Colts' Special Team vs Packers' Special Teams
The Colts
special teams unit made the difference versus the Jets last week.
Where Jet Kicker John Hall missed two long field goals, Colt Mike
Vanderjagt made three of three. In addition, the Colts
successfully executed a fake field goal on a fourth down and nine,
with Punter Hunter Smith speeding down the sideline, narrowly missing
the endzone.
Green
Bay's special teams are coming off a game where they did the Colts one
better and actually scored off a fake field goal versus Tampa Bay.
Looking at the kicking stats, K Ryan Longwell is 23 of 26 and P Josh
Bidwell is averaging 38.7 yards per punt.
While
the Packers might enjoy a slight edge in kick return yardage, the
Colts have the stats and the confidence to claim overall
advantage.
