I expect a Buffalo like performance against these guys at home minus the late 4th quarter heroics and rally attempt. I like Minshew. However, he doesn't have the cannon for an arm like Allen does.

I think Walker will turn the corner in this game. Was encouraging to see four pressures last Sunday. If he can convert just two of those into sacks it'll be a nice boost for the defense. At some point we need to see somebody flash outside of just Josh Allen.

I think our run defense will dictate the entirety of this game with them. Engram was a little quiet against the Bills as well. I expect a big game out of him working the zone coverages down the seams.

I think the Colts' defensive tackles will give us all sorts of problems.  I just hope Pederson has figured out a game plan to minimize those problems.  That's the one area where they have an overwhelming advantage over us.

And jet lag can be a problem, too.  I know the players get over it in a day or two, but that's a day or two of preparation lost.
