INDIANAPOLIS — It's time to get on a roll.


After a dominating performance to earn their first win of the season against the Minnesota Vikings, the Indianapolis Colts (1-1) next play host to the New York Jets (0-2) Sunday at Lucas Oil Stadium.


Kickoff is at 4:05 p.m. ET.


While the Colts' 2020 season-opening loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars was certainly disappointing, the team showed its resiliency last week against the Vikings. Indy was the aggressor on offense (utilizing a punishing rushing attack) and on defense (forcing three takeaways, all interceptions, as well as a safety), while the special teams unit had a flawless afternoon (6-for-6 in the kicking game for Rodrigo Blankenship, including 4-of-4 field goals).


The Jets, meanwhile, fell flat in their 31-13 home loss to the San Francisco 49ers last Sunday at MetLife Stadium. New York had a particularly tough time stopping San Francisco's rushing attack, which logged 182 yards in all an averaged 6.3 yards per carry. The Jets were also limited to just 5-of-14 conversions on third down, and were unable to reach the end zone on two trips inside the red zone.


So what all should we be looking for when this thing kicks off? Here is the official game preview.
