Six games into the 2024 NFL season, where do the Indianapolis Colts rank statistically in several key categories compared to the rest of the league?
In general this season, the Colts defense has given up a lot of yards, while the offense has been very boom-or-bust with big scores or short possessions.
On both sides of the ball, the team is looking for consistency, and getting healthy will certainly help accomplish that.
With all of the stats and information that is out there nowadays, it can be easy to get bogged down by all the data that is available. Whatever sort of information you’re looking for, I’m sure it exists.
So for this article, and in an effort to not go on and on and on, I boiled down my stat selection to the basics of football: run game performance, passing game performance, pressures, turnovers, third down success, and of course, points.
