Defensively, the Colts have surprised this season. They held the Redskins to just 9 points, and played pretty well against Philly last week as well. The Colts’ defense kept them in this game early on after the offense struggled. Here is how each unit grades out.
The defensive line played pretty well for most of this game. Denico Autry had himself a game, having 9 tackles with 4 tackles for loss and 2 sacks. The line as a whole did a good job plugging up running holes as well, only allowing running backs to 80 yards.
