kind of balances itself out after having four of six on the road, which is quite usual. It won't change our workload at all. We are still going to function exactly the same way whether we are home or away. We don't change our practice schedule,” said Caldwell. “The thing I'm really pleased about overall is we keep getting better every week. We keep improving just little by little and that's encouraging.”

Colts have Tuesday off and return to work on Wednesday gearing up for the 49ers.
