Thursday Night Football (Preseason): Indianapolis Colts vs Philadelphia Eagles Preview + Odds

The second game of the Thursday slate might be a bit different. History shows that the Eagles usually don’t play their starters in the final game of the preseason. This has happened often under coach Nick Sirianni‘s leadership.
However, the Colts have a different strategy, driven by the need for practice and adaptation. With significant changes, particularly in their offense led by rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson, Indianapolis is set to give its revamped lineup more playing time. Given the Colts’ extensive changes, it’s crucial for their offense, especially Richardson, to gain experience and refine their chemistry. Richardson’s performance has been steady, though not sensational, with 7-of-12 passes completed for 67 yards and one interception. As both teams gear up for this preseason matchup, it’s evident that their differing strategies reflect their unique circumstances.
This might be a low-scoring game and if the Eagles do rest their players, the Colts might have a nice last game to run their offense and defense.
