There is a reason the Colts lead the NFL in units of 10-play, 10-play touchdown drives. You need.
His punt return average of 19.6 yards ranks 29th in the NFL and its resources after the start of the drive kickoff, the line of 26.7 meters is the latest.
So we have to go a long way, and defense systems, which often face worse. The plan to beat the Colts (9-6), the Tennessee (6-9) will try to Sunday at Lucas Oil Stadium is going to do is to lie, to play coverage and not give up the big play of the two units.
A third question has conspired to force the Colts to go long distance: His defense was plagued by injuries. Only four teams have fewer than 20 turnovers the Colts. Fields that were often too short selling relatively few.
"We just talked about as a way of thinking: If the ball comes, it is our duty to guests," said Colts quarterback Peyton Manning, who was in the middle of the 37 units Colts 10 games or more, of which hit 20th "Of course we want to if the defense and turnover at shortstop. But we are many companies in kickoff, had to recover in which even more.
"Does that bother you, but it is ensured immediately left :".... Here we run 8 Go "
Goal 86 yards in 16 games to start a kick 24 yards may seem a waste of much good work, if a close 19-9 victory denied persistent, as is the case when he visited Kansas City in October 1910th
Sixteen works for 85 yards do not give to the winners touchdown in Philadelphia, but the Colts have a chance with 1:50 to a loss of 26-24 to play.
Units of the works of over 10 defy the odds. The design of the Colts' defense, and many like him is a bet against an opponent in a position chords.
Tennessee coach Jeff Fisher is not a secret.
"It starts with Peyton and the offensive line," Fisher said. "You are always in the air. The descent and a long distance is to be avoided. When they go on the third down, third down manageable."
And if you're not. "According to complete the pass for the first time", "People use situations and tries for the third time, Peyton pressure," said Fisher,
Despite all the injuries, the Colts converted third below the rate of 45.1 percent. This is the fifth in the NFL. Fisher point is the fact that they have 14-of-49 (28.6 percent) in situations of the third and 10 or more supported. The Colts defense, by comparison, allowed 5 of 41 (12.2 percent) conversions under the same circumstances.
"I think it comes out of players," said Colts coach Jim Caldwell. "Certainly there is a structure and a form that can help, but mostly I think we have people who are No. 1, very consistent. His habits practices act. They are reducing errors.
"If you have some errors, you can combine the units as they are no longer back a lot."
One that can come with penalties. Second-17 and makes for a holding call a difficult transition. Only three teams have fewer penalties than the Colts 74th
