Next Sunday, the Indianapolis Colts will host the Chicago Bears at home, in Lucas Oil Stadium, for a Week 3 match-up that the Colts desperately need to win. Their start to the 2024 NFL season has been rocky, to say the least. Week 1 ended with a loss to the Houston Texans, albeit a promising one with signs of potential to grow as the season developed. But in Week 2, the Colts traveled to Green Bay, Wisconsin to take on the Packers at Lambeau Field, and the team completely collapsed.

The defense allowed the Packers, led by inexperienced backup QB Malik Willis, to completely dominate them, and the offense, unfortunately, didn't perform much better. Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson struggled, throwing three interceptions, while multiple receivers likewise dropped pass after pass.

For now, the Bears are heavily favored to win, but a Colts surprise victory could be the first step towards fixing a shaky start to a still-salvageable season. Unfortunately, it could be even more difficult for the Colts, with star defenders DeForest Buckner and Laiatu Latu both out with injuries. It's currently still unknown if they'll be able to play on Sunday. Who will potentially be playing in their places? Read on to see what the Colts are forecasting with their Week 3 unofficial depth chart.
