Colts need to keep up good play in red zone

Related Topics: Indianapolis Colts, Red zone

The red zone is one of the most important areas in football. It is the closest area to the end zone, and good teams capitalize in that area. All of the best teams convert in that area and score more touchdowns than field goals. It’s where the money is made.

Indianapolis was one of those good teams. They were fifth in the league in red zone scoring, scoring a touchdown on 67% of their tries. That is pretty good considering how terrible they were a year before, only scoring touchdowns on 40% of their red zone trips.

Scoring that many times inside the 20 is great for any team.
