That said.....from a MMQB article:
Quote:
The Colts started 1-5, giving up 32 points a game in the losses while rotating at almost every position and looking every bit as vulnerable as expected.

They finished 9-1, having tightened those rotations and their identity, which is built on sound fundamentals and relentless effort. In those final 10 games, Indy allowed 16.4 points per outing, which would have led the league by more than a point if stretched over the full 17-week season.
They are not playing a "top ten defense."

They are playing the NFL's #1 scoring defense over the past 11 games (giving up an average of 15.55 points per game including against HOU).

Inmovable Object meet Irresistable Force.

Luckily, our offense versus their defense is a MUCH more favorable matchup.

If we can control the clock, limit their possessions and force some FGs or turnovers (by downs, INT or FF, whatever), then I think we will be good.

Walk Worthy,
