 Colts rule out 2 starters vs. Dolphins
Quote: INDIANAPOLIS -- Colts interim coach Bruce Arians says rookie tight end Coby Fleener and cornerback Vontae Davis will not play Sunday against Miami.
Both were injured last weekend at Tennessee.
...
Arians says he hopes both starters will return to Indy's lineup in a couple of weeks.

 Re: Colts rule out 2 starters vs. Dolphins
Darn. Wanted to pick on Vontae. Oh well.. With Vontae out.. I can't imagine there is much depth there since they did trade for him. Fleener being out is nice too.. We aren't exactly stellar at covering TE's.

 Re: Colts rule out 2 starters vs. Dolphins
The Indy secondary is one of the worst in the league, even with Davis playing. They have two picks all year and allow one of the highest QB ratings of any team. They've also allowed 13 TDs.
Their run defense is pretty bad as well.

 Re: Colts rule out 2 starters vs. Dolphins
We have a bad history taking on former players. I would have been willing to bet that Davis would have played his best game as a pro against us.

 Re: Colts rule out 2 starters vs. Dolphins
Rich, I didn't realize their defense has been struggling as I have not paid much attention to Indy, accept that Vontae has been getting beat a lot, so too bad he isn't playing.
Sorry Junkie, I know you feel differently about the kid!!

We have to put pressure on Luck, plain and simple.

 Re: Colts rule out 2 starters vs. Dolphins
Hopefully Tannehill comes back and we dominate these guys like we did the Jets last week. No doubt they have weaknesses on defense that we can exploit. Hopefully the defense can get after Luck and force some rookie mistakes as well. I like our chances in this one, but I know they're going to come out hungry seeing as it's in Indy and they're playing with confidence right now.
