Indianapolis Colts WR Josh Downs caught five passes for 84 yards and one touchdown against the New York Jets in Week 11. He was targeted five times during the game.
Footballguys view: Downs can have value with Anthony Richardson at quarterback after all. He should be in lineups as a WR3/Flex in what could be a very high scoring matchup with Detroit. |

Colts | Jonathan Taylor held to 57 yards Sun Nov 17, 04:05 PM
Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor rushed for 57 yards on 24 carries against the New York Jets in Week 11. He also caught one pass for three yards during the game.
Footballguys view: Taylor was bottled up in a rare great performance by the Jets run defense this year, but with Anthony Richardson playing well, Taylor will eventually get his. Richardson got two rushing scores or Taylor could have had a bigger day when he was contained. He'll face a tough Lions run defense next week. |

Colts | Anthony Richardson accounts for three touchdowns Sun Nov 17, 04:00 PM
Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson went 20-for-30 for 272 yards and one touchdown against the New York Jets in Week 11. He also rushed for 32 yards and two touchdowns on 10 carries during the game.
Footballguys view: Richardson is going to be just fine. He clearly put the benching behind him and played maybe his best game as a pro in this one. The Colts are willing to let him use his size and strength as a goal line runner, and Richardson was more accurate on short and long passes against the Jets. He's back to being a high ceiling QB1 going into a very intriguing matchup against the Lions. |

Colts | Michael Pittman should play Fri Nov 15, 04:25 PM
Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 15, and is not on the injury report for Week 11.
Footballguys view: Anthony Richardson's return to the starting lineup, as well as the urgency created by a three-game losing streak and 4-6 record coincides with Pittman returning to the lineup. The team's veteran go-to wideout missed last Sunday's loss to Buffalo with a lingering back injury. A full week of work reinforced Pittman's readiness for Sunday. "He's ready to roll," coach Shane Steichen said Friday. The back injury has contributed to Pittman enduring the least productive season of his career: 30 receptions, 366 yards and two touchdowns. He had one catch in consecutive games for the first time in his career - at Houston and Minnesota - before being held out of the Bills game. He'll hope to turn things around with Richardson under center in a tough matchup against the Jets. |

Link to storyColts | Anthony Richardson back in the saddle Wed Nov 13, 11:49 AM
Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson will start in Week 11 against the New York Jets and be the starter for the rest of the season.
Footballguys view: Joe Flacco was not great as the Colts' starter over the last two games. We'll see if Richardson learned anything from his benching. He's back in the lineup, so expect less from guys like Josh Downs. However, with Richardson's rushing ability he could post near-QB1 numbers. This makes him an option for Fantasy GMs in superflex leagues. |

Colts | Joe Flacco will start vs. Jets Mon Nov 11, 02:34 PM
Indianapolis Colts QB Joe Flacco will remain the starter for the Week 11 game against the New York Jets, head coach Shane Steichen said Monday, Nov. 11.
Footballguys view: Remember: Steichen said he made the quarterback change from Anthony Richardson to Flacco because it would give them the best chance to win. But now the Colts are 1-3 with Flacco starting, including 0-2 since the official change. The losses dropped the Colts to 4-6 on the season, so they need a win to keep their playoff hopes alive. Worth noting, Flacco threw three interceptions in a loss to Buffalo on Sunday, surpassing his season total of two entering the game. While he completed 26 of 35 attempts for 272 yards, his four total turnovers (he added a lost fumble) played a significant role in the Colts' largest margin of defeat this season. Flacco could be on a short leash going forward. |

Colts | Joe Flacco Remains The Starter Right Now Mon Nov 4, 02:38 PM
The Colts made a quarterback change heading into Sunday night's game against the Vikings, but it did not have the desired effect. Joe Flacco was 16-of-27 for 179 yards and an interception as the Colts put up a season-low 227 yards and failed to score a touchdown in a 21-13 loss to the Vikings. That dismal outing came despite the defense forcing three turnovers, and the Colts only picked up 13 first downs, which led to head coach Shane Steichen being asked if Flacco will remain the team's starter and if he still thinks the veteran gives the team a better chance to win than Anthony Richardson. "Right now, yes," Steichen said in response to both questions.
Footballguys view: As PFT noted, the rationale for going from Richardson to Flacco was that the Colts were capable of making the playoffs and that Richardson's inaccuracy was keeping them from reaching their peak offensive performance. A couple more performances like Sunday's will make the playoffs look like a pipe dream for Indianapolis, though, so they'll have to be much better at home against the Bills next weekend. |
