Colts at Panthers: Week 8 Where to Watch

facebooktwitterreddit

The Indianapolis Colts (3-4) head out east to face the Carolina Panthers (6-0) on Monday Night Football. The Colts are desperate to find a win outside of the AFC South while the Panthers want to prove they belong in the ranks of unbeatens.

Indianapolis needs to figure out what is wrong with Andrew Luck, and we have news that his struggles might be due to multiple rib fractures. There is some controversy to the report as Colts GM Ryan Grigson issued a non-denial denial by telling people to look at the injury report, where Luck is noticeably absent. The NFL has announced that they would look into whether or not the team violated league policy with the injury report, which could result in a fine or loss of draft picks.

This latest issue could hurt the team badly and if it does, someone’s head needs to roll. There is a rumor that many of the players know how banged up Luck it, but after last week’s loss everyone acted as if they had no answers for his problems. He also hasn’t been wearing a heavy flak jacket to give extra protection to his ribs (he’s either brave or dumb).

For now, the Colts are focused on trying to get back to .500 against the Panthers tonight. We’ve broken down the numbers on this week’s foe to get a better picture of what the Colts will face. We also spoke with the folks at Cat Crave to get some inside information on this week’s opponents in our Behind Enemy Lines. And you can get our full game preview in the weekly What to Watch For.

We also have a fantasy breakdown, if you need to make a last minute move tonight.
