Colts vs Ravens: Can Indy Repeat? | Indianapolis Colts News

0:00On September 10th, last season, the Indianapolis Colts look like a serious playoff contender before their quarterback went down with injuries. They absolutely dismantled the charges' defense, even on the road, and it makes you wonder if they can pull off something similar again. If their quarterback can give back to that level of play, especially after dealing with an Achilles and a shoulder injury, they could definitely put up. A big score. Don't sleep on Indy just because they missed the playoffs last year, Baltimore might be in for a shock. There are some real question marks for the Ravens offensive line, particularly at Guard and Center. And if key defensive players like in Indy Madoublique and Teddy Bridgewater are out, their front seven could struggle. This is tough when you're facing an offense as efficient as the Colts, especially on the road. Their offensive line hasn't played much together, and the defense hasn't seen much game action either, so tackling could be a major issue. The Colts quarterback is at his best throwing short passes, and he really picked the part the Chargers defense that way last time.

1:01He completed 15 of 18 passes under five yards for 140 yards and two touchdowns. If their running back also has a big game, it's hard to see the Ravens coming out on top. The Chargers defensive coordinator knows he needs to learn from that past performance. Continuity is a big factor here. The Colts are sticking with Woodwork last year, aiming to pick up right where they left off with a healthy quarterback. They already beat this Ravens defensive scheme, and they bring back the same core players and coaches. Meanwhile, the Ravens have a lot of changes, including a new offensive coordinator who's never called plays before, which could be a problem early on. The Colts defense also has some solid corners who can match up well against the Ravens receivers, potentially allowing them to bring more pressure on the Mar Jackson. They might be looking to run the ball a lot, and that includes Jackson himself. Plus, the Ravens kicker has been inconsistent, and their punter is a rookie. The Colts kicker, on the other hand, had to earn his spot showing a bit more fight.
