In Week 4, the Indianapolis Colts showcased their best offensive performance of the year. The Colts were able to pick up an impressive 22 first downs, marking their highest total in a game so far this season. This led to a remarkable 75.9% Drive Success Rate, ranking the Colts 10th best in the league for the week.
Point-wise, the Colts had the 5th best Points Per Drive (PPD) of Week 4. They also boasted the 6th best Expected Points Added (EPA) per play, but only ranked 13th in Success Rate (adj TSR). This indicates that the Colts relied on explosive plays to advance down the field.
Despite this, the Colts converted 8 out of 15 third downs, giving them the 8th best third down conversion rate for the week. Prior to Week 4, the Colts struggled on third downs, going 10 for 31 and ranking 26th in the league.
Looking at the season as a whole, the Colts offense ranks 14th in PPD and 16th in Drive Success Rate. This puts them right around the 15th spot, solidly above average in the league.
Fans and analysts alike are impressed with the Colts offensive performance in Week 4. “It was great to see the offense clicking on all cylinders,” said one eager fan. “The explosive plays were a sight to see,” added a local sports analyst. The Colts offense has definitely shown significant improvement and potential moving forward.
