With the Indianapolis Colts and New England Patriots locked in a tight defensive battle, tensions ran high on Saturday night.
Patriots linebacker Matthew Judon and Colts quarterback Carson Wentz had an exchange of words following a play. Wentz came off the Colts bench to exchange words with Judon. DeForest Buckner was able to separate the two before anything got out of hand.
In what has been a game in which both quarterbacks have struggled, defense has managed to rule the day. Physicality was a theme on Saturday night, on both during and after each play. But it seemed the emotions overflowed, even after the whistle.
Matt Judon and Carson Wentz spotted jawing after a play. Not sure they agreed to disagree.
