Turnovers kill teams. The turnover margin is one of the most important stats in the game of football. Whoever wins that battle typically wins the game. The Colts don’t seem to win that battle, and even if they tie their turnovers cost them games.
This happened again Sunday. Andrew Luck threw a pick on his very first pass. And it happened in the red zone. The Colts were in perfect position to get points right out of the gate. Instead, they gave the ball right back to the Bengals.
They started the game with a turnover and ended the game with one too.
