The Colts are allowing 137.3 yards rushing per game, 26th in the NFL. In four wins, the swift tacklers who usually swarm to the ball have allowed an average of 98.3 yards on the ground. In two losses, the same guys look more undersized and overpowered to the tune of a 215.5-yard average.
“Put that stuff to sleep,” Colts weakside linebacker Clint Session said of being worn down by Foster’s 191 second-half yards in a humbling 34-24 loss.
Session, who missed most of the preseason with a pectoral injury, pulled a hamstring in the Texans’ onslaught. He missed two games. Now he looks more like the hit machine fans expect, with 10 tackles in each of the past two games.
“They ain’t gonna try to run me over, trust me,” he said. “They ain’t gonna run me over.”
