Colts vs. 49ers Predictions
It has been the tale of two seasons for the Colts, who started off 7-1, but they are just 1-5 in their last 6 games. Their schedule was a big part of that early season success, as they have played 4 Top 8 teams over the last four weeks.
The injury to QB Daniel Jones could have crippled their season, but QB Philip Rivers was serviceable against the Seahawks in a game they could have won.
49ers QB Brock Purdy should be able to move the ball in the air, and the 49ers go on to win Monday night.
