Default The Colts' Defense, 2018

o



(vs. REDSKINS, 9/16)



Excellent game overall, in spite of 2 INT's thrown by Andrew Luck (one of which was his fault, and one on a batted ball.)

They were extremely fast, with good open-field tackling and good gang-tackling.



GETTING OFF OF THE FIELD: ) The Redskins were 5-for-15 on 3rd downs, and 1-for 2 on 4th downs (plus, the one 4th down in which they did convert was late in the 4th quarter with the Colts leading by a score of 21-9. At that point, the defense was more concerned with not giving up large chunks of yardage, and keeping the Redskins in-bounds on tackles.)


They forced a turnover with 5 minutes left to play in the 4th quarter and the Redskins driving deep in Colts territory, which (largely) sealed the fate of their opponents.
