vs Miami DolphinsSunday, November 15 · 1:00 PM ETTV: CBSColts After Week 9: Season Report
The Indianapolis Colts lost 27-23 to the Dallas Cowboys for their fifth straight defeat. The result dropped the Colts to 2-7 overall and 1-3 at home. Dallas carries a 4-5 record, and the Colts have not won a single game since the start of Week 5.
Ashton Dulin made the biggest play, turning his only catch into a 55-yard touchdown. Daniel Jones completed 20 of 34 passes for 180 yards with 1 touchdown and 1 interception. Those 55 yards from Dulin formed a large share of the passing total, a sign of how little else the Colts generated through the air.
The Colts sit third in the AFC South, behind the Jaguars at 6-2 and the Texans at 2-5 and ahead of the Titans at 1-7. They rank 13th in the AFC and hold no playoff seed. The losing run includes a 7-42 defeat at the Jaguars and a 20-26 home loss to the Titans.
The Colts control the ball well, ranking 8th of 32 in time of possession, but the defense allows 27.7 points per game, 30th of 32. Last season's team went 8-9 and missed the playoffs, and this one is well behind that pace. Jones leads the offense with 1,542 passing yards, while DeForest Buckner leads the defense with 4.0 sacks.
Next come the Dolphins at 1-7, a trip to the Texans at 2-5 and the Giants at 5-2-1. Both the Dolphins and Texans carry losing records, so the stretch looks manageable for a team still in the race. The Week 11 game at Houston is a direct meeting with the team directly above the Colts in the AFC South.
