Colts and Texans face off in desperate AFC South matchup

The Indianapolis Colts are set to host the Houston Texans at Lucas Oil Stadium on September 27. Both teams are 0-2 to start the season, making this matchup critical for momentum heading into October. The Colts have struggled defensively, allowing 1,029 total yards and 74 points in their first two games. The Texans, once considered favorites due to their defensive capabilities, have also faltered offensively, with quarterback C.J. Stroud facing challenges including increased sack counts and a lack of support from top receiver Nico Collins, who is likely out due to injury. Each team will seek their first win to avoid deepening their respective crises.
