Description

The Indianapolis Colts offense has been struggling recently, with a drop in scoring and increased pressure on quarterback Daniel Jones. The teams frequent use of two tight end sets has taken slot receiver Josh Downs off the field, and the absence of defensive tackle DeForest Buckner has been a significant blow. If game planning against the Colts, a smart strategy would be to load the box and blitz Jones until the offense proves it can counter. On offense, targeting mismatches against linebacker Zaire Franklin in coverage could lead to big plays for slot receivers, tight ends, or running backs. Keep an eye on Colts center Tanor Bortilini, who has had a very good season, especially alongside guard Quenton Nelson.
