Colts struggle with running game in joint practices against Falcons

During joint practices with the Atlanta Falcons this week, the Indianapolis Colts faced challenges in their running game. In both sessions, the Colts struggled to find effectiveness on the ground, with reports indicating that the performance on Day 2 may have been worse than Day 1. Observations suggested that these issues stemmed more from the offensive line's play rather than the running backs themselves. Tight end Mo Alie-Cox highlighted the physicality and speed of the Falcons' front. Despite the struggles, it is noted that these practices are a part of the team's preparation and not a cause for alarm at this stage. Monitoring this aspect will be key as the season progresses.
