Setback for Raimann and Colts
The Indianapolis Colts and Austria’s NFL regular Bernhard Raimann have suffered a setback in the battle for the play-off places. There was nothing to gain from the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. Kicker Younghoe Koo scored five field goals to make it 29:10, plus two touchdowns for the home team. The Colts offense with left tackle Raimann in the starting lineup only managed one running touchdown by Jonathan Taylor and one field goal. Indianapolis now has eight wins and seven losses. Only two matches remain to be completed before the end of the basic round.
The Colts were lucky, however, that a direct opponent for the play-offs in the AFC also lost. This refers to the Houston Texans, who lost 22:36 once morest the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. If the regular season ended following the current game day, the Colts would still be in the playoffs.
