They get the Chubb-less Browns next week. Hopefully Hunt is healthy. Should be an intriguing matchup. 

That’s going to be an interesting game. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a low scoring game. Colts O really struggling without #2, 3 WRs (Campbell, Pittman).

They've played:

  • Jacksonville
  • Minnesota
  • New York Jets
  • Chicago Bears

Now, that could mean nothing, or it could indicate they're playing well against really bad offenses. Only time will tell. 

It’s still early but that same Vikings team had no trouble moving the ball and scoring on the Packers, Titans and Texans. This Browns game coming up will be a good test.

I thought the Vikings' offense has looked putrid? I mean I haven't watched any of their games but that's the sense I've gotten from people the last 4 weeks.

The Browns are towards the top of the league in offense (shocking!) but are getting almost all of it on the ground. Their defense, especially in the secondary, is woeful. So, the Colts struggling in the passing game going up against the Browns secondary, while the Browns are doing a good job of stopping the run (as are the Colts) is a real intriguing matchup for me.

Somewhat but that Defense has been terrible they should have won against the Titans but choked and almost choked against the Texans.

I am looking forward to this game, and I don't like many games in this nfl  in recent years. There browns will try to establish the run from what I have seen, and the Colts are legit top 3 defence, possibly #1 .  They are solid  in all phases and disciplines as well as good tacklers.   This should be a throwback type game, a lower scoring game that is good to watch as opposed to pass and catch  games we see too often.

this is always good to know - who have they played.  It should be a good game or at least a way to verify that the colts defence is legit. Browns have legit rushing attack and at times can be a threat in the passing game. Lets see if the colts front get pressure and affected the passing game. Perhaps a reason their defence is good is their front.

IMO the Colts/Browns has "stay away" written all over it from a survivor/betting standpoint.

*The Colts have looked elite on defense against essentially some of the worst offenses in the NFL.

*The Browns secondary is historically bad going against a Colts passing attack struggling to find their rhythm.

*The Browns rushing attack is elite but without their best RB and a dinged up Kareem Hunt (hopefully he's a full go).

*The Browns got destroyed against the only good/great team that they've played

*Baker Mayfield has played turnover free football the last 2 weeks but their passing offense is 31 in the NFL (they basically replicated Tennessee's formula with Stefanski's scheme) and yet the Colts defense will likely put pressure on him with their front 4, albeit Cleveland's OL has been dominant all season

They have been good to average. They didn't really do much damage to the Packers till the game was over but I think there talent puts them a little above average.

they have scored 30+ in the other 3 games and 11 against Indianapolis. Colts held them to 175 yards. Other games they had 410,382 and 464 yards of offense.

Good? Hmmm not sure about that. Maybe D. Cook has been good. And Jefferson lighted it up in week 3. Thielen is still awesome at playing WR. 
But that's it. Cousins is playing like poo poo. 
Look at his splits between the first 3 quarters of games and in the 4th (when the game is usually out of reach because the team is down a lot). 
He's benefiting so much from prevent defenses. Vikings O has been average at the very best this year (to me at least) 

Indy defense look really good so far but let's see after they face a couple of good offenses
