Up next for the Indianapolis Colts is a matchup at home against the Miami Dolphins.
The Colts enter this game at 2-7, on a five-game losing streak, and with a depleted wide receiver room following the NFL trade deadline. Miami, however, is 1-7 and will have Kyle McCord making his first NFL start at quarterback.

Is this the week that the Colts can find a win? Let’s check in on who the experts are picking to win this game.
NFL.com
A 5-0 sweep in favor of the Colts. Here is why Brooke Cersosimo is picking Indianapolis to win:
“Miami’s youthful offense, the second-lowest-scoring unit league-wide (15.8 points per game), was slowly building together, and it feels like it’s back at square one with McCord under center. This is a real chance for the more experienced Indy squad to get its first win since Oct. 4, and the non-traded Jonathan Taylor is the one with the goods to secure the victory in a low-scoring affair.”
Pro Football Talk
Mike Florio is picking the Colts to win, 17-7.

ESPN
ESPN is more split on this matchup. Five analysts are picking the Colts, while three are taking Miami to win.
CBS Sports
Pete Prisco has the Colts winning a close one, 23-22.
“This is the dog game of the week between two struggling teams. But one is young and playing hard on the way up, while one is on the way down after trading away assets. The problem for Miami is that quarterback Malik Willis is out. That means Kyle McCord will start at quarterback. Miami will hang around against the depleted Colts team, but the Colts will win it late.”
USA Today
