NFL Week 10, 2019: 5 Teams on upset alert
By Dan Parzych
2. Indianapolis Colts
Speaking of teams with questions at quarterback, the Indianapolis Colts arguably caught a break with Jacoby Brissett’s injury only turning out to be minor, although it will be interesting to see if he ends up playing against the Miami Dolphins.
Since the Dolphins are just coming off their first win of 2019 last Sunday after defeating the New York Jets, this would seem like the perfect game for the Colts to rest Brissett since they’re heavy favorites for a reason.
However, just because Miami only has one win to their name entering Week 10 doesn’t necessary mean they don’t have what it takes to earn a second one by upsetting Indianapolis on Sunday.
Keep in mind this is a Colts team that has already had a few close calls against teams with losing records over the last few months, and even though the Dolphins have been a laughing stock for the most part, this is also a team with nothing to lose.
If Ryan Fitzpatrick were to somehow put together another one of those strong outings with multiple touchdowns, Miami could actually have a shot to pull off an upset over Indianapolis.
And if Brissett is unable to go, it only increases the chances for the Dolphins.
