Sunday afternoon the Arizona Cardinals (2-3) look to rebound from a brutal loss last weekend to the Tennessee Titans, but it will not be easy as they will be lining up against the top team in the AFC South, the Indianapolis Colts (4-1).
The Cardinals were outscored 16-0 in the second half against the Titans. Arizona did not score a point after the 10:43 mark of the second quarter. Emari Demercado looked to have scored early in the fourth quarter but did not hold onto the ball as he crossed the goal line. As a result, Arizona finds themselves looking up at everyone else in the NFC West. They sit a full two games behind the first-place 49ers.
The Colts continue to be one of the surprise stories of 2025. Last week they thumped the Raiders, 40-6. Jonathan Taylor ran for three scores and Daniel Jones threw for two as the Colts remained tied with Jacksonville atop the AFC South with their fourth win of the season.
Lets take a deeper dive into this Week 6 matchup between the Cardinals and the Colts.
