The Indianapolis Colts had an incredible opportunity with the rest of the AFC South losing this week and fumbled it.
They were embarrassed by the Cincinnati Bengals losing 34-14.
Colts Offense:
The Colts only were able to record 272 total yards in Week 14. With a disappointing 46 yards against a Bengals defense that was ranked dead last in the NFL against the run coming into this one. The Colts scored less than 20 points for just the 2nd time this season, and the offense only accounted for 7 of the team's 14 total points.
Colts Defense:
From the first drive of the game, the Colts defense looked out of sorts. And the Bengals and backup QB Jake Browning picked them apart all day long. The biggest disappointment from the group was the lack of pressure they created which allowed Browning to be comfortable in the pocket., as they failed to record a sack on the day.
