Last week, the Indianapolis Colts faced a struggling team with a rookie quarterback, and the results were as expected. They held the Tennessee Titans to under 200 yards passing and won easily.
But in the first two weeks of the season, Lou Anarumo’s defense was supposedly taking on more formidable passing attacks in Miami and Denver. Denver’s Bo Nix was sensational as a rookie last season, and Miami’s Tua Tagovailoa has been quite good in the past, though you wouldn’t know it to see him now.
The Colts' defense was just as good, if not better, in those games than they were against Tennessee.
