Dolphins vs Colts injury report and team news

Indianapolis rate 69.1 through the air, the lowest in the league.

The worst passing offense in football against the worst passing defense

Indianapolis rate 69.1 through the air. No team in the NFL is lower, and Daniel Jones’s 70.7 last week was close to his season.

The reason it might not matter is opposite them. Miami concede a 114.0 opponent rating, the highest figure in the league, so the one thing Indianapolis cannot do is the one thing Miami cannot stop.

On the ground Indianapolis give up 137 yards a game, 30th, and 4.93 a carry, 29th. Miami average 4.37 and have no better route into a game.
