The Indianapolis Colts heard the noise of how they can’t beat good teams and that they can’t finish their opponents. They responded with a dominant performance against the Buffalo Bills and made a statement to the rest of the AFC.
The offense punched the Bills’ defense in the mouth to open the game and scored on their first four drives. They had no answer for Jonathan Taylor, he was unstoppable and has put himself in MVP consideration with his current run. The defense deserves some credit as well.
They limited explosive plays by the Buffalo offense, never let Josh Allen get comfortable, and grabbed three interceptions. Special teams continued their stellar play. T.J. Carrie picked up an Isaiah McKenzie fumble on a kick return and put the offense at the two-yard line.
Michael Badgley continues his perfect streak, making all seven attempts, which included a long of 37 yards. It’s always a good thing when you don’t see much of Rigoberto Sanchez, but he did deliver on his one attempt and pinned the Bills at the nine-yard line.
The Colts controlled this game from kickoff and never looked back. Indianapolis is getting hot at the right time, here are my top five takeaways from the win:
