5-1. Good teams beat down bad teams, but another thing good teams manage to do is win when they are not at their best, and the Colts managed to do just that against the Cardinals. The game was not pretty, perhaps the worst game I have seen from the team this season, but they managed to score at the right time, and (thanks in big part to a missed DPI call on Trey McBride late in the game) get the stop when it mattered the most.

Indianapolis, IN — The Indianapolis Colts’ pass rush through five weeks had been touted as a struggling unit that lacked consistency. This unit has been getting the job done, but a below-average pressure percentage (T-21st) and league-worst (T-31st) get-off rate has raised questions as to whether or not this group has enough juice to last for the entire season. Against the Arizona Cardinals, however, Indy’s pass rush put on its strongest showing yet.

The Indianapolis Colts have another major opportunity to cement their legitimacy as they head out on the road for their second test of the season. Ironically enough, it will be in the exact same building in which they lost in crushing fashion to the Los Angeles Rams. The L.A. part stays the same, but Chargers are swapping in for an important AFC contest. FanDuel Sportsbook is seeing a tight one with the Colts as 1.5-point underdogs.

The money line starts at -104, and the over/under is 48.5.

When the news flashed that Kyler Murray would be sidelined for the week six tilt against the Indianapolis Colts, there were quite a few people expecting an absolute beat down. Overcoming numerous injuries that included the starting quarterback seemed like too much for a team that had lost three straight on last second field goals. Throw in Marvin Harrison Jr. going down and the odds seemed insurmountable. Not only did the Cardinals not back down; they almost won.

Why did they have a chance towards the end of the fourth quarter to steal an improbable road victory? Two reasons: NFL...

It seemed like neither team could get a stop in the second half, but the Indianapolis Colts secured their third red zone stop with a critical turnover on downs to outlast the Arizona Cardinals in Sunday’s thrilling 31-27 victory inside Lucas Oil Stadium.

Colts quarterback Daniel Jones has guided the surging city to a 5-1 record to start the 2025 season and a 4-0 record at home. Cardinals starter Jacoby Brissett, who is with his fifth different NFL team since leaving the Colts in 2021, threw for 320 yards and two passing TDs in his return to Indianapolis. Both players...

Even with the Arizona Cardinals starting backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett in this one, the game would come down to the final minutes—as the Indianapolis Colts eked out a tough 31-27 home win.

The Colts offense once again heavily rode the hot hand of Jonathan Taylor and the ground game. Taylor remains a legitimate MVP and Offensive Player of the Year candidate and had 21 carries for 123 total rushing yards and a rushing touchdown—including the game-winning touchdown run with 4:32 left in the 4th quarter.

I wouldn’t say this was Daniel Jones strongest performance as a Colt, but he he...

The Indianapolis Colts announced before Sunday’s game that quarterback Anthony Richardson was injured during pregame warmups and would not play. After the game, we found out he wasn’t just inactive, he spent the afternoon at the hospital.

Richardson fractured his orbital bone during pregame after he had an issue with a rubber leg band. You can’t make this up.

Those bands are used to provide resistance to stretch muscles and joints. One of those at full torque slipping off a foot can rebound with painful consequences, if that is indeed what happened here.

Daniel Jones started and finished the game...

The Indianapolis Colts won their Sunday game over the plucky Arizona Cardinals. With the win, the Colts stay atop the AFC and no matter what happens on Sunday and Monday, Indianapolis will enter Week 7 atop the conference.

In the AFC South, the Jacksonville Jaguars fell on Sunday to the Seattle Seahawks, giving Indianapolis even more breathing room in the AFC South. The Houston Texans remain 2-3 on the bye.

Here is what the standings look like at 4:30 Eastern, 3:30 Central.

Indianapolis, IN — Lucas Oil Stadium is taking no prisoners to kick off Sunday’s contest between the Indianapolis Colts and Arizona Cardinals. During pre-game warmups, two separate Colts were injured and are now inactive against the Cardinals: Charvarius Ward (concussion) and Anthony Richardson (eye).

This is an unfortunate yet massive blow to Indy’s defensive backfield, and in particular, its cornerback room. Ward was already keeping its starting group afloat while Kenny Moore II and Jaylon Jones worked back from injury, but now Lou Anarumo’s cornerback room has depleted to two veteran reserve players and an undrafted free agent: Mekhi Blackmon,...

The Indianapolis Colts are at home to take on the Arizona Cardinals in week 6 of the 2025 season, kickoff is at 1:00 p.m. EST.

Last week saw the absolute dismantling of the Las Vegas Raiders at the hand of our Colts. If you were a Raiders fan, you would be hard pressed to think of a more complete loss, a more thorough destruction. Last week the Indianapolis Colts played a complete game, showed no mercy and dominated their opponent for nearly the entire game.

It was beautiful.

This week our Colts will face a reeling 2-3 Arizona Cardinals team...

The Arizona Cardinals (2-3) travel to take on the Indianapolis Colts (4-1)(-9.5), with the Horseshoe looking to keep their clear early season success very much alive and well.

Cardinals starting quarterback Kyler Murray (foot) is reportedly not expected to play, which means Arizona will likely turn to ex-Colts veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett to try to steal a tough road win.

Colts fans can catch the game on FOX, where Kevin Kugler (play-by-play), Daryl Johnston (analyst), and Allison Williams (sideline) will be on the TV call. Coverage map can be found here. Colts fans can also live stream with subscriptions on...

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter and Jeremy Fowler, ex-Indianapolis Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett is expected to start against his former team on Sunday in place of injured starter Kyler Murray (foot):

It didn’t look encouraging for the Cardinals starter’s availability for Sunday, when Arizona promoted backup quarterback Kedon Slovis from their practice squad to the 53-man active roster on Saturday.

Murray, who’s officially listed as ‘questionable,’ was only able to practice on Friday as a limited participant—having not practiced earlier in the week.

The former #1 overall pick of the 2019 NFL Draft has completed 110 of 161 total pass...
