by Jaleel Grandberry
The Indianapolis Colts enter Week 8 coming off two straight losses. As they try to avoid a third straight loss, they will be hosting the New Orleans Saints. Like Indy, the Saints are coming into the game at 3-4. With the trade deadline on Tuesday, this game could have a big impact on how both teams approach the deadline.
Indy’s offense put up 38 points against the league’s top defense in Week 7, and the team will try to keep things rolling. Jonathan Taylor seems to have hit his stride and Zack Moss is also playing well. With the receivers also making plays, the offense could have another impressive showing.
Here are all the details and information for the game.
Colts vs. Saints Game Time
The game is scheduled for Sunday, October 29, at 1:00 pm ET, like many of Indy’s games this season. Indianapolis has one game scheduled for 4:05pm ET, and an international game that will kick off at 9:30 am ET.
Colts vs. Saints Location
The Week 8 game is a home game for Indy, so it will be in Indianapolis at Lucas Oil Stadium. The weather shouldn’t be a factor considering that Lucas Oil Stadium is a dome with a retractable roof. Since it’s now late October, the roof will likely remain closed, unless Indy is superstitious.
Colts vs. Saints Streaming and TV
The game will be aired on FOX 59. As far as streaming, the game will be available on fuboTV and NFL+.
Colts vs. Saints Odds
Indianapolis enters this game as 1.5-point favorites, a very slim margin. The Colts have -112 money line odds, and the over/under for the game is set at 43.5 points.
Colts vs. Saints History
Being in different conferences, Indy hasn’t played New Orleans much. The franchises have met just 14 times, and New Orleans leads the all-time series 9-5. The last time these two teams played was in 2019. The Saints won the game 34-7. New Orleans has actually won the last four meetings, with Indy’s most recent win coming in 2007. Colts will try to change that on Sunday.
