The Indianapolis Colts face the Philadelphia Eagles in their first preseason game of the 2015 season. The Colts hosted the Eagles early last season, losing a close game 30-27. Both team’s have overhauled a good portion of their teams, but the Eagles have been the subject of a lot of scrutiny.
They have a new quarterback and running back heading into 2015. The oft-injured Sam Bradford won’t play this Sunday, so viewers can expect a few series from Mark Sanchez. After that, be ready for a healthy dose of Tim Tebow, which ensures that the Colts should be able to make their fair share of defensive plays.
Colts fans can expect just a series or two from the team’s starters, and a number of players will be given the day off due to nagging, but minor, injuries. You can check out our game preview here.
