It may not be pretty, there might not be a lot of splash plays, and sometimes the stubborn commitment to the passing game makes me a bit mad, but Steichen continues keeping the offense rolling, and having Braden Smith back certainly helped with everything. The running game carried the load against a very toughh Raiders’ defense that had allowed just 14 points and scored 14 themselves against the Kansas City Chiefs last week. The Colts’ offense had almost 350 yards of total offense, no turnovers, and 23 points scored. The unit relied a lot on Jonathan Taylor and the offensive line, while some individual mistakes by Minshew or drops by the receivers prevented what very well could have been another thirty point outing.
