Denver Broncos vs Indianapolis Colts: Match Prediction, Injury Report & Players to watch out for

The Denver Broncos led by Russell Wilson will take on Matt Ryan and the Indianapolis Colts to kickstart Week 5.

The Denver Broncos and the Indianapolis Colts will lock horns against each other on Thursday Night Football to start Week 5 of this season. Both teams are dealing with injuries to key players, and it could ultimately end up being a battle between two veteran quarterbacks.

Russell Wilson and the Broncos are off to a 2-2 start to the season, but their offense has been a worrying sign. The results haven’t been promising for them, but the team will hope to bounce back against the Colts.

On the other hand, all the preseason expectations for the Colts have turned out massively wrong as they have been disastrous in this season so far. They are off to a 1-2-1 start, and quarterback Matt Ryan needs to carry his teammates and get a win against the Broncos.

Player to watch out for in Denver Broncos vs Indianapolis Colts

Matt Ryan – Colts

With star running back Jonathan Taylor out for this game against the Broncos, Matt Ryan could have a very big game as the Colts will be ready to pass the ball more, and Ryan will have the opportunity to prove the Colts fans that he is the right man for this job.

Match Prediction & Telecast Details:

The Indianapolis Colts could cause a huge upset in this game just like they did against the Kansas City Chiefs. They are more than capable of taking this Broncos team down who are still lacking when it comes to their offense.
