Colts Favored to Stay Unbeaten at Titans in Week 3 AFC South Matchup

Tennessee leans on the run to protect rookie Cam Ward after an NFL-high 11 sacks through two games.

Overview

  • Sportsbooks list Indianapolis by roughly 3 to 3.5 points, and Dimers’ model projects about a 67% win probability for the Colts.
  • Indianapolis has scored on 14 of 17 drives with zero turnovers and no punts; Daniel Jones has 588 passing yards on 71% completions as Jonathan Taylor leads the league in rushing after a 165-yard game.
  • Tennessee is 0-2 with eight straight losses dating to last season, and the staff is emphasizing the ground game to ease third-down strain on Ward, who has been sacked an NFL-high 11 times.
  • Availability could swing key matchups: Colts CB Charvarius Ward practiced while in concussion protocol and DE Laiatu Latu has a hamstring issue; Titans RT JC Latham (hip), RG Kevin Zeitler (biceps), CB L’Jarius Sneed (back) and DT T’Vondre Sweat (ankle) are on the report.
  • Kickoff is Sunday at 1 p.m. ET on CBS from Nissan Stadium, and expert pick consensus heavily favors Indianapolis, with roughly 86% siding with the Colts.
