Without Several Starters the Colts Run Game Didn’t Have Legs

In typical preseason fashion, the Colts didn’t provide much in the way of entertainment during their opening bout with the Buffalo Bills on Thursday night. It is well established that preseason games don’t get the attention and planning of a regular season contest, nor do they get the effort from veteran players during the time they’re involved in the game.

It simply doesn’t pay to risk your health in a game that doesn’t matter. Ask the Texans, who saw wide receiver Keke Coutee go down with an ankle injury, or the Lions, who lost wide receiver Jermaine Kearse with a broken leg.
