Indianapolis Colts
The Indianapolis Colts are out trying their best to secure a spot in the playoffs, but have definitely seen some struggle mid-season. In the AFC South, the Colts have been battling with the Houston Texans for quite some time for the division title, but have unfortunately failed in this battle. In terms of offense, the Colts are putting up 18.6 points in each game, while allowing 20.6 points in every matchup.
Players to watch:
Anthony Richardson: 1,683 Yds, 7 TD, 11 INT
Jonathan Taylor: 208 Car, 911 Yds, 5 TD
Alec Pierce: 29 Rec, 645 Yds, 5 TD
New York Giants
The New York Giants have disappointed fans everywhere in this NFL season, and have been lagging at the bottom of the NFC East for a majority of the year. The Giants have also not managed to win a single game in their home ground this season, and will surely struggle in this matchup. The Giants are putting up a very weak offense as of now, while also allowing too many points to get through in each game.
Players to watch:
Drew Lock: 414 Yds, 0 TD, 2 INT
Tyrone Tracy Jr.: 151 Car, 695 Yds, 5 TD
Malik Nabers: 90 Rec, 901 Yds, 4 TD
