Colts pass protection collapsed against the Rams, with Matt Goncalves out and Dalton Tucker struggling at right guard. Nelson’s 29.1 pass-blocking grade and True Pass Set of 0.9 underscored a collapse up front, while Jones fought pressure to post 262 yards on 72% with an 80.6 rating. Indy dropped from 54.9 to 37.0 in pass blocking, tumbling to 15th in the league. Return of Goncalves could steady the line and salvage the offense.

Nelson’s meltdown is the biggest red flag, but the Colts remain in the AFC playoff hunt. If Goncalves can anchor the right side and Nelson can rebound quickly, Indy’s ceiling rises. Fantasy angles lean on Jones’s resilience and the line’s health—game plans and injuries will drive Week 5 decisions and streaming targets.

Colts owner Jim Irsay’s final guitar, Win for Jim, was built in weeks by Purdue's Guitar Lab to honor the franchise icon. A bold Colts-blue Fender Strat, it's carried into stadiums by Buckner, Nelson and Moore as a season-long talisman, a living reminder of Irsay's legacy and the drive to win.

Shane Steichen's idea turned a craft project into a team-wide symbol, with Manning's name woven into the lore and the guitar's road trip adding color to an AFC South season built on grit and storytelling.

Ugly is an understatement for the Dolphins in a 33-8 thumping at Indianapolis. Three Tua Tagovailoa turnovers (two picks, one fumble) produced 17 points for the Colts and a 23-0 hole that Miami never climbed out of. Injuries to Storm Duck and James Daniels further crippled a shaky offense line that hasn’t spent much time together, while young Miami players were exposed in their first extended action. The defense couldn’t slow the Colts’ surge, and the coaching chess match tipped decisively in Indy’s favor.

Indy’s plan leaned on a battered Dolphins edge and a far more cohesive Colts front, as Nelson and Raimann drew the eye on the left side and Daniel Jones operated efficiently under pressure. Miami’s receivers and Tua struggled to connect, especially Tyreek Hill, who battled a wrist/oblique hurdle and finished with modest numbers. The Debut Week setback raises questions about play-calling, protection schemes, and how quickly Miami can right the ship.
