Indianapolis Colts' Dwayne Allen: "We know that our time is now"

Indianapolis Colts tight end Dwayne Allen has acknowledged that the onus is on his side to reach the Super Bowl in the 2015 season.

The Colts bolstered their offense in the off-season by adding Frank Gore and Andre Johnson along with Phillip Dorsett in the first round of the 2015 Draft to challenge for the AFC title.

Allen has admitted that he and his teammates now have to go out and perform to reach the Super Bowl for the first time since the 2009 season.

"They want to win, and they want to win now - there is no hiding from that point," Allen told USA Today.

"From the owner down to the GM, down to the head coach, we know that our time is now."

The Colts were hammered 45-7 in the AFC championship game by the New England Patriots last season.
