Colts Move to 7–1 With NFL’s Top Scoring Offense as Taylor’s 80-Yard TD Caps 38–14 Win

Sustainability now hinges on tightening a leaky run defense entering the November stretch.

Overview

  • Indianapolis leads the league at 33.8 points per game after scoring 38 against Tennessee.
  • Jonathan Taylor ripped an 80-yard touchdown and finished with 153 yards on 12 carries in a three-TD outing that has some analysts touting an MVP case.
  • Daniel Jones extended his hot streak to four straight games with at least 210 yards, two TD passes and a 100-plus rating as teammates praise his preparation.
  • Production continues to be distributed, with Michael Pittman Jr. scoring his sixth touchdown to tie a career high while the offense operates on a take-what’s-there approach.
  • The lone blemish was run defense, which yielded 113 yards on 25 carries, raising questions the Colts must address on the road-heavy slate ahead.
