Colts @ Lions, Sunday, Nov. 1st, 2020, 1:00pm ET

[NFLfan]

 

Hope you're all having a restful weekend. Coming off their bye week, your Indianapolis Colts (4-2) are rested and ready to go. They are traveling to Detroit for a meeting against the Lions who sit at 3-3. Four years ago, the Lions beat the Colts in the last minute of the game, thanks to their QB Matthew Stafford. This time, the Colts, with Darius Leonard returning from injury, bring a much improved defense than what Stafford faced in 2016.   It should be another entertaining game. Good luck!

I said 27-21, hopefully we pull this one out today. If we do, we're in a solid spot!

[MB-ColtsFan]

I like our chances at ball control this game.  We keep Stafford off the field and grind out a 7 point advantage (I'm TERRIBLE at predicting scores, lol).  5-2 feels good, but the real tests are yet to come.

Go Colts!  All day, every day!!

Great news! We are pretty much fully healthy unless I'm forgetting someone. We already knew Campbell is out a few more weeks, so everyone that could come back is back! No excuses, lets win this game!

Thank goodness you don't have to watch the Vikings. I see they are showing in Indy but the Colts game is on at the same time. The Vikes will get destroyed.

 

Enjoy the Colts game.

Let’s get a win today colts

[PrincetonTiger]

Colts get the ball first

[PrincetonTiger]

[SteelCityColt]

That's not a bad way to proxy a run game.

[JlynRN]

nice catch and run by wilkins.

[PrincetonTiger]

Shoot

[CobraKai344]

Sorry but this O-line can’t run block for crap.  Last in the league at 3.6 yards a rush.  Poor series there that had momentum 

[SteelCityColt]

Not an encouraging drive to start, let's hope the D can respond in kind.

[PrincetonTiger]

Not a perfect start

every one tries to blame taylor but as soon as he gets the ball there is 4 guys on him .

[JlynRN]

Well not a great start. Let's see what the D can do now.

[coming on strong]

colts are not good at running to side they always lose yards , yet frank keeps doing it

[CobraKai344]

Absolutely.  His vision will get better but the blocking up front is not good at all and hasn’t been all season

[w87r]

Trying to outsmart them with Hines again.

 

Seriously quit running the guy.

[coming on strong]

the problem is only nelson is solid up the middle we need a new guard badly

Hyperbolic, the first play he ran on he ended up with a 1vs1 and tried to stiff arm the guy rather than break outside.
