Peterman was given the start a couple weeks ago against the Los Angeles Chargers and almost immediately played himself out of the job. Peterman threw 5 interceptions on just 14 attempts, completing only 6 passes to his own receivers for 66 yards in that start.
While Tyrod Taylor hasn’t been great this season, he has a 3/1 touchdown-to-interception ratio (12 touchdowns, 4 interceptions) and is completing over 63 percent of his passes. The Colts are looking for any way to pull out a win as the season comes to a close, and they may have just had their best opportunity handed to them early this morning.
Can the Colts capitalize on this chance to get their fourth win of the year?
