Biggest Games on the Colts' 2024 Schedule

AFC South games: The days of the AFC South being one of the worst divisions in the NFL are over. All four teams entering next season believe they will be better teams in 2024 than they were in 2023. Each team has its eyes on the AFC South crown. There will be no easy divisional games for the Colts this season. 

Young  QB Duels: All of the Colts' divisional matchups also fall in this category, but the Colts will potentially face many of the most promising young QBs in the NFL next season. This will allow the team and fans to see how Colts 2nd year QB Anthony Richardson stacks up.

  • Houston Texas Week 1 & 8 (C.J. Stroud)
  • Jacksonville Jaguars Week 5 & 18 (Trevor Lawerence)
  • Tennessee Titans Week 6 & 16 (Will Levis) 
  • Chicago Bears Week 3 (Caleb Williams) 
  • New England Patriots Week 13 (Drake Maye) 
  • Green Bay Packers Week 2 (Jordan Love) 
  • Minnesota Vikings Week 9 (J.J. McCarthy) 
  • Denver Broncos Week 15 (Bo Nix) 

Super Bowl Contenders: The Colts also have multiple of the top teams in the NFL who many view as Super Bowl contenders on their schedule. 

  • Buffalo Bills Week 10
  • Miami Dolphins Week 7
  • Detroit Lions Week 12
  • New York Jets Week 11

Primetime Games and Streaming Service Broadcasts

The Colts don't typically receive many primetime games. This season, that remained the case, with them only receiving a single primetime game. That being against Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets. 

New York Jets Week 11: The Colts have faced future Hall of Famer Aaron Rodgers multiple times over the years, but never with the New York Jets. Rodgers injured himself on the very first possession of the season, derailing his first season away from the Packers. This makes this upcoming season feel like his true first year there. And now the Colts know they will be facing the Jets under the night lights on Sunday Night Football on NBC. 

With this being the only primetime game, local fans will be able to watch the Colts on their local broadcast stations. Fans outside of the local market will be able to catch all the team's games on Sunday Ticket through Youtube TV. 

Strength of Schedule

Some use last year's win totals to decide the strength of the schedule for each team. Teams change so much from year to year, though, that I don't find that method accurate.  Sharp Football Analysis uses Vegas' current win projections for each team to create a more accurate strength of schedule graph. Their most recent graph can be seen below.
