2. Find a way to limit Michael Thomas
He is arguably the best receiver in the NFL, Michael Thomas is on a record-setting pace this season. Going into Week 15, Thomas has 121 catches, 1,424 yards, and seven touchdowns. If Thomas averages seven receptions over the next three games he will pass Marvin Harrison’s record for most receptions in a season (143).
With a lot of the Indianapolis secondary banged up going into this game, Matt Eberflus might have to shy away from his morals and look to run a double team, blanket coverage on Thomas. The Colts have been torched by big receivers this season, Deandre Hopkins, Mike Evans, Julio Jones, and Keenan Allen, and Thomas might be the next to join that list.
