On Sunday, the Indianapolis Colts improved to 7-5 on the 2023 season with a 31-28 win in overtime against the Tennessee Titans.

Here’s a look at some of the snap counts from Sunday’s game and what stood out most offensively and defensively from the playing time Indy’s players received throughout the roster.

Key contributors for Colts’ offense:

On a day where the Colts struggled to run the ball on a consistent basis, it was their wide receiver corps that helped generate much of the offensive production against Tennessee. Wideouts Michael Pittman Jr. (11 receptions, 105 yards, one touchdown) and Alec Pierce (three receptions, 100 yards, one touchdown) each recorded over 100 yards on the afternoon to go along with one touchdown as well.

It was also Pierce’s first 100-yard receiving game of his young career. Tight end Kylen Granson also caught three receptions for 72 yards against the Titans. These three playmakers played a pivotal role in the Colts coming away with their seventh victory of the season.

Key contributors for Colts’ defense:

The Colts’ defense line was dominant yet again on Sunday against Titans’ rookie quarterback Will Levis, sacking him six times. Both defensive ends Kwity Paye and Samson Ebukam recorded two sacks and have been playing very well as of late.

Even though the impact was more on special teams with a blocked punt, safety Nick Cross did see more playing time than he has in his career at 36 percent. Cross wasn’t perfect but had some nice flashes in what limited time he did see. Perhaps the Colts and DC Gus Bradley use Cross more going forward.

The Indianapolis Colts (7-5) are riding a four-game winning streak for the first time since 2018 following a wild 31-28 overtime win against the Tennessee Titans (4-8) on Sunday at Nissan Stadium.

Coming back from a 17-7 deficit at halftime, the Colts fought their way to force overtime on the road. It wasn’t always pretty, and there certainly were moments when it appeared the winning streak was going to come to an end.

However, Shane Steichen’s squad continues to show fight, a testament to the culture that is being built quickly under the first-year head coach.

Analysis

• Unsurprisingly, RB Zack Moss (94%) dominated the backfield snaps and took 100% of the running back carries in Jonathan Taylor’s absence.
• Rookie Blake Freeland (96%) replaced RT Braden Smith, who injured his knee on the opening drive and didn’t return.
• With a fully healthy tight end room, the snaps were pretty evenly distributed between Andrew Ogletree (39%), Kylen Granson (34%) and Mo Alie-Cox (34%).

Analysis

• There was more of a split at free safety between Rodney Thomas II (67%) and Nick Cross (36%) so that will be something to monitor moving forward.
• Ronnie Harrison Jr. (26%) continues to serve as the No. 3 linebacker following Shaquille Leonard’s departure. He more than tripled his snaps from Week 12.
• The rotation at the one-technique will mostly come to an end with Grover Stewart set to return from his suspension this week.
