The key to Thursday night’s game will be whether Indianapolis can generate enough offense against a Denver defense that came alive last week in a shutout win over the Jets. Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett has three rushing touchdown in his last five home games. Running back Frank Gore is coming off a season-high 130 rushing yards in last week’s loss to the Bills. He needs just 59 scrimmage yards against the Broncos to become the second player in NFL history with 12-plus consecutive seasons with 1,000-plus scrimmage yards (Emmitt Smith, 13).
