Stampede Blue

The Indianapolis Colts (3-1) have now won their third straight game since coming up short in their Week 1 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Sunday, the Colts' defense continued their stingy play, stuffing the Chicago Bears' running game, and holding the Bears' offense to 4 of 14 on third down attempts. The Colts offense wasn't mistake free, however, they did keep from giving the ball away, and were able to put enough on the scoreboard to keep control of the game. On the flipside, the Colts struggled to run the ball, they weren't good in the red zone (1-4), there were a couple very near misses (near interceptions), and Philip Rivers wasn't accurate on some pretty simple throws by the NFL's standards. The Colts continue to get quality defensive performances from DeForest Buckner, Justin Houston, Julian Blackmon, and maybe more surprisingly, from Xavier Rhodes. Additionally, Mo Alie-Cox has become a go-to option for Rivers, and is in need of another playmaker as the Colts' offense has produced only 7 touchdowns
