Coming into this game against the Green Bay Packers, the Colts knew they had to put up points to have a chance to win. While the Colts defense has been outstanding this season, there is only so much you can do to slow down Aaron Rodgers. While the Packers’ defense has mostly been susceptible to the ground game this year, the Colts coaching staff knew they could also take advantage through the air.
Despite not having right tackle Braden Smith in pass protection in this game, Philip Rivers was able to have a phenomenal game and propel the Colts to victory over a tough opponent.
