One of the functions of all the injuries is that the Colts are no longer able to jump out to big leads every game and force their opponents to throw the ball to catch up. The Colts defence isn't built to have teams banging away at them with the ground game for 4 yards a pop. As a result guys like Freeny and Mathis aren't as effective with the pass rush, and other guys are going down since it is an undersized unit thats not built for a physical war.
